Any team in the country is going to struggle without one of the best players in the nation and their two top recruits from the past 2 years. Hurley learned his lesson on Sanogo and I think he now realizes he needs to get something like 30 minutes per game going forward or as many minutes as his fouling dictates. Most of our players need to be setup to feel comfortable and get theirs, without our superstar it's hard and people have to do some things they really aren't too comfortable with, Jackson would've been a big help with this too by this point.
I think Creighton is overrated but they're still #11 in the country and it was on the road, looked like we were going to get run out of the building and we made it extremely competitive (one possession game for a long time) until Creighton pulled away late. It's likely everything won't come together in time to save this season because of the injuries. It's sad because Bouknight is so special and we could've been really damn good but it's definitely coming, just most likely have to wait a little longer. Not giving up on the season but it seems to be the likely reality of the situation, future is seriously bright though.
