I have no concerns about Cotton or Batts. After a couple of games I'll be able to see if Dunn is a true PG or if he is a combo guard.

I know this is supposed to be about your team, but here's something for why Creighton might not do well. A quote from coach McDermott: “The Big East is known to be a smash-mouth league,” McDermott said. “That's not in our favor.”

That is a very good point, Mac was specifically discussing the way the refs will be officiating the games. We are definitely built for finesse, (Even moreso this season than last) so there may be a swing depending on how tightly the games are called.
