Wonder what Creighton fans are saying about the game? You can check here. Of course you can always see what PC fans are saying at Scoutfriars.com, friartownhoopproboards.com, Friarbasketball.com forums, and at Friarbasketball.com’s Facebook page.

2. Sports Illustrated has a nice article on Bryce Cotton not taking any breathers in quest to get Providence back into the NCAA tournament.

3. Here is an article from Brendan McGair on how the Friar training staff deserves props for keeping the shorthanded Friars healthy.

4. The Sun Chronicle has an article on how Ed Cooley should be Big East Coach of the Year.

5. Both Bill Reynolds in his For What It’s Worth column and John Rooke in his Thinking Out Loud column have some nice takes on the Friars.

Bonus: Tired of being confused by all the different bracketology rankings and who is on the bubble and who is not? So am I. College Hockey is much simpler. Here is a nice breakout of what the brackets may look like in the upcoming NCAA College Hockey Championships.

Bonus 2. What do Paschal Chukwu, Donovan Mitchell, Jarred Reuter, Jalen Adams, Curtis Cobb, Bruce Brown, Tyree Weston, and Tomas Murphy have in common? If you said they are all PC recruiting targets you would be correct. But all these guys and many other New England prep school and high school stars will be playing an all star game next Saturday, March 15th, at East Greenwich High School. Here are the details.
