TCU Home and Home

^Creighton sure is up east

If Creighton is the best you can come up with, you are totally proving Stallion's point.

10 years from now, you can have Player X choose Creighton while Player Y chooses TCU, a lower-rung P5 basketball school.

During these 2 players 4 years of attending their respective schools, the P5 school TCU could conceivably earn one quarter of a BILLION dollars more than the non-P5 school Creighton.

Tell me again how Creighton competes?

Stallion simply said that the Big East was a Power conference. Creighton is in the Big East. My statement was not intended to be taken further than that.

Creighton got into the Big East because they are a natural fit for that league - Catholic school that is pretty much basketball only (ok, they're historically pretty decent in baseball, too).

Zman89,

LA asked if SMU had ever played ND in hoops.

SMU's only NCAA tourney win in almost 30 years was against ND.

Kato Armstrong, one of my all-time favorite players, was the PG on that team. He destroyed the Irish that night.

And this has what to do with SMU playing Notre Dame so that people from his hometown would have a chance to watch him play live.
