[Big East Bar Room 🎙 @BigEastBarroom]

50% of the starters in this years NBA finals are from the Big East.

Best conference in college basketball.

[Boston Celtics @celtics]

Baylor Scheierman is now tied for the most games in NBA History with 20+ PTS on 125% TS.

[Jon Walker @ByJonWalker]

And the hometown hero is back. Jasen Green, Creighton’s most indispensable player this past season, will finish his career where he started it.

A few more returns should be on the way.

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

Big one! I don’t think PC was getting the most out of Oswin — won’t find many stronger bigs.

[Joe Tipton @JoeTipton]

NEWS: Providence transfer big man Oswin Erhunmwunse has committed to Creighton, his agency @RocNationSports told @On3. 

The 6-10 sophomore averaged 6.9 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 2.1 blocks per game this season. Was one of the top bigs in the portal.

@FalveyKStars @BigEastBarroom Excellent stuff here Susan!

V’s Up!

[Max Dolente @Philly_Mays]

There’s a reason why UConn plays better outside of the big east than in conference. Don’t let ESPN tell you that the big east is not a power conference.

@ryancassidycbb Ryan I love this tweet. You’re a hero

[Creighton Men’s Basketball @BluejayMBB]

Legacy.

Thank you for everything, Coach Mac.

@BigEastBarroom Top two sports movie ever

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

Mac and the two players that encapsulate his era at Creighton. Great stuff.

[Coach McDermott @cucoachmac]

These two made me a heck of a coach! So much fun to see them share the court in an NBA game!! #RDJ

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

Through everything that Greg said or did in time at Creighton, it was always so evident how much he cared for his players.

The SDSU locker room moment is a great example. Another came after Creighton got beat by Baylor in the NCAAT in 2014:

[CreighTakes @CreighTakes]

I will never forget this talk that Mac gave after the heartbreaking loss to San Diego State in the Elite 8😢

[Ryan Cassidy @ryancassidycbb]

On a personal level:

Coach Mac is the only Head Coach to make time to join us on the Big East Barroom podcast

When we travelled out to Omaha he found us, stopped to talk and gave us a big hug

A great man who happens to be an X's and O's savant. College basketball will miss him

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

It’s really hard to extrapolate in words what Coach Mac has meant for Creighton University and Omaha as a whole. An incredible basketball coach, but an even better human being.
Thanks for all of the memories, @cucoachmac !

[Jeff Borzello @jeffborzello]

Greg McDermott is retiring after this season, with coach-in-waiting Alan Huss set to take over. Huss left High Point last spring after winning 56 games in 2 seasons.

McDermott made 10 NCAA tournament appearances with Creighton, winning at least one game in each of the last five.

[Michael DeRosa @MDtheDream]

Broke down every single game of the NCAA Tournament here, on the newest episode of the Michael DeRosa Show™️. Give it a listen if you can!

[Ryan Cassidy @ryancassidycbb]

Officially time of year to show the world the quality of Big East basketball

For the next couple weeks we get to put rivalries aside and represent the best basketball conference in America

Let's go Huskies, Johnnies and Wildcats

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

@ryancassidycbb DAW robbed but other than that good list

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

@ryancassidycbb @TopnjNY What the hell

[Chris Thedinga @CThedinga]

@BigEastBarroom @ryancassidycbb Using Doth against me and it fully worked.
