Yancy Gates opened the season with a double-double. His coach thinks he can do better. The 6-foot-9 Cincinnati senior missed four of seven free throws but still scored 15 points and had 11 rebounds in his 14th career double-double and the Bearcats (No. 22 ESPN/USA Today, No. 21 AP) opened their regular season with a 65-40 win over Alabama State on Sunday.
