Sources: Creighton coach Greg McDermott is retiring after this season, with the job being passed on to coach-in-waiting Alan Huss, per me and @jeffborzello. McDermott has won 365 games in 16 years at Creighton.

[Paint Touches @PaintTouches]

I don't think I'm being harsh when I say Chase and Ben failed this season. This was their #mubb team, and they were not able to fill the roles set out for them.

But the on court disappointment does not mean I'm not grateful for everything they gave Marquette the last 4 years.

Nah he'll get more than 1 year, but (I hope) it won't get to that point

[Marquette_g @Marquette_g]

@BE_GoldenEagle I actually think Warm is where it should be. He gets another year, but it is fair to question whether he's the right guy.

[Dan Daitchman @MU_bball]

@AaronLemingNFL Ok I'm curious. When did you take it for granted in the past?

#Bears All-Pro selections:

1st Team: Joe Thuney and Kevin Byard
2nd Team: Darnell Wright

[Chris Emma @CEmma670]

The Bears had three players selected to the Pro Bowl: Joe Thuney, Drew Dalman and Kevin Byard.

[Dan Daitchman @MU_bball]

Been saying the same, and am surprised more people aren't saying it.

[Sky Kruse @KruseSports_]

People keep talking about the completion % don’t actually watch the games they just look at the stats.

Caleb has been a lot better at throwing the ball away and living to see another play.

Would you rather CW18 have a higher completion % but take sacks like he could’ve here? #Bears

[Dan Daitchman @MU_bball]

Love this

[Courtney Cronin @CourtneyRCronin]

The Bears are currently the NFC's No. 1 seed. What's the significance of that?

Ben Johnson: "Doesn't mean anything. There's five games left. We've got a long ways to go. We have not been guaranteed a spot in the tournament yet. We have to earn that right. And the only way you can earn that right is by finding a way to win the next game. That's where our sole focus is."

[Dan Daitchman @MU_bball]

@KevinIndrebo can we get a status update? Is he on the court warming up right now???

[Brad Biggs @BradBiggs]

#Bears 576 yards offense today was the 6th most in club history and the most since they had 594 in a 61-7 victory over Green Bay on Dec. 7, 1980.
