No idea if Creighton will be linked. But if Indiana State's Robbie Avila starts getting mentions in Omaha, would this be exciting to any Jay fans? I'd be intrigued, but don't find myself overly excited at the possibility.
I think he's interesting. Why? He can play the Let if Fly game, but is also an excellent passer who shares the ball and scored a lot because he was very efficient. Some of that efficiency goes away with a tougher level of competition, but he's not just a 3 pt shooter - he also scored at the rim a lot last year. He was OK against SH and Minnesota, had a terrible game versus MI State, and overall shot .690 2PT and .400 3PT versus top 50 competition in 5 games, and just a little lower against top 100 teams (14 games, .588 and .367)
Creighton's S&C program could do a lot for him as he has just great ball skills - w/ the kind of touch and hands you can't coach, but I'd love to see how good he could be after an offseason like the one Baylor had this past year
Is he following his coach to SLU? Unless Kalkbrenner leaves, he doesn't fill a defined spot for us, but if a guy's good enough you figure out how to make it work on the floor
