Wow that's great news. Creighton starting to feel the impact of Big East membership in the recruiting battles it seems.

In the year since picking up a Kansas scholarship offer, a handful of major programs have joined Kansas and K-State in the race for Ballock. Oklahoma and Oklahoma State have offered.

Ballock’s reputation as an elite-level shooter was cemented, in part, during a trip last summer to Steph Curry’s camp in the Bay Area. Ballock was recognized as the top shooter at the elite camp, and ESPN analyst Fran Fraschilla, a close observer of the Kansas program, took notice.

“Kansas fans, I hate to get you too excited,” Fraschilla tweeted after the camp, “but … Eudora soph, Mitch (Ballock) put on a shooting show at @StephenCurry30 Select Camp. NBA range.”

This is even more impressive the more I read.

Creighton up to #3 on 24/7 in national recruiting for 2017. Wasn't really sure we could recruit at this level, but BE is paying dividends!! He has a KU offer and they were the heavy favorites, so this was a nice surprise (He lives about 10 miles from the Kansas campus!)

I think Creighton can become the Syracuse of the "new" Big East. Without the scandals and obnoxious fans.

I'd be happy to settle for "the team everyone loves to hate".

Congrats Jays!
