Had the pleasure of watching Doug impressively close out the Tulsa game yesterday. I was also fortunate to watch Kyle Korver in person at Cintas play a New Years Eve classic against a David West led Xavier team. I would be interested to hear from the Creighton faithful where those two rank all time in the history of Blue Jay hoops?

Doug would have to get my vote for the top spot. Kyle would probably be around #5 or so, although he has gone on to have one of the best NBA careers of any Bluejay.

Doug easily, Korver got up to 2nd team All-American but was more of shooter. McDermott is not only a shooter but also skilled in the post. I agree, Korver is probably top 5 but Paul Silas would probably be #2 behind McDermott.

No disrepect to Kyle, but the answer is Doug by a longshot. Dougie broke the all time Creighton scoring record last season as a junior and could possibly (likely?) score over 3,000 points for his career.

Definitely Doug at the college level. Hopefully Doug can go on to have as productive an NBA career as Kyle has.

Doug and Paul Silas are top two, you could make an argument for Silas based on his long NBA career and the fact that his stats are for just three years. Doug has more hardware. Raftery likes to joke that he "held" Silas to 26 rebounds in a game.
