I expect him to sit next season. Very good get and important get as well. The 2021 class is going to need to be a great one if Creighton wants to stay near the top of this league. In 2021, Alexander, Ballock, Jefferson and Mahoney are all seniors

I think Zegarowski could leave too.

So next year, this is going to be a really good team as long as everyone returns. Is Alexander definitely coming back or is there any chance he puts his name in the draft bucket? This team is going to score--A LOT. If they can even moderately improve on the defensive end, then it's a legit FF team. And you guys are due for a healthy season. I expect preseason Top 10 easily, and BIG expectations from the Omaha crew. (No pressure to carry the load for the league next year :lol: )


Rather have this view...

than this one.

As a longtime Creightonian I expect my CU "realistic and pragmatic" brethren to upgrade their annual 18-13 to 20-11 forecasts to 19-12 to 21-10, their normal 9-9 to 10-8 in conf. up to 10-8 to 12-6. They can't handle success and hate optimism.
It's killing them that all the pundits are putting the Jays in their national top 5-10 in the WTE Polls. Must be something the Metro Utilities District (MUD) is putting in their water?

As for me I'd rather be the frontrunner than always attempting to "sneak up" on folks. Knowing that EVERYONE will be bringing their "best shot" is invigorating, challenging, and refreshing...Bring It! This kind of season is the exact reason we joined up. This is what we came to the BE for - to be the best we can be. Ahh the challenge, the intestinal fortitude, the Grit, the excitement...Yes! Brings out the very best in a champion. Bring It!

Pressure? The expectation nationally will be to see if the Jays can win 'em all or the vast majority of games. The Omaha expectation will be to see if Creighton falls on its sword (Omaha IS in Nebraska, after all). There's no pressure - just the confidence, resolve, and heart to go out and kick ass nightly. :lol: ;) ;) I for one love it!

Jalen Windham is committed to Ball State. I had a feeling he'd go to a smaller program in Indiana

Davion Mintz is committed to...............Kentucky.

Wow, did anyone see this coming when he left? I guess blue blood programs don't always go after the blue chips

OH MY

According to Goodman, Tyshon is declaring for the draft and staying there. If this is true, ho boy. That's a big blow. I didn't see that coming.

Losing Mintz sure sucks a lot more if TyShon is actually going.

Mintz wasn't't going to start and his loss wasn't unforeseen. This on there other hand (if true) is

Wow, that would be a huge blow. Hopefully it's not true.
