MVC: Creighton up early

By Jerry Palm - March 03, 2007

Nate Funk hit his first three point attempt and Anthony Tolliver has four early points to stake Creighton to a 7-2 lead. The Bluejays are sitting in front of me for this game, so I'll get a good look at Dana Altman, especially since, unlike most teams, they meet on the bench during timeouts.

During the first timeout, he was reminding his team to talk on switches.

He also has an unusual signal for an offensive play. Most coaches hold up a number of fingers or something similar to indicate a play, but he has one where he taps the underside of his chin with the back of his hand.

The Jays lead 9-5 with 14 minutes left.
