Tim Miles and Creighton

[Stiltz Guy]

One thing that I like about Tim is that he isn't afraid to promote Creighton as an important rival and team to beat. If we can consistently beat them (even in Omaha), then we can officially take back our rightful place on top of the state. Tim embraces the rivalry and sees it as a must win. Collier and Sadler feared it, never wanting to prioritize the matchup (probably for fear of not beating them, see Collier's record v Altman = scary bad).

We have to have the confidence as a program to not fear them as a rival. I believe that we will be good enough someday as a program to take them down year after year, but you have to work towards that to get there. Miles gets that.

It does also coincide with them being in the big east. When they are playing Georgetown and Xavier they can be embraced as a game that matters more so than when they are playing Evansville and Bradley.
