Jays fans, if you’ve enjoyed the Rewatchability Index, I have a hunch you’ll enjoy the current project I have in the works. More to come!
Thanks for everything, Trey! Jays Legend.
We certainly are not in the Missouri Valley anymore. I really hope we have a roster that can stand up to that competition next year.

If Trey comes back and Jamiya Neal can be the primary defender on the opponent’s best player for extended stretches, it does 2 big things: 1. Allows Trey to defend the second best perimeter player which bolsters the perimeter D. 2. Frees up Trey to spend more energy on O.
That looks frighteningly similar to Steven Ashworth in Omaha against UConn.

Not to mention they’ve played in Maui, they play in the Battle 4 Atlantis next year, they’ve gone to Texas, had a home and home against Gonzaga, etc. The biggest games of the year used to be SIU, UNI or Wichita State.

There are things about CU being in the Big East that still make me pinch myself. In the last few years, I’ve gotten to see them play: -At KU -In NYC at MSG -At home against #1 UConn, #5 Marquette, Villanova, and Alabama And now they get to host KU. This is so cool.
I've added 2 more 2002-03 games to the Rewatchability Index (22 and 94 below). This isn't the best Jays team of the 2000s, but they'd give any Jays team a battle in a 7 game series. They had a star, shooting, athleticism, great depth (inside and out), and a full-court press.
I was in 2nd grade and at school during this game. I got called to the principal’s office because my dad called the school to tell me about this game. It was the only time he ever called the school to talk to me. My destiny as a Jays lifer was set in stone that day.

I’ll probably run this again later when the roster is more set in stone, but with all the current uncertainty, wondering where Jays fans expectations are. What are your expectations for next season for Creighton?
Maybe I’m wrong, but I feel like Jays fans who were fans back during the Valley days are a lot more open to a rebuild/let the young guys cook season next year whereas the new Big East era Jays fans are much more worried about bringing in transfers.
This guy gets it. Also, the fact that this game is #56 on the Rewatchability Index is just another example of how great Creighton fans have had it the last 25 years. So many fantastic games to look back on and enjoy.

@Jays_Classic Yeah, that's true. My hope (even though it probably won't happen) is that NBC would try to bring them over. Part of me has never understood why Fox got the Roundball Rock rights, but then never cut up well like NBC always did
Ryan Kalkbrenner is officially an early entrant in the 2024 NBA Draft, though he reportedly maintained his eligibility and could return to CU. A look at his legacy, and a highlight reel of his best moments: whiteandbluereview.com/kalkbrenner-en…
Interesting Kenpom nugget on Creighton transfer Jamiya Neal: Most similar comp/season is Alex O’Connell ‘22. If that’s close to the impact Jays can get from him, this gets me a lot more excited about this signing #RDJ
THIS is Nebraska ♥️ Husker players delivered supplies to Omaha for Creighton’s tornado relief drive ahead of tonight’s game. #NebraskaStrong
@MrC_Mathematics We were riding high, and then Osiris ended us
@samhuppert We've come a long way since winning 27 games (last 14 of 15) and still not making the tournament. #TheValley
LARRY JOHNSON POSTER IN HIS FIRST WEEKEND WITH DRIFTY ELITE 🤯 @Larrygetbuckets
And when he withdrew from the draft a few weeks later, he did it with a one sentence post on social media; no fancy graphic, no bells and whistles. Super low key. Guessing this year will be the same: we’ll found out if he’s in or not via the NBA’s press release, not from him.
As we wait for news on whether Ryan Kalkbrenner is entering the NBA Draft or not, it’s worth remembering he never actually made an announcement last year. We officially found out via the NBA’s press release two days after the deadline, and even then he barely commented on it.
But on the bright side, at least he’s also undersized and a below average defender
When you’re favorite basketball team signs a 35% career shooter with off court issues
On Friday, Trey Alexander declared for the NBA Draft. Here’s a look back at a historic career, plus a Trey highlight reel showcasing his greatest moments as a Bluejay: whiteandbluereview.com/trey-alexander…
Absolutely not for Pop Isaacs 👎🏻 I hope this is the one time you’re wrong buddy. I DO NOT want that kid in Omaha 🙅🏼♂️
If Kalkbrenner decides to stay, he should just announce with this gif:
The Nebraska tornado stuff is straight from a horror movie. Insane. @_willcompton already reached out about doing something to help. I'm sure we'll have more info to follow soon.
The amount of broken possessions Trey saved in his career hitting a midrange as the shot clock hit zeros with the ball in the air. An all time Jay.
I jumped in late in the second half, and the first play I watched, Kalk fell over like a 145 year old Redwood and Creighton was down 9 and it was like uh x.com/samhuppert/sta…
And this says nothing about when he went from 6th man to emergency point guard his freshman year and they almost beat Kansas in the second round with basically 6 guys on scholarship
Full coverage of Trey Alexander’s decision to head to the NBA Draft coming on WBR later, including a career retrospective highlight reel that we’re excited to debut. For now, we hope all of our readers and their families in Omaha are safe from the tornados this afternoon.
