Take a listen as Jake interviews the Head Women's Basketball coach at Creighton University Jim Flanery. They discuss many topics such as growing up in small town Iowa, how he became the Head Coach at Creighton, how he recruits his student-athletes, NIL & Transfer Portal, his 21 seasons as the Head Coach, what continues to drive him, the success Creighton has had, and much more!
   Creighton’s all-time victory leader (379 and counting). Flanery is the only women’s basketball coach to guide Creighton to five NCAA Tournaments, reaching the Big Dance in 2012, 2013, 2017, 2018 and 2022. The  2021-22 season was historic for the Bluejays as Creighton reached the Elite Eight with victories over Colorado, at No. 8 Iowa and over No. 10 Iowa State. Creighton also reached the NCAA Second Round in 2013, 2017 and 2018 as well as claiming the program’s first BIG EAST regular-season title in 2017.  
   One of the driving forces in Creighton’s success in 2021-22 was the ability to share the basketball. The Bluejays led the nation in assists (668), assists per game (20.2) and assist-to-turnover ratio (1.59). The Bluejays also shot the ball tremendously well, closing the season fifth in three-pointers made (334) and third in three-pointers per game (10.1). Coach Flanery has found much success at Creighton and has kept it going for many years!
