I wish! But sadly, the crowd is poor. I think people have forgotten how to cheer and stay loud all game.

It's ok though. I'm confident it will start to come back and the culture of the mid-to late 90s will return.

Still, it's fun watching this team play and I wish I lived closer to be there to support them. Well done!

The crowd here tonight is getting into it. I think we're all a little stunned at the stark difference in the style of play, and how effective it is. Hilton will build and build as the games go on.
I can't believe how Hoiberg has changed things. The team is unselfish, loose, intense defensively, tough...all things that were missing last year. I am amazed.

What did you see?
Just watch and see if you notice his body language...after someone on his team scores, and during timeouts. Seems like he just walks while his team runs to the bench. Maybe he just doesn't show emotion.

I meant all eligibility aside

well if eligibility doesn't matter, why limit yourself to just Brackins and Wesley? Why not throw in Kelvin Cato or Jared Homan while you're at it? Or shoot, maybe the Mayor himself. He could coach and play.

I now no longer hate Wesley Johnson. He did what was best for him, and that was to get away from McD. Diante should have almost done that.

I now feel real bad for all Creighton players.

I never hated him. I knew he had to get away from McD

lol, the reason I picked Brackins and Johnson is because they both played for McDermott and we have a stark contrast here. None of the players you listed played for McDermott. Therefore...
