CINCINNATI (AP) — Cincinnati coach Mick Cronin has an aneurysm and will be sidelined indefinitely while doctors decide how to treat it.
The unruptured aneurysm was detected when the 43-year-old coach got tests this week to see why he’s been having headaches. There will be more tests before doctors decide what needs to be done.
Cronin was ill but coached during a 71-62 overtime home victory against No. 19 San Diego State on Wednesday. Associate head coach Larry Davis will run the team in Cronin’s absence.
A team doctor said Cronin is doing well. The Bearcats are hosting VCU on Saturday.
An aneurysm is a bulge in the wall of a blood vessel. The school did not disclose the location of Cronin’s aneurysm.
