The Bluejay Underground: A Creighton Sports Message Board

AND we still have roughly 2 months left for the current year/season . 8 regular-season games, the BET, and potential post-season play ahead.
Folks getting ahead of themselves?

IMO the writing's already starting to appear on the wall for a couple of guys.

I agree, there appear to be a couple guys who aren't playing much/at all that are likely going to consider moving on. I only mentioned reef as a possibility because his situation reminds me of Davion from a couple years ago where he's hurt, loses his spot to younger guys and probably won't be "the man" like he would want. I have no knowledge if anyone wants to leave there just appear to be a few guys who are more likely to leave than others

Jays need a big and a SHOOTER. This kid is an athlete but not a shooter.

It's early. College basketball isn't what it used to be. The Jays won't know exactly what they need until we get to the offseason. Attrition is more prevalent than ever. By God, I don't want to lose anybody from this team that has so stolen my heart, but nothing would surprise me.

I really liked DJ's tape. Stats were great too: 22.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, 5 assists, 2 blocks as a junior. Noted strong defender. CU may have the thinnest rotation in college basketball right now. I think we can find a place for him. Stay in touch.

Just looking at the rosters, we ought to be top two.

King even higher ranked at upstart site On3.

He'd be a perfect addition. A year to work into the rotation behind Kalkbrenner and then he should be ready to start after Kalkbrenner goes to the NBA. Think an article said he would enroll at age 17, so was originally thinking about taking another year and coming to college in 2023.

Is athletic and has really long reach as well, so some of the defensive concepts we currently do might transfer to him nicely as well.

AND Mac has a track record of getting the most possible out of big men. You could see Kalkbrenner's potential as a Frosh, but the jump last year was simply amazing
