Creighton University's men's basketball program is entering a pivotal summer, gearing up for Coach Alan Huss' first full season at the helm. The Bluejays are using the off‑season to lay a foundation of effort and enthusiasm that Huss believes will carry through the year.
A roster built on continuity
Returning players such as Jackson McAndrew, Jasen Green, Hudson Greer, Austin Swartz and Isaac Traudt give the team a core that has already experienced the rigors of college basketball. Their familiarity with the program’s expectations provides a steady hand as new faces arrive.
A culture of commitment
Huss has repeatedly stressed that the team must be one that wants to be at Creighton, emphasizing continuity and improvement over mere talent. The message has resonated with the returning group, who see their role as anchors for the next wave of talent.
Among the newcomers, transfers Oswin Erhunmwunse, Wes Enis, B.J. Davis and Kayden Edwards join high‑school recruits Katrelle Harmon and Trevon Carter‑Givens, while former Bluejay Baylor Scheierman works out with the squad, bringing professional‑level perspective.
Skill work dominates the current workouts, with the squad focusing on fundamentals before moving to full‑team drills. The 13‑player roster currently holds two open scholarships, giving Huss flexibility as he fine‑tunes the lineup.
The ultimate aim is clear: a tournament berth and a deep run in the 2025‑26 season, a goal that will serve as motivation throughout the summer. If the early energy is any indication, the Bluejays are poised to turn that vision into reality.
