No questioning the effort in the Seton Hall/Xavier game tonight. Those guys all play HARD and fight for boards.

Not really related to our conference, but RIP to Fab Melo

There were a few different threads to post this in so I chose the most basic one.. thecomeback.com/ncaa/big-east-didnt-turn-out-as-planned.html?utm_source=dlvr.it&utm_medium=twitter‘Nova and Jay Wright have established themselves as one of the country’s best teams. St. John’s is improving under Chris Mullin. Seton Hall is resurgent. Xavier, Butler and Creighton have all adjusted well to life in a better league – gradually shedding the underdog mantras that once defined them all as mid-majors.
But there are some outliers to the good vibes this Big East gives off. Despite the Wildcats becoming a more visible program on a national scale, Georgetown has always been a large portion of the Big East’s meal ticket. The recent mediocrity isn’t necessarily sustainable for the long-term health of the conference. There’s also the question of what exactly DePaul is doing, which should puzzle any and all onlookers despite the Blue Demons having a losing record for 10 straight seasons now.

I'd bet a lot of money if he didn't have that ACL injury and did the same thing you'd hear nothing of a suspension.

Here's a really "interesting" quote from that story: "Police told the Omaha World-Herald on Thursday that they do not believe Watson is in custody." What does that even mean? How can the police not know if someone is in custody? I can't imagine the Omaha police department is that big!

All we would have had to do to be on the right side of the bubble now is to be 7th in the league and we couldn't even do it. This year of all years it's pathetic that we aren't even a bubble team given how bad the teams are that are in the last four in, first four out.

And we were picked to finish 4th preseason, IIRC.

Maurice Watson's bond was set at $750,000.00. I have no idea about the veracity of the charges, and certainly the state has the burden of proof, but that is some ugly stuff.
To me, this scandal totally tarnishes the great season Creighton is having, and I would not trade places with them right now in 750,000 years.

You would say that so that somehow this JT3-led program looks better than what Creighton has. No, the action of one player who has been dismissed from the team does not tarnish it for the rest of the Creighton players and McD. Try again.
