Chris Obekpa’s Recruitment: The Drinking Game

Mick Cronin is working diligently to upgrade the talent on Cincinnati’s roster. He, like most coaches at UC, has proven to do more with less. The next step is to land top-tier recruits like other upper-echelon teams in the Big East. That has been the one challenge Cronin has strived to overcome during his time coaching the Bearcats. Landing New York City power forward Chris Obekpa would be a step in that direction. Unfortunately his recruitment has been nothing short of a massive headache. While he’s been supposedly a strong UC-lean for months, he has let both signing periods pass by without giving a commitment to any school and few people outside of his inner circle have nary a clue about what his plans are. Now it’s being reported that Mr. Obekpa might be shying away from Cincinnati because of the Octavius Ellis punchfest at the downtown nightclub.

The headache just became a migraine.

As of now, it’s become frustrating to the point of humor. So to make light of the situation here’s a helpful drinking game in case you need to seek the comforts of alcohol to deal with the craziness:
