Colorado vs Creighton - Closed Scrimmage this Saturday

massive tool
How do you "lose" when you don't keep score and play is stopped every few minutes for coaching instruction and subs are moved in and out liberally to get everyone experience?? That's why the NCAA doesn't allow media coverage, its a friggin' scrimmage, not an exhibiton game!
I don't care if they're not keeping score -- anyone who has ever played KNOWS what the score is at all times. The scoreboard may not have been running, but the players knew.
Score not being reported due o confidentiality agreements is very different than not keeping score.

Creighton fan here; interested in hearing how you all feel about your team this year. Obviously losing a talent like
Burks will be tough, but how do the younger guys look? We're excited about what the season might have in store for us since the last few have been below average. Just so you know...I wasn't at the scrimmage but I heard that Creighton fans enjoyed the 76 degree temperature that day. I also heard that it was 60 degrees in Colorado. Obviously we were excited about warm temp. and hope that our team continues to experience nice weather throughout the season...

Your obsession with temperature is confusing. We like our young guys, but have no idea what kind of team we are gonna be since the team is, outside of one player, completely unproven.

I'm assuming you're joking about the temperature reference? If not, look at the two numbers in the context of the previous discussion on this thread. I'm not looking to overtly break any NCAA rules here. Good luck to you guys during your season.

subtlety much like consistently accurate weather forecasts can be in short supply around here.
At least I knew something was up :lol:
was hoping it would be warmer in boulder since we averaged much higher temps last year, but I hear your team is good a keeping it cold.
Thanks for the info.
I think we'll be a mediocre team this year that should make the CBI or NIT for postseason. I'd definitely bet that it would be better to face us in November than February. Talent level is probably top 60 in the nation, but they haven't really played together and a lot of it is very young. Carlon Brown looks like a 2nd round NBA pick from the wing and Andre Roberson looks like a 1st round NBA pick in a couple years. Too early to tell with the freshmen. The rest of the guys we're familiar with can all do some good things, but they all have holes in their games. It's going to take a while for the freshmen to grow up, the team to develop chemistry, and the coaches to figure out rotations.

I like the post CUBlueJays...nice and subtle, and I especially like that it confused somebody.
I really hope that I'm wrong here, but I honestly think we're not going to do that well win/loss wise. I think we'll be competitive and win some decent games. However, we're replacing a LOT. Buffnik is sort of resident college sports junkie, but I disagree with him on his response to you. I do not think Brown is a second rounder, and Dre has to improve a lot to keep up the nba draft talks. I personally think he will suffer a soph slump, and he will hopefully work his way into a solid second rounder by the end of his career. SHT needs to show us what he can do, and losing Cain really hurts.
We have lots of holes...this team will be fun to watch in my opinion, but let's not expect too much from them based on last season's results. This year will be one where we get to see what 2012-13 has in store. I think we'll see a lot of promise, and yes, 12-13 will be marvelous. But I think NIT is a huge stretch for this team.
Good luck Creighton - I've always liked Creighton, especially when Altman was with you guys. I've been posting in some other threads in this board - the PAC NEEDS to watch out for Oregon. He's pulling in some recruits, and the man can flat out coach. I'm excited to see the OU brand of basketball once their recruits gain some seasoning.

Your subtlety is lost on us around here - have to hit us with a sledgehammer.
he is just going by what has been seen in some mock drafts.

While it is not surprising that there was a 16 degree temperature difference between Omaha and Boulder, I think most of us were hoping that it would be a little warmer in Boulder, or a little cooler in Omaha. We, too, are looking forward to a lot of warm weather in Boulder this season.

Not unexpected, I'm expecting a decent year in league play, but the OOC could be a bumpy ride for a few weeks until we get some cohesion developed. Consider it a great sign if we go 2-1 in Puerto Rico

Was there a previously not seen warm front that moved through Boulder?
Dude, SIU. Go Salukis!
are you going to post your weather report?
Alright, I'm really confused. Where's Tom Skilling when you need him, I need to know the weather/score of the scrimmage.

Yes it seems as if there was a heat wave that came through boulder and a bit cooler in omaha.
come on. Was it hotter in boulder than it was in Omaha. Do you know the exact temps?
