Freshman Jacob Evans has been listed as one of the top five potential breakout players for 2016-17 after closing out this season strong.
Cincinnati basketball had a disappointing finish to their 2015-16 campaign, but that doesn't mean we can't look to the 2016-17 season with optimism. The Bearcats are only losing four seniors, and while Octavius Ellis, Farad Cobb, Coreontae DeBerry and Shaq Thomas will certainly be missed, the future is bright with a returning core of Troy Caupain, Jacob Evans and Gary Clark, along with new faces like incoming freshman Jarron Cumberland and NC State transfer Kyle Washington.
