There are Creighton sites that acknowledged it but no one is ready to come out and say anything because it's just a rumor. Could be complete nonsense

CTL can’t stay away from the foreign guys.
Is there a site where you can compare guys’ stats?
What’s his position?

Would be good pickup, he can drive and score off the dribble, create his own shot but he's another short Guard together with Boswell

Here's some clips

Nembhard is better than any guard we had this past season. Would be a great pick up, if rumors are true.

If we somehow end up with Boswell, Bamba, and Nembhard as our backcourt, this team will be dangerous!!!!

I doubt that happens..but a man can dream.

In the past, I'd say AZ should absolutely be appealing enough to land these transfers. In the NIL era, I'm not so sure.

FWIW, Mike Luke has been pushing the Nembhard rumors and doesn't think we're getting Bamba. Scheer also mentioned DJ Thomas could reclassify.

This is from a Creighton board:
All rumors but what I’ve heard is that Arizona came with a big number, and R2 is giving CU time to find an equal or near equal package or he’s gone. Would imagine this is Lloyd going through older Nembhard/family as an intermediary.

Also the staff this year said they figured out the NIL thing for R2 before the season, so I would imagine Arizona has as well.

If Nembhard commits, it shows we have the NIL money for top international players and we become a much better team. This has to be positive for Zu.

Guys, guys...heed this message.

Stay tf out of our coaches' way and ffs, let them do what they do.

Their silence bespeaks great progress, and to suggest otherwise is to be a hater. And a dumb one at that.

Anyone concerned about Nembhard's size? He's 6'0. Boswell is also small.

I guess he doesn't speak much English, though. Only moved to Canada a year ago.

We sure need someone with his skill set. Strange that he barely played in the Nike Hoop Summit. Same with Cody Williams.

I think this is a trend that is likely to continue with UCLA and USC leaving the conference and how that may affect our SOS and quad 1 games. Tommy's not afraid to lose a few to find out more about his team. Doesn't view a loss as only a negative thing. Some Lute in there somewhere.
