Evidently Rutgers burned a kids RS last night in their win against NW. Not saying we should do the same, but desperate times call for desperate solutions sometimes.

 

They burned it the previous game as Emmanuel Ogbole is now out for the season with a knee injury.

Here's the thing with Janowski and Frager.  If they were difference makers coming into the season, they wouldn't have redshirted. At this point, you'd be adding more guys to a rotation to a coach who does not excel at playing too many guys.

I still can't believe Frager gave up his Senior year of high school to redshirt.

Even if he's not playing it's still the fastest way to springboard into the rotation.

Poor decision on his part.  No one should ever give up high school years just to get to college sooner.

lol.....pretty big difference between Cooper Flagg and Branden Frager.  Still doesn't change my mind that you shouldn't give up high school years to get to college sooner.  Just enjoy your high school time and college will come soon enough.

I'm quite sure he has been pretty happy with his decision...

Might be true for you and a lot of people but might be the best decision for him. Hard to judge other people’s personal reasons/decisions on something like that.

I agree.  It's totally his decision and like I said, it's my opinion.  Just don't see a need to make they kids grow up faster than they need to.  You only get so much time in high school as well as college so don't rush it.  He made his decision and as long as he can live with his decision, that is totally cool.  Doesn't affect me at all.

UCLA curb stomped Oregon last night.  Psychologically speaking, I'm not sure that is good or bad.

[hskr4life]

Idk how Washington beat Maryland or how Minnesota beat Oregon, Michigan, and Iowa. BUT we should not lose to either of those teams. That was some ugly basketball.

Ashworth of Creighton banks in a 3 from the corner with 5 seconds left as the Jays get a road win at Villanova. Nova had just made a steal and a layup to take the lead before that.

Wow Brooks Barnhizer out for the rest of the season

Ouch— that’ll take NW down for the count.  It’ll be hard to replace a leader who puts up 17 and 8 game.

[AuroranHusker]

 

Not a current-year NU opponent, but the Mavs have now won 10 of 11. It was "bring your own trash can" night, as that's the celebratory gesture to kick a trash can! lol

I watched it live and that is so Creighton basketball.  They are the luckiest team in the country.

Same— he had just air balled the one. Then they were granted that iffy time out to even get to that banked three look.

Could have sworn his foot was down out of bounds before he called a time out.  I thought after he air balled it, that game was over.  I could have handled if he made the shot from corner cleanly but to bank it in, just unreal.  Only positive is that Creighton wins enough games to make our win against them a Q1 road win.
