I had heard rumors about this last week, glad to see its true. I wish Creighton would get to play more of these games. (kinda hard to make it to an away Big East game with Milwaukee and Chicago being the closest places)

Hopefully Creighton can continue their dominance against IA (Jays have won 7 of last 10 and 4 of last 5)

Jays picked up another HS recruit in Trevon Carter-Givens, a 4 star recruit, who signed with NC State, but was given a release because their coach transferred. He is 6’11” but only 190 pounds. He’ll need to add some muscle, but he is an elite shot blocker and great around the rim.

The Jays training program did good work with Kalk, I'm sure they can get this guy bulking up, too!

Creighton signed 5'11" guard from Oakland that avg 17.7 pts and 6.7 assts last year. It would be his (Brody Robinson) final season of eligibility.

Also, heard a rumor that Fred King might be coming to CU for his final season.

Nice addition for Creighton, but I am a little surprised that he is willing to play his final season likely in a supporting role with limited minutes.

Jays got a commitment from the highest ranked recruit they have ever had today.

5’10” pg Micah Gordon who was ranked #28 in the nation.

She will definitely be the starting point guard next year he kind of reminds me of Mo Watson.
