The Bluejay Underground: A Creighton Sports Message Board

Made it into his top 5 along with Nebraska, Tulsa, Purdue, and Houston

I cant really look at top five's the same since Tugs. Is this a real top 5 or a fake for show top 5 ala Tugs, who knows anymore.

Tugs was very strange all around. I wouldn't paint others like him.

Be a Jay Keyshawn!

Really like this kids game. https://twitter.com/okhoopsreport/statu ... 3707881472

He'd be a really solid addition

I always find ones like this to be puzzling.

The videos and stuff online suggest that this kid would be a good get and a good addition. The staff must feel that way, because they've made him an offer.

But the list of his "top 5" is not all that impressive. Creighton is pretty clearly the best basketball program on that list, and arguably by a whole lot. So what is the common strand to suggest what he's looking for and what kind of a talent he is for that to be the final 5 list and this to look like it would be a good get? When we're competing largely with other schools in the conference, or other smaller schools with big programs, or all geographically similar schools, or schools who have been to the tourney a lot and not broken through, etc., it's easier to find a common thread. Ones like this, it's a little confusing.

You think Creighton is a better program than Purdue, and by a "whole lot"?

He also had offers from K-State and Okie State, but eliminated them, so there is that! Not a great offer list, but offers from 5 major schools and counting if he does well this summer!

Lol, come on, Purdue. Tulsa and Houston also tend to get some super talented players. It's just the coaching that leads to average teams. The Frank Haith effect.
