Nightclub Bouncer Says University Of Cincinnati Basketball Players Assaulted Him

(WSCR)If the reports from Fox 19 in Cincinnati are accurate, this wouldn't be the first time basketball players from the University of Cincinnati were involved in a fight.

You remember this, right?

Well, according to this report, the boys from UC were at it again this weekend. A bouncer at PLAY night club filed an official police report Sunday claiming he was punched and kicked by several members of the Bearcats basketball team while he was working Saturday night.

Here's the report:

Brian McLucas said he asked several UC basketball players to move from a section in the club's VIP area. "I know for a fact that they were UC basketball players because my boss told me they (were) whenever he said I'm letting these guys go up on stage and hang out for a while," said McLucas

The PLAY bouncer said the players sat down at someone else's VIP table. "I'm asking you guys to get up. You're drinking her alcohol," said McLucas. "And I said, you guys are making rude racial remarks towards her. And I said you guys need to get up."

The players apparently refused to move and became rather vocal at that point. "I said you guys need to calm down. And whenever I did that I looked to the right of me and right as I looked to the right of me I seen the dude take three quick steps and punch me in the eye," said McLucas.
