@Alex OC11 and @BluejayMBB
Woooh, baby. What great news to receive on Hump Day, huh? As you know, Duke transfer Alex O’Connell is now available to play for Creighton after yesterday’s announcement that all D-1 transfers are immediately eligible. It is a decision that should’ve been made before the season started but better late than never, I suppose. While this is major news for several programs across college basketball, I want to focus on Creighton and AOC for a few reasons. 1) I am a homer. I have been a (some might say) psychotic-level Jays fan for a long time. I fully acknowledge my bias; I just won’t be trying to hide it. 2) Creighton is the only team in the top-25 to add a transfer since the season started. This is an important opportunity that provided a nice boost for the Jays mid-season. 3) AOC is extremely skilled and has to potential to be a key piece on an already-talented roster so I want to provide my thoughts. Let’s dig in.

“He traveled with us and will be able to play,” Pirates coach Kevin Willard told NJ Advance Media via text.
There will also be a perfunctory vote in mid- January to change the legislation going forward https://t.co/ko8rEn8G1x Adam Zagoria (@AdamZagoria) December 16, 2020
Several other Big East transfers are included in the blanket waiver, including Bo Hodges (Butler), Ben Stanley (Xavier) and Alex O’Connell (Creighton).
