This leads to a deeper conversation about who might get left out of NU's eight-man rotation as 10 guys seem viable to play minutes. The duo then have a conversation about both teams' frontcourt groups with Jon exploring the fact that Fedor Zugic may or may not be available for Greg McDermott and is a big question mark at the 3-4 position.  The guys wrap up the episode by looking ahead to the upcoming exhibition games and what they're most looking forward to watching before Jon closes with this week's "Pressing Question."

In 2022, Portland residents voted to drastically change the city’s form of government. That includes using ranked-choice voting to expand the city council from five seats to 12.  Another change is the creation of four geographic districts, with voters in each district electing three candidates to represent them on the new council. “Think Out Loud” is hosting a series of events throughout Portland to help voters meet the district candidates. They were invited based on the number of individual donors who contributed to their campaigns. On Oct. 9, we held a District 3 candidates forum at Gigantic Brewing Hawthorne Pub. We partnered with the Urban League of Portland for the event which they live streamed on Facebook.  District 3 covers most of Southeast Portland, west of I-205. It includes the neighborhoods of Mt. Tabor, Sunnyside, Montavilla and Woodstock. It also includes some neighborhoods in Northeast which cross Sandy Boulevard such as Rose City Park and Roseway. The D3 candidates we spoke to include: Rex Burkholder, Jesse Cornett, Daniel DeMelo, Chris Flanary, Theo Hathaway Saner, Harrison Kass, Tiffany Koyama Lane, Angelita Morillo, Steve Novick, Jon Walker and Luke Zak.

In the latest episode of Half-Court Press, Wilson Moore and Jon Walker recap the first few weeks of Creighton and Nebraska's preseason and preview both teams' groups of guards. The guys open with thoughts from Creighton's first practice and the transition between eras that is underway as the Bluejays move on from Trey Alexander and Baylor Scheierman, with Ryan Kalkbrenner as the bridge in between.  The duo break down CU's big question which is how can Greg McDermott make these new pieces work? Jon talks about Jasen Green who's been the bright spot of the preseason for Creighton and how he improved in the offseason. Wilson then breaks down what he learned from Nebraska media days which is the Huskers still have leadership in Rienk Mast but Juwan Gary and Brice Williams have taken those roles as the leaders of the program and were the team's representatives in Illinois. Wilson also takes a look at NU's backcourt group which includes two point guards — a big difference from last year. Jon's preview of the backcourt includes a breakdown of Pop Isaacs who will try and fill Alexander's spot. Another question he ponders is who will fill Francisco Farabello's important role off the bench? The guys roll through a few preseason notes including TV times for several Jay games, who's intriguing to watch at the Red-White scrimmage, who's to blame for Nebraska's new court design at Pinnacle Bank Arena and more.

Jon talks Creighton's hardest stretch this season and how it is happening during the part of the season that the Jays usually start to peak. He also talks how that six game, 17 day stretch could decide a lot of the Big East standings. They talk Creighton having a true homecourt advantage for the majority of the start of the Jays' schedule and how Nebraska's schedule is more balanced this season, with fewer back-to-back games. Wilson talks Fred Hoiberg's recent media availability and what the Husker coach had to say about this year's team. Heading into the Jays' first preseason media availability, Jon talks his questions for Creighton, including where does Jasen Green fit into CU's team and how do they kick the door down and finally reach the Final Four.
