Compare what they say about Altman to what is said about McDermott

Shatel: Creighton-Altman split was a divorce made in Arkansas - Omaha.com

A new look won’t hurt Creighton, either. The tenor changed since Altman backed out on Arkansas three years ago. There’s been a different feel, like he had cheated on the marriage. Some fans never forgot that. The fuses were shorter. There’s been a lot of sniping about nonconference scheduling and substitution patterns. People were starting to pull money, to give up some of their season tickets. Folks who once were afraid to say anything negative, lest they chase Altman away, were openly and loudly critical of The Coach.
You hear that today. There’s a lot of folks saying good riddance

wait until they get a taste of McD.


mmmmmm

losing with a healthy dose of transfers.

Altman was never better at CU than when he was recruiting Iowa and Milwaukee. It was when he elevated assistant Brian Fish into his key recruiter’s role — and turned him loose on Southern California — that we noticed a change in the program. Throw in P’Allen Stinnett and you had a group of players who no longer would dive on the floor upon command. Moreover, you had a group who demanded playing time, without the willingness to perform fundamentals. Some left the team or were encouraged to leave.
There’s irony and a lesson here. We saw it last month. Northern Iowa dominated the Valley with the kind of team and style that Altman used to have. Northern Iowa slayed mighty Kansas and made the Sweet 16. Butler used that formula to make the Final Four.
