On Tuesday, WBR’s Matt DeMarinis conducted an impromptu question and answer session on Twitter. Here’s a recap in case you missed any of it:

No idea. Maybe Creighton wanted to make a donation in the form of a buy-game to Kirsten Bernthal Booth's alma mater. https://t.co/6NPK4qNhE0

Interesting. Not Huff? https://t.co/cJKw2W2o9s

Just think rebounding will be an issue and Ronnie is the best at it. Cole is still working his way back. https://t.co/twqso9nM3v

Better to have Cole when they need him most in February/March than run him into the ground in December/January. Just my opinion. https://t.co/4anZnq1j75

any discussion of medically redshirting Huff to not rush things?
— Ryan McLouth (@RyanMcLouth) October 25, 2016
Kind of tough to make a hardship case for a healthy player. He needs to be monitored for the big picture, but otherwise he's ready to roll. https://t.co/1puMn3uDHG

He works as hard as anyone in that gym, and he wants to play in Big Dance. I just hope his body doesn't betray him.

two-parter:
1) what's the most surprising thing fans don't know about this year's men's basketball team 10 days before tip? And— Creighton Otter (@creightonotter) October 25, 2016
I'm most surprised at how competitive Ronnie & Justin have become. It's a night and day difference from a year ago at this time. https://t.co/alg5Bz1d5l

Kind of depends on the performances of the other people on the list, but I'm going with "too high" since he hasn't played a D1 game yet. https://t.co/hL4GQniyjS

biggest weakness going into 2016 for @BluejayMBB?
— Austin (@LetItFlyCU) October 25, 2016
Rebounding is a question mark, but I'll go with turnovers. Playing fast makes the simple plays harder to see. https://t.co/rzciVoBzMH

Fun fact: Jaali Winters broke a DePaul player's nose last season. https://t.co/k6aoUfrrPN

@mjdemarinis Jaylen Agnew getting any reps this year?

I would be surprised if she didn't. https://t.co/zFjp907o4w

what are reasonable expectations for Patton – min/ppg/reb/blocks?

Hmm… I'll go with 25/8/5/1.5. https://t.co/bigcnFJFb0

Zierden, Hegner, Huff in no particular order. Hanson & Patton will have a battle on their hands when Zach is cleared for contact. https://t.co/43rSq3TbzM

@mjdemarinis MBB Conf/Overall record??
— Dan Martin (@DanMart35727361) October 25, 2016
I'll say 25-6 overall (13-5 in Big East play) heading into the conference tournament. https://t.co/9JmTCBrVu7

Someone screen cap this so we don't forget! Wouldn't that beat any regular season record during the Dougie era? https://t.co/76uRIUtuOD
— Austin (@LetItFlyCU) October 25, 2016
Close. His sophomore year they went 25-4 heading into the MVC Tournament. https://t.co/zo9tHN3YYH

bonus points if you can name the four losses without looking….

Oh boy… umm, Wichita State, Missouri State, Evansville, and I want to say one non-conference game that I can't recall. https://t.co/NnEsomRyW1
