Interesting signing for Creighton.

It’ll be fun to see if this guy is any good compared to NCAA talent.

Marquette staff determined that the German sharpshooter stunk and wasn’t worth it, but Doug and Co like the looks of this guy apparently.

Euros are tough to project, but sounds like this guy has been playing against pros the last couple years. Creighton fans are very high on him and honestly I don't understand how he's even eligible. Will be interesting to see if he can make an instant impact.

Xavier brought in three Eastern Euro guys late for last season (one classified as a senior because he'd played for a reserve pro team) and the staff and fan base were quite disappointed with them and their lack of production. Walking out of Cintas after the MU game I was talking with some X fans (a very gracious fan base, in my experience) and they talked about Miller bringing in the Euros who were too soft and couldn't adjust to Big East hoops. All three have moved on from X to lower level programs. We'll see if this guy follows a similar path at CU.

Most of those foreign kids that came to play for Lloyd at Az were underwhelming too if I recall

Creighton new recruit touted as immediately contributing

Saying he could be one of the best players in college basketball is a lot of hype. We'll see.

Georgetown's non-conference schedule has been released with EIGHT buy games. Two road games, at WVU and at 'Cuse. The only legit home game is against ND.

Isn't that basically the same thing Cooley did at Providence?

This does not take MTEs into account, but Providence having a lower quality of schedule (based on T-rank) than DePaul is incredible:

This is probably a good thing for the BE.  Georgetown should have the physical talent to beat these teams by 40.  If Cooley doesn't let his foot off the gas, Georgetown can get 8 boosts to its NET ranking.  And then lose a bunch in the Big East.

Smart move by Mr. Cooley. Needs some momentum.

Nova's AD is heading to Northwestern. That's three high level BE AD jobs open.

Xavier picks up former MU target Nyk Lewis. He chose X over The Hall, Gtown, and Creighton

https://247sports.com/college/xavier/article/scouting-nyk-lewis-and-his-fit-at-xavier-235283579/

It’ll be interesting to see
A) who’s the better BE player out of the gate in year 1 and
B) who ends up as the better BE player in the long term

Between Nigel James and Nyk Lewis.

Similar size around 6ft, although Nyk has the edge by an inch or so and 10+ lbs, but if my memory isn’t mistaken their games aren’t exactly apples to apples.
Nyk with the slight edge in the national rankings as well.

Shaka was highly interested in both so it’ll be interesting to follow. Seems as if there was a shift to Nigel but that could be because he realized Nyk was heading elsewhere.

One of the sneaky smart moves in recruiting a 6’2 or smaller PGs, imo, is that even if he lights the world on fire you’ve got a much higher chance of keeping him around for 3/4 years because the NBA doesn’t leap at “little” guys anymore. In that sense, we should get to see them going against each other for several years.
For that reason, my money is on our guy to answer part B above.

As an aside, I always felt bad for Markus because of what 3-5 extra inches would’ve done to his life when it comes to income and NBA success.
I know there’s no guarantee he would be the shooter/scorer he was at 6’4, but man that kid had a talent that needed just a few extra inches.
I digress, but that’s what she said after all…

Yes, a 6'4 Markus.probably leaves after his sophomore year, is on his second contract in the NBA, and is compared to Curry.

Except that Curry is an amazing ball handler and Markus’s handle is loose.
