Well done guys.

I checked in when you were up 17 and checked back when they hacked their way back to 6 down. Way to hold it together.

Good seeing the Jays and the C-Link again.

Place was pretty amped up last night. Jays got ahead big but Memphis pressure caused troubles for a while in the second half.

Nebraska - TCU tomorrow. A husker win means CU would have a chance to redeem our early season loss in Lincoln with a home game to advance to MSG. A TCU win means the Jays head south. Never thought I’d say it, but go big red.

I never thought about it before this year with Xavier in it, but home NIT games have to be a great source of unexpected revenue, even if tickets tend to be cheaper than regular season tickets.

It does kill attendance numbers though, Creighton got 6k and 7k for their games which will greatly lower our season average of 17K.

Billyjack, they have changed the name from C-Link to CHI Health Center this year because CHI paid more. It now sounds like you are going somewhere to get a health checkup, not going to a basketball game. Hopefully like a colonoscopy for visiting teams! In any case we haven't come up with a good nickname and CHI Health Center doesn't exactly roll off the tongue. We need something like "The Dunk" or "Clink" or something that makes sense for the name. The good news is that they obtained the naming rights for 25 years, so there is time!
