Indiana's Maurice Creek suffers severe, season ending knee injury. He is undergoing surgery today, and has played too many games already to qualify for a medical redshirt. This type of knee injury will take all of a year to recover and is reminiscent of the injury Shaun Livingston suffered.
Ironically, Verdell Jones, who is the son of the Godfather of Shaun Livingston, was a witness to last nite's injury to Creek.

Updated USA Today article about the Missouri Valley teams -

This was supposed to be the year in the Valley that the seniors would be dominant...
Eldridge, Josh Young, etc...
but check the Valley players' stats thus far...
very few of the leaders in either scoring or rebounding are seniors. I guess this is good for the Valley's future.

I noticed a thread on P'Allen Stinnett over on the Bluejays' board, was yanked after quite a few Creighton fans got a little hostile.

Here's an Indiana State guy trying to become a two-sports athlete...
Ex- Indiana State Sycamore, Mick Yelovich, entered the World Long Drive Championship and qualified for the final eight with the single longest drive of the competition so far, 403 yeards! Unfortunately he did not win the finals...
Congrats....to Mick.
