would look pretty attractive to a player with Bowen's skillset.

+2. For the reasons stated above, our resources couldn't possibly be spent better than going after a consensus 5-star player at this point. Worst case scenario, we miss out. Either way, this class is going to end up as one of the better classes ever for Creighton. Two top-75 guys, and a third in Hunter Thompson who has a really high ceiling according to the recruiting gurus.
