The Bluejay Underground: A Creighton Sports Message Board

#RollJays's intuition/information was spot-on. Dotzler has hit the portal.

I get everyone's appreciation for the Dotzler family and what they've done for the Omaha community. And, I thought Josh was a good player in the Missouri Valley (especially before his injury). But, I struggle with how so many people feel this is a huge loss. He largely played against mop up duty, and he had turnover issues against much lesser teams. If his last name was Smith (or Lawson), would we consider this a huge loss? If he was really ready to play, he would have played a little more this year. His best offers besides CU were Mo Valley schools. I expect he will play at a much lower level.

Omaha would be a nice fit.

Exactly. I thought I was alone on this. Did not shoot 3 well in Bahamas or when he had a chance in his very limited minutes. Also 3 assists in 77 minutes with more turnovers doesn’t scream PG. Did go to the rim
well and after a full year it seems a mid- major gig to prove your chops is in order. Hope he proves me wrong.

Hearing Drake or St Louis. Both great spots for Josiah!

It is done.

Pick and pop with Cream Abdul Jabbar!

Good luck, Josiah!
