Thanks man, we just couldn't go down 0-2 to start the season. This team has too much talent to do that. Also, with a lot of seniors on this team, their experience really showed. Also, thanks for the kind words on the dynasty. I'm really enjoying it so far. Thanks for checking in and thanks for the comment!

Good wins against Delaware and Nebraska. It must be nice to have someone like McDermott who can consistently score like that.

It was good getting back on track after those loses. We've also played pretty solid in our last two games. Also, the thing I love about McDermott is, he's going to get his 25 points and 7+ boards, it's just how the other players around him can produce. He's also one of my favorite basketball players to watch in real life. Dude can score in every single way. Thanks for checking in and thanks for the comment!

Recruiting Update

Clemmonds has Creighton at the top of his list


Armond Clemmonds - [CREI, ILL, TX]

Austin, Texas
6'1, 170 lb - Point Guard
#26 OVR, #13 POS

Clemmonds is one of the best pure passing point guard prospect in this class. He lead the ABL in assists this past season (13.5). He also isn't affair to knock down the jumper, but he is still developing a 3 point stroke.

If Clemmonds commits to Creighton, he would most likely start from day one.

Best International Prospect, Tamsir Skrocki keeps Creighton on tab


Tamsir Skrocki - [MINN, BC, CREI]

Duluth, Minnesota
6'7, 210 lb - Small Forward
#36 OVR, POS #8

Skrocki will be a huge addition to any team, as he provides a great shooting spark. Skrocki really improved on his all-around game, not just making him a shooter. He can now score in more than one way. However, he is still a very poor defender to say the least.

Skrocki would be a good fit at Creighton, but he'll need to develop better defense.
