Wow, that Creighton team is fun to watch. Would love their coach when Fran is done.

It’s amazing the program they’ve build at Creighton. Crazy good environment too.
Creighton doesn’t have football, so they really go full bore on basketball. They’ve always had a strong program, IMO.
Yep. Altman built them into a formidable program all the way back in the early 2000s.
Plus they have the advantage of Jaysker fans, who are just despicable human beings.
Two key things that differentiate Jesuits from mainstream Catholics: they believe in Science and are good at basketball.
Why would he take a step down from a place like Creighton to come to Iowa?
He's got it made there and would be crazy to leave IMO.
And for whatever reason, he wasn't very successful at ISU. Seems like Creighton is a good fit for him.
And he's 60. Let's look for someone not knocking on the door of retirement.
Creighton had been struggling a bit this season, but it looks as if they may have found their footing. Nice win!
I grew up fairly close to Omaha, had several friends who went to Creighton. I cannot remember a time when they had a protracted time of mediocre hoops. When I was in high school, Paul Silas was playing for them.
Only time when they were mediocre was the two year stretch after Doug McDermott graduated. And they were a slam dunk final four team that third year (think they were like 19 or 20 and 1) before injuries wrecked the season.
Creighton has a great coach who is a fun guy, A native Iowan from little Cascade in Dubuque County, he has been a consistent winner whose own son was a first team All-American player. Maybe our coach after Fran? No., he is perfectly happy being with a year-in and year-out good and positive program. And their basketball website forum is about twenty times as positive as Iowa's.
