Vegas baby

Start this thread for all things In ERA tourney. Lots of Jays fans on the plane so should be a good turnout

It’s cool when everyone stays at the same place. Saw Nate Oates. Talked to some Rutgers fans who are feeling about like we are after the weekend

Up first is SDSU. Have had our number over the years. They are beat up though. Best player is probably out. So we have a chance

Time to flush the sker game and move on

2024-25 BJB show/podcasts

Today we officially kick off the season of shows and our coverage of the 2024-25 season. Lots of cool stuff still in the works but can share this much with you so far.

First BJB Monday show kicks off today live at 6pm. We will have the newest grad assistant and longtime friend of the show Jahenns Manigat on to discuss his journey after CU what he has seen with this years team so far. We will also update fall sports and introduce some new things as well.

We will have a new segment on a regular basis called Dumb Basketball questions. Now first the questions really aren't "dumb" but to players n coaches they probably seem like it. These are questions about the inside workings of the basketball team and program and everything that goes into it. It can be anything at all that you may have wondered about. It may be what the strength n conditioning looks like, nutrition questions, how much time do coaches spend at the facilities, what do road trips look like, what do halftimes in the locker room look like etc. It can also be game day production related- keep these on a factual level (in other words don't ask a question like why is the blue crew still there?) To give you an idea we are going to kick it off with this question tonight--How does the academic schedule work for a player so that it doesn't interfere with the basketball activities during the season and all of the logistics that go with it??

You send questions via DM here, DM us on twitter or send an email to Bluejaybanter@gmail.com. We will get to your questions in the order they are entered. We will only use first names when asking the question. We are opening this up to the general public via social media as well.

Second, we are giving fans the opportunities to come on during a segment, give their opinions and ask questions. I know no one likes to come out from behind the computer screen but this will be a lot of fun and give us a chance to interact with viewers. Prizes for appearances. Contact us if interested in the ways we listed above.

We are also going to get our bold predictions segment going again. If you have any predictions on anything related to Creighton hoops give it a shot. We will keep track thru the season and the winner will win a prize yet to be determined. It can be game related. the whole season, it can be team or individual related, we will also take predictions on Big East teams and college teams at large. again contact us as listed above.

Excited about the season of shows and hope you watch!

BJB Infusion Brewing Event 11-21-24

First thanks everyone that participated in the poll. Second, I have stickied this thread so its at the top for the next week.

We are going ahead with the event at Infusion Brewing. And happy to announce that Ryan Kalkbrenner we be at our event. We will also have members from the CU coaching staff there as well. Still in the process of adding others to enhance the event. Here are the details--

Event will start at 6pm. Plan right now is to hopefully have a Q and A with staff at some point. Then we will begin a live show at 7pm. Kalk will be there for one hour. We will have him on our show and then the rest of the time--(aprox 45 minutes) he will be available for pictures, autographs etc. RTI Threads will be there as well, with CU and Kalk merchandise for purchase so you can get unique items.

Planning to give BJB members and their guests tokens/drink tickets to use for the event.
More on that later

We have to do a couple of things to manage the event. First this will be a 21 and over event. Second, we need to get a sense of how many are coming to help with logistics and with staffing at Infusion. So send me a DM, send an email to blejaybanter@gmail.com or text me if you have my number. Just need to know how many are coming. You can add to this as the week rolls along. We do have a cap on attendance (if we get that kind of response) so first come first serve. Lastly, looking for a couple of sponsors for the event to help defray costs. We have one lined up already and cost is minimal and a great way to promote your business.

More details posted here as they become available throughout the day and week. Any questions totally reach out to me at any time. This is going to be a great event and get us ready for NU the next day. Thanks!!!!

Other BE teams 24-25

Really enjoyed games last night despite the dreaded whip around coverage.

Ohhh, DePaul. Did the Holtmann era end before it even began? Demons still awful

SH - not great. They are really going to miss Richardson

SJU - rolled. Didn't get to see a lot of that game.

Butler - bizjack sat and I think he's one of their two best players. And cuonzo maybe recapturing his Springfield magic. They pulled it out, but it sure wasn't pretty.

Marquette - yeah. Kam Jones. Will challenge for league MVP

PC - that was one of bigger surprises to me. Expected more, but maybe the longer Cooley is gone the more they may regress. English was good last year and looks like a good recruiter. Will be watching PC closely.

X - another surprise struggle. Freemantle was good and the pickup from Indy St was really good.
