I can imagine the pitch now
Miles: Leon this is 85,000 soon to above 90,000 people going insane for a meaningless non con game, can you imagine the atmosphere when were undefeated with Michigan State rolling in here and a shot to clinch the division a play Ohio State in the BIG TEN title game.
Leon: no coach this is crazy Creighton showed me some lame soccer game and their blueprints for their facilities when i may not even be there anymore,
Miles: Now Leon, imagine if you come to NU, 2014 were rolling after a pretty good season NCAA tourney appearance second straight season of sell outs and we play Michigan and Ohio state fresh off of sweet 16 appearances in the first games of the year at Pinnacle Bank Arena...imagine that atmosphere
Leon: speechless, nods head commits to NU then and there.
To play devil's advocate, Creighton could point out the fact that they're coming off something Nebraska's never even seen...
very true...but a the same time all of crieghton's watershed moments are forgetteable to kids of Gilmore's age, the last time they made it to the round of 32 when they beat florida? i was a sophmore in high school...im 25 now. granted they've had success recently with McDermott but, i feel we have momentum hope, THE BEST CONFRENCE IN COLLEGE BBALL!! i think he hears our pitch and tells creighton to kick rocks...if we go after him...if not and we feel he isnt what we need than he go watch all the soccer he can digest...(i can only stand about 5 mintues)
they've won their first tournament game each of the past two seasons.
