If Doug is as great as we all think he is, one would think that these teams would have risen above the Jays teams from years past. Instead its a steady stream of nice regular seasons and quiet postseasons.
This leads me to question if Doug is over hyped or if dad is in for a rude awakening come next year.
Long time lurker, but had to respond to this. Creighton has won 57 games the past two seasons in the MVC and the best seed they could get was an 8/9. You know what that means and indeed that is how it played out: a win in the 1st round and a matchup with a 1 seed in the next round. We drew UNC/Duke in each of the last two years after wins against Alabama and Cincinnati.
It's hard to have any success in the tournament when you're winning nearly 30 games and conference championships and yet you can't do any better than an 8/9. This has always been the case for Creighton in the tournament as a member of the MVC.
Yeah, and this year they're looking currently at a 6 or 7 seed in bracketology. Not that much better.

I'm not certain, but if memory serves Coach McDermott signed a 10-year contract when he arrived in 2010. So he will probably be here in 2020.

20+ Wins 14 of the last 15 years (1 of 9 schools)
6 straight years with a postseason win (1 of 5 schools)
We can ignore the conference wins stat to save the argument about MVC vs Big East.
Jays may be down a bit next year but they will not be falling into the abyss long term.

Since when do contracts matter in college athletics?
