I am posting this in the ISU MBB forum, because I want this to be about Greg McDermott at ISU, not Creighton.
Just from what he has done at Creighton so far this year, Greg McDermott has proven that he is, in fact, a damn good coach. So what really happened to him at ISU?
My own take, and I could be wrong, is that, in an attempt to recruit at a higher level than he did at UNI, he recruited a few "thug" players who permanently poisoned his image among the other players at ISU. I am thinking primarily of Wes Johnson, but a few others as well.
At Creighton, he is able to make a fresh start, minus the highly-athletic thugs he thought he had to recruit at ISU.
