Coach Wes MIller's No. 17-ranked University of Cincinnati Bearcats basketball team will be without Dan Skillings Jr. for a while. The junior swingman had 17 points and 11 rebounds in UC's opener vs. Arkansas-Pine Bluff. The next day, he came in for a video review and his knee was swollen. He sat out the second game.
Skillings had a successful minor knee surgery Monday and indications are he'll be out a few weeks according to UC sources. Recovery period can vary by patient for the procedure.
"Dan's long-term health is the top priority for us, and we have full trust in our medical staff, led by our trainer Bob Mangine," head coach Wes Miller said. "Dan is a leader for our team on and off the court. We know he will continue to push and encourage his teammates. We hope to have him back on the court soon."
Skillings posted on his Instagram Sunday: "Don't forget you have to go through a test to be a testimony, Don't tell God that you have a big problem, tell this problem you have a a Big God!"

We Cover this story from https://www.cincyjungle.com/2024/11/10/24292477/bengals-jamarr-chase-contract-extension-mike-florio written by Jason Garrison
The Cincinnati Bengals and star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, who once again delivered a Madden-like performance on Thursday Night Football, couldn’t reach a contract extension before the season began, leading to Chase’s “hold-in,” which kept him out of preseason action.
Despite the contractual standoff, Chase’s on-field performance hasn’t suffered. Heading into Week 10, he leads all receivers in nearly every major category. He’s on pace to finish the season with career highs: 119 receptions, 1,766 yards, and 18 touchdowns. This puts him in contention for AP Offensive Player of the Year and, with a bit of luck, could even place him in the conversation as one of the rare non-quarterback candidates for NFL MVP.
Instead, they planned all along to pay him a relatively modest $4.8 million for 2024, making any negotiations feel more like a formality than a genuine attempt to secure a long-term extension.
Florio further highlighted that things were far uglier behind the scenes than they appeared. “Behind the scenes, it was uglier than anyone realizes, with fights over fines and a belief by Chase that they’d broken their promise to pay him by offering a contract that looked good on the surface but that had a very bad structure,” Florio reported.
This season hasn’t gone as hoped, and at 4-6, the Bengals face a steep uphill battle to salvage the second half. While it’s not impossible with Burrow, Chase, and a potent offense, the road will be tough. With the talent on this roster, things should have been more straightforward.
Beyond the numbers, Chase’s relationship with the team is crucial for the Bengals’ future. Their offensive success hinges on the connection between Burrow and Chase, which is why the front office should carefully consider the long-term impact of its approach. Keeping Chase happy and appreciated isn’t just essential for the team’s success but also for maintaining the loyalty of a fan base that idolizes him.
Contract negotiations are part of NFL business, but the Brown/Blackburn family’s track record hasn’t always inspired confidence among players or around the league. If they’re serious about bringing a Lombardi Trophy to Cincinnati, they’ll need to show players, fans, and the NFL as a whole that they’re committed to a new era of meaningful, trustworthy relationships with their stars.
The guys discuss the Bengals heartbreaking loss in Baltimore and what it means for the remainder of the season.
The guys preview the Bengals Ravens Thursday Night Game. Is the season on the line?

We cover this story written by James Rapien at Sports Illustrated - https://www.si.com/nfl/bengals/allbengals-insiders-plus/joe-burrow-praises-rookie-wide-receiver-jermaine-burton-after-bengals-loss-to-eagles-01jbc4vk3bmv Bengals rookie wide receiver Jermaine Burton caught a 41-yard pass from Joe Burrow in Cincinnati's Week 8 loss to the Eagles. Burton is one of just four wide receivers (Ja'Marr Chase, Tee Higgins, Trenton Irwin) to catch a pass in the past two games. Burrow went out of his way to praise the rookie who played a season-high 24 snaps. "It was nice to see Jermaine (Burton) make a play today. I think Jermaine is going to be a good player," Burrow said. "He continues to get open, and we’re going to continue that dialogue that quarterbacks and receivers have to have. I think he played well today and I think the guys that stood in for Tee played pretty well today.” Burton nearly caught a touchdown, but Darius Slay knocked the ball away in the end zone. The rookie has two catches on the season—both went for 40+ yards. His ability to stretch the field is evident and it sounds like his playing time could increase moving forward. "Jermaine made a great play on a go-route and stepped up, so there's more that he can continue to do as well to help us," head coach Zac Taylor said. "We always love to have Tee out there, because he makes a lot of big plays for us. But I think we're starting to see other guys step up as well, and we've got a comfort level in them. The Bengals desperately need Burton to continue to grow as a player. He brings a vertical threat to an offense that needs someone to compliment Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Burton got off to a slow start this season, but if he's getting more comfortable with the playbook, then there's no reason why he can't make an impact.
