The Bluejay point guard boasts a wealth of tools and talent, can he cement himself as a Bluejay great?

The legend of Maurice Watson Jr., of Philadelphia, PA, began when he first arrived in Omaha for the 2014-15 season. The crafty point guard from Boston University was sought as the heir apparent to departing point guard Austin Chatman, yet his full impact was yet to be known. As the bizarre-o season of deflating less-than-5-point-losses wore on, the local media turned their attention to the star-in-waiting in Watson, sitting out a year due to transfer rules, noting that his speed and deftness with the basketball was going to propel him to the top of the BIG EAST point guard depth chart.
