Two top 150 players coming in this coming year, and one top 100 player coming in the year after. I was told that Creighton couldn't hope to recruit with the big boys of the Big East.

I just worry one thing...

Is he "long and athletic" enough?

How odd that this might end up being the best "Arena District" type situation in Nebraska when all is said and done. I can't help but wonder if they're ever planning on doing the Entertainment district thing with open containers of alcohol around the area like they were planning with Shamr...

Am I the only one who finds it odd that there appears to be a significant building between 11th and 12th and Capitol in both of the KETV images? Like its barely there, but it's definitely there. http://www.ketv.com/image/view/-/25383144/highRes/1/-/maxh/480/maxw/640/-/tns2k4z/-/VIEW6-1017-jpg.jpg h...

From my understanding, it could begin next month. So right after the vote I guess.

Ah. Makes sense.

Backin up, backin up..

I'm going to guess it's going to be filled with mearheads calling each other "brah".

MadMartin8

I thought tiff was already approved?

Yeah, this is still on track. Lol.

MadMartin8

We can probably move this back out of the "Projects Never Built", and put the Shamrock Development in here.

Probably Dirk.

Kinda wonder how long the Erstad experiment will last.

MadMartin8

They want to fight this development? Fine, put in section 8 housing on that spot instead. Time to get over our NIMBY temper tantrums.

Maybe Mid-April or May....er June? July perhaps?

Question: will Nebraska be long this upcoming year? What about potential new coaches? Long or no?

MadMartin8

I'd take a team of fast shooters who can create shots (what we may have coming in with the redshirts and two new guys) who may miss some shots over the slow shooters (minus Doug of course... And Brooks who is a trainwreck) anyday. As far as "length", what's the fascination with this lately...

MadMartin8

Or at least aren't afraid of getting within 3 feet of that rim. We can work up to touching, right now we need to make baby steps.

MadMartin8

We'll miss Doug, of course, but Gibbs and the rest of the Hot or Nots? Not so sure. Time will tell in 2 years how the recruits pan out. There is some tremendous promise coming in, and if ome can't see that they're possibly blind. Who coming in can match up with Baylor's athletes? Jesus Christ, Sant...

Nice start. One win and done again?

Creighton needs more athletes for when the shots don't drop, like now. *sigh*

MadMartin8

Their Aebleskivers are absolutely beyond amazing. Definitely something to try if you ever get the chance.

MadMartin8

Well, if all else fails, it could be turned into The Super Yard! That's a lot of parking!

I like having the inside game better than be dependent the 3 game (I'd prefer to have both, but yeah). I think it's a higher percentage chance to be honest.

Plus the Redshirt Hegner.

And I think it might be sinking in to Greg that its going to be a while before Creighton has the players to win the conference. A long while... I give it 3 years before contention happens again. They'll have a new practice facility, have a history of tourney appearances, a beautiful arena, and a st...

MadMartin8

Bummer. Too bad none of the rest of the team showed up.

As he just hits another big 3!

Maybe he WILL hit up the charts to #4.

If they can come back and win this, I'll gladly take back my "one win and done" statement in the tourney.

MadMartin8

The fact it is remaining this close this late is a testament to Doug. Never will see another like him.

MadMartin8

Actually if you were watching the game, Brooks is playing pretty well tonight overall. He has brought a spark and gotten to the foul line and hit the free throws....something no one else has done tonight. He has 4 pts, 2rbs and 2 assts in limited action. Yes he does have 2 turnovers, but overall...

MadMartin8

Brooks is fast and all, but his basketball sense is lacking entirely. The team is shooting like |expletive|, and it isn't on the refs for that.

These types of games are the reason I say Creighton is one and done...again...in the tourney.

MadMartin8

Very very outside chance at getting #4, but I think he'll stay at #5 Oh? 3,166-3,078=88 Conference Championship game 25 pts First Round game vs. #14 seed 35 pts Second Round game vs #6 seed 25 pts Third Round game vs #2 seed 25 pts 110 pts 4....

So much for development.

MadMartin8

They haven't even sent final plans to the City Council? So much for that starting in March.

I find it interesting how this article is based on the speculation that things will just fall apart and the debt will overcome the Hilton. More Local Fishwrap angst over the Clink development?

The light should have come on by now for him. I don't think it will.

MadMartin8

Don't underestimate the significance of IZ getting injured also.. we lost a lot of team speed and an impressive shooter when he went out. That's what Creighton lacks. Having shooting skill is all nice and dandy when the shots are falling, but having 4 guys sit on the parameter waiting for the three...

MadMartin8

They played better without Grant Gibbs. Is that odd to say?

MadMartin8

Anyone want to lay odds on the Crossroads bond succeeding? If it's executed with the same bookkeeping as the Qwest/Centurylink, I'd say it would not succeed. It's making record revenue, yet its debt is not being paid off in record numbers. Yet their management makes how much in bonuses? http://i...

Doesn't matter how the wins come in late February, as long as they are there.

Just win baby

Great work Garret! I like this quite a bit, allows us to visually see any patterns
