Wow, that was quick, maybe I should have posted that months ago.

There's zero evidence that leads me to believe we can win 3 games in a row in St. Louis. I believe our record down there 3-6 over the last 6 years.

That's always bothered me as well considering JL has done so well in other post season tournament play. I think it's the old playing an opponent for a 3rd time thing or that they are familiar opponents.

Other programs haven't had much of a problem with it. Either our players aren't as good as we are led to believe or it's something else.

Creighton has had a lot of success at winning during the MVC tourney, but not in the NCAA tourney. They've had some very good teams during the past 15 years but can't seem to solve the NCAA tourney puzzle. Funny how stuff like this happens.

BB-I'm not trying to counter your post or anything, just stating how surprising it is to me that Creighton has not gotten some quality wins in the NCAA with good players, a good coach, and several opportunities. Especially since they normally do very well in a tourney setting in St Louis.

I know, I am just making a point. We hang our hat on one year, they hang theirs on a decade. We had one year where we had some NCAA success. They've had a decade of NCAA appearances to go along with their 20 win seasons, conference titles, and conference tourney titles. If I had a choice I know which one I would choose.

I agree. They've built a great program, Which makes it all the more puzzling. They've had it all, but the post season success.

It is like having ice cream every day of your life, or ice cream with chocolate, whip cream and cherries only once in your life.....which do you choose? I could have used another analogy, but this is a family board..

I guess if you can have different flavors everyday then I'd go with that but the if it is just vanilla!

What really looks good is next years soph. class of EM-DN-TB-AT-JW-red shirt WE....this is really something to build on.....Freshman Jordan Prosser and Milos Knezevic with one more ride to give for next season!

[Bradleyguy10]

you forgot WE

And you could possibly add WE to the class as well....


edit - beat me to the punch

[Big Mike]

fixed..thanks 10...that just sounded like too good a class even before WE!

[SFP]

Talking about WE, how long and what is the typical schedule like for his rehab? Will he be able to start practicing with the team from day one next year at 100%?

Also want to give JL and staff credit for using the DW scholie that went to EM....at 1st it didn't make sense but now after the facts with DW and not getting the core scores and grades to play D1....EM seems like even more of a steal IMO! CONGRATS STAFF....with work EM has a chance to be a very good.... if not one of the better PGs in BU history...I cannot recall anyone any quicker with the ball than EM!
