For the last 32 years, Creighton had only two head coaches combined — Dana Altman and Greg McDermott. A terrific era of Bluejays basketball has ensued.
Now, it’s Alan Huss’ time. He’s back at his alma mater and ready to keep raising the bar in Omaha. Our summer conversation:
So now that the roster is (almost) set, we are looking at a lineup like:
Davis/Harmon
Enis/Swartz
Greer/Green
JMA/Traudt
Oswin/Rosa
This lineup will likely be better on defense, with Davis and Oswin being added, offense will be good like it usually is. Gotta stay healthy🙏
After recent changes at Creighton, I will be reopening my recruitment. I’m grateful for Coach McDermott and the entire Creighton staff. I’ll continue to evaluate my options moving forward, with Creighton still very much in consideration.
Sources: Creighton coach Greg McDermott is retiring after this season, with the job being passed on to coach-in-waiting Alan Huss, per me and @jeffborzello. McDermott has won 365 games in 16 years at Creighton.
Make Jasen Green the highest paid player on the roster next year, then show anyone who has an issue with it the film of all the extra-effort, non-scoring winning plays he makes.
Our goalie decided we weren’t gonna lose today.. One of the greatest American sport performances of all time
