Last Thursday afternoon, Maurice Watson, Jr. announced he was coming back to Creighton, which was met by a lot of joy from Creighton fans and other media outlets that cover college basketball. The Bluejays have a great opportunity next season with Watson’s return, Marcus Foster becoming eligible, a healthy Cole Huff, and Justin Patton coming off a very promising transformation during redshirt season. Needless to say, the hype machine is off and running again.
In addition, on Monday, Watson made the rounds with the local media about his return, his future, and the goals for next season. He stopped first to talk with former Bluejay Nick Bahe on 1620 the Zone’s GameTime program late morning, and in the afternoon he talked with Mike’l Severe on The Bottom Line radio program produced by the Omaha World Herald.
