The only info anywhere that I have seen that links Morrison to Creighton is posted on the Creighton message board and Valleytalk.
Not one of the other recruiting services or junior college tracking sites have him linked to Creighton in any way.
If the rumor is true it has yet to be confirmed anywhere but the message boards, so I guess you can take what you want from this.
I am waiting to see some further confirmation as well.
Some of the discussion that was on the Bluejays board claiming that Morrison was going to sign with Creighton seems to have been removed. There is still quite a bit on Valleytalk.
But one discussion still contains some really speculative stuff, but nothing even close to a confirmation.
You have scroll to the 4th page of the Creighton link before anyone actually mentions Morrison's name, and even then it's still pretty vague, along with some talk that he tore his ACL this past season.
I guess we won't know until he signs a LOI, but I am puzzled at the secrecy if he so certain to sign with CU as one of their board posters had previously stated.
By the way, there was a bit of discussion about this topic on BradleyFans yesterday, here is the link to that thread.

Complete releases from LOI's is a new phenomenon only authorized in October 2004 so we haven't seen too much of it yet.
Researching the LOI site reveals that once released, a kid cannot sign another, you just show up for school. Thus, I'm sure there will be teams trying to dissuade the young man from his decision.
PS - the Creighton discussion centers around his being on campus last weekend and talking face to face to a number of regular posters at the CU site whom I consider very credible.
PSS - I like your avatar.

Here are some facts directly off NJCAA web site.
Ty Morrison, as a freshman (at juco) averaged 9.1 points per game and 5 rebounds per game (31 games).
This past year, as a soph, he missed 14 games with injury (knee), but in 19 games played, he averaged 8.9 points per game, 5.5 rebounds per game.
There were six other players on Morrison's Redlands Community College (AZ) team who scored more points this season than Ty did.
Morrison was also the 6th leading rebounder on his team as well, in addition to being 7th in scoring. (he was only 30 or so points ahead of 3 other guys, so he was barely within the top 10 in scoring on his own team)
Is it possible this guy is overrated?

That is correct.
"The only info anywhere that I have seen" is what was said, and at least I have done some checking...something I always do before being critical.
If you have a source that discusses Morrison's visit to Creighton and his supposed commitment then please show us your source.
Or is it possible you haven't done any checking of your own?
I think I have checked just about every possible place that info might be located, and as I said only on those two sites is there a mention.
Note that I am not doubting Morrison may have been in contact with CU personnel, and might have visited, and who knows, maybe he'll even go there.
But I find it interesting that both the Marcus Sikes rumors and the Morrison rumors are already 3 days old (since Saturday) and no confirmation or announcement yet....

You'll never hear about Morrison until he's in school - wherever. Nor, Scottie Reynolds who was released from his LOI at Okie nor any other LOI releasee. You can't sign another LOI after getting your "complete release" from a prior school. Thus, schools can keep getting after a kid until they start summer school or show up in the fall.
Check the National LOI site.
PS - CU summer school session starts May 15.

There is a new article on Ty Morrison.
(it had been reported that Morrison had committed & was due to sign at Creighton)
A week after he supposedly visited Creighton and said he was done visiting campuses and was ready to commit to Creighton, he shows up on other recruiting visits.
Now he is going to Gonzaga and then Minnesota (perhaps to visit with Jim Molinari?).
So I guess the announcement at Creighton will have to be put on hold.
