Butler is not even in the Top 5.....

Unless he coaches the heck out of them.....

Every WAR type system has Butler with bottom 5 talent......

Congrats to Creighton. Not sure why you singled out us and Butler and didn't include marquette and depaul. Considering nebraska as part of the midwest is really stretching the midwest. They don't have a great plains region?

He singled out Butler and Xavier because they're in the same category. DePaul and Marquette are considered National Universities because they offer doctoral programs, while Butler, Creighton and Xavier do not. Providence was ranked #2 in Regional Universities in the North, while the rest of the schools in the league are considered National Universities.

National Universities:
22 - Georgetown
49 - Villanova
89 - Marquette
119 - DePaul
119 - Seton Hall
152 - St. John's

Just to clarifty, doctoral programs means alot of PhD programs. Creighton does have alot of doctoral programs (MD, Dental, Law, Pharmacy, PT/OT, just not alot of PhD programs....).
