Do you think Maurice Watson Jr. is excited to welcome Kansas State transfer Marcus Foster to the Creighton backcourt this season? Just take a listen.
“We’re not only going to be the best backcourt in the BIG EAST, we’re going to be the best backcourt in the country,” Watson Jr. proclaimed.
If that’s true – or even close – it’s going to be fun to watch the Bluejays return to the top tier of the BIG EAST conference after a two-season hiatus. Last year, Creighton finished 20-15 overall and 9-9 in the league.
Foster, part of a strong newcomer class for head coach Greg McDermott, sat out last season as a transfer after earning second-team All-Big 12 honors as a freshman at K-State when he averaged 15.
