I really need to get to a game. I used to make it to 1-2 each year, but I don't think we have gone since Covid. I really enjoy going, but my wife not as much, especially when its 1,000 degrees outside.

It’s only $5 but since when did they start charging to park in the gravel lot at Werner park? The other lots had a fee but that was the benefit to park on gravel was it being free. If they are going to charge the same amt, they should probably pave it.

Josiah Dotzler has entered the transfer portal. I knew it was possible, but I didn’t think he would. It’s just weird to lose a local guy.

Although just because they entered, the portal doesn’t 100% mean they are leaving, but usually that is the case

All that you mentioned would be a dream scenario. Unfortunately, Baylor can't come back, but having those other 3 would be great. I do expect a little more from Ashworth next year since he now knows the system and pace better. Trey is still the least likely to come back, but you never know.

Didn't know where to put this, but has CHI ever inquired about hosting the Big 10 conference basketball tournament or the women's regional? They have hosted the men's 5 times, including the regional once. The Big 10 seems to rotate between Chicago, Indianapolis, and Minneapolis, but Omaha would be a...

Figured this one was coming too, but Jonathan Lawson is in the portal. He only scored 11 pts for the season, so not that big of a loss. Expected him to play more since he was a 4* recruit out of high school, but clearly coaching staff didn't see what they wanted from him.

skinzfan23

yes, I am not sure that most realize how hard it is to get in that shape. Constantly throughout the season you could see how well conditioned CU was, other teams were subbing and their players still hand their hands on the knees constantly. The leap from high school is already challenging but to pla...

Well, got one answer….Brock Vice has entered the portal. Maybe means Kalk could be considering a comeback.

skinzfan23

I think Fred king might, Jonathan Lawson prob will. Other than that Baylor is done, Kalk will either go pro or come back, Trey will prob go pro. No one else really played so I don’t think it will matter much. I also think Dotzler will come back.

Also zeke mayo from South Dakota state has Creighton as one of the 4 schools he is considering :

skinzfan23

Like this interview: doesn’t sound like Trey is giving up coming back to Creighton

Shatel literally went to 2 Creighton games all year. He did not go to the BE tournament or the Jays first 2 NCAA games. Having him give his "expert opinion" is beyond parody. Yeah for whatever reason he and world herald staff were so excited to see the Huskers win their first tournament g...

Again anywhere near 50,000 isn’t going to happen. They would be lucky to add anywhere close to 10,000 in the next decade. Do you realize how many housing units even that would take. I am from CB and there definitely is a stigma that most in Omaha or NE will not even consider living in CB. I wish the...

are there more renderings or specifics? while this is cool and all especially the roof for winter use but it just doesn’t seem all that impressive when every other metro has much bigger water parks and even fun plex is expanding its waterpark I believe They are literally building and modeling this ...

Not the finish to the season the Jays wanted, but they didn’t quit. After that 18-0 by tenn some people gave up but the boys kept fighting and almost got the lead back. Baylor was an amazing player and without him, this team prob doesn’t even make the tournament. Wish Trey would have had a better ni...

I’m in eastern Iowa this weekend and right as we got to our destination there was a huge thunderstorm with tons of lightning, nothing severe but nice to see.

skinzfan23

Jay’s were up one at halftime, and then gave up an 18–0 run at one point (Might be their biggest run they’ve given up this year) Hopefully the big three can come back and finish strong and make it a game

skinzfan23

I’m currently at my in-laws in Cedar Rapids Iowa right now and they don’t have cable, so I went to a bar to watch the Creighton game and all they had was the women’s games on. So I went to another bar and they only have the Duke game on. Turn the Creighton game on, but pretty embarrassing that they ...

skinzfan23

It would be great to add that many, but not going to happen. Where are all these people going to come from? There would have to be something really, really big to draw that many people. No doubt, CB's population is stagnant, they really haven't grown much since the 1960's. Its not like Austin, TX wh...

To further that, Creighton has beaten 2 of the 4 Elite Eight teams so far (Alabama and Uconn). Like mentioned above, none of that matters at this point but it does show that they can hang with anyone. Hopefully tonight is one of those games that they come out hitting shots early. They didn't against...

That is crazy, but if Allegiant were determined to offer the flights for Omaha why wouldn't they expand in the Omaha market more? I don't know a ton about airlines in this regard, is it b/c Southwest is more established and they would worry that their new route wouldn't benefit as much? Unfortunatel...

Thanks for the updated photos, looks good. I am glad to see the extension has a curve to it as well.

Yes it will, I posted this about a month ago and it has risen at least 2-3 stories since then:

I immediately thought the same thing when I saw this yesterday. Also, his youngest son, who’s a senior, has no intention of playing for his dad. So, maybe we will be getting a changing of the guard! That would be a great thing for that program. Fran has said that he is reluctant regarding NIL, and ...

Yeah I have been meaning to take a picture the last few times I was there as well.

Maybe they could use the recycled water from the water park to wash cars?

skinzfan23

Not saying that it won't do well, but I don't think Great Wolf will be happy about it.

skinzfan23

Sounds similar to the proposed Bellevue water park, however Bloomington already has a great wolf lodge. That’s going to be a lot of competition in close proximity.

skinzfan23

They are going to have to market well based on the location though. 100% agree. It really isn't that far of a drive, but if they can market it to out of town visitor at places like the zoo or children's museum, that will greatly enhance their chances of succeeding. I do think that this place could ...

Well at least for the next 10 days it is seasonal or even above average and by the end of that period it will be April so it should be on the upswing.

It is now official, Zeke Mayo from South Dakota St has entered the NBA draft and transfer portal. There had been rumors that he might strongly look at transferring to Creighton similar to what Baylor did 2 years ago.

Obviously Creighton isn't done playing but something to look for.

I try not to get into politics a lot, but there is no question that the city has been better under her. Like all things in life, mostly based on hard work but also a little luck. One thing I will never forget about her is when she walked out during the time with the riots and wanted to explain the c...

I don't have all the answers for you, but the park will be managed by the same company that built the one in TX (American Resort Management) its mentioned in the article but they have even committed to building a $25 million hotel on the property. They actually look like a good company with a decent...
