The Bluejay Underground: A Creighton Sports Message Board

I can see a team like DePaul being all over this. They need to pick up their recruiting and would take a chance on him. Might help them get Tyger Campbell as well.

In all likelihood he's going to Mich State. If however, he should want to come to Creighton - we say bygones are bygones and we take him in. 5-star players on the Hilltop don't grow on trees. We are transfer u after all.

If current players are not on board, there is no way in hell we should be open to it. Chemistry and culture matters a lot.

Do you really want a guy and a family like that in your program? Don't give me he didn't know. I don't care what his lawyer says. Do you really think he suddenly had an epiphany about Louisville? Do you really think he didn't know why "his people" were still shopping him around in June? No thank you, period, end of story for me.

It's amazing how stupid some of you folks are. You are seriously f**cked up if you want this kid and his family in the program.

You know what? I change my mind. It’s not worth it for what would likely be one year of commitment to the program, where he would likely only be committing to himself.

if he was a first tier talent I'd say its worth it. But his high school tapes didn't scream immediate game changer to me. He brings a great combo of size and shooting, but we already have both of those in spades on next year's roster. He was top 25, but talent-wise in the second tier, where I'd also put Mitch and ty-shon. Pass

Tuggs would be locker room poison

Well, it would be Ras and Mac's decision if the choice comes up. And, as I said earlier...It's not like he's coming here anyway.

I don't recall such vehement positions regarding Ricky Kreklow...a kid who jilted us twice. We welcomed him to the Hilltop with open arms. You guys are acting as if Tugs stole your lunch money. 1st tier? 2nd tier? He was listed at 14th, 21st, and 19th dependent upon which source you looked at (ESPN, Rivals, Scout). Mo Bamba? No. Potential great player? Yes. Not that it matters for us. He's probably headed to Michigan State.

Good lord, gtmo. The clear-headed opinions to steer clear of Bowen have nothing to do with being “jilted.” If you can’t see how his situation differs from a guy like Kreklow, there is no explaining it to you.

Hopefully there is absolutely no way we have any conversations with this poison.
