Will be interesting to see how he does at Ohio State, he never finished over .500 in any of his 4 seasons at Iowa State. His 1st four years at Creighton were good, but that was also with his son on the team.

Without Doug his Creighton teams have made 1 NCAA (losing in the 1st round) in the last 3 years.

ESPN just announced he turned down the job offer.

I don't blame him. After OSU turning out Matta over the last couple of years' records, I would be very leery about jumping into that situation if I were a big time coach with a stable situation.

Agreed, the Creighton job is a good gig with good tradition in hoops but not nearly the expectations that you'd have at Ohio State. Additionally hoops is the #1 sports on campus, at Ohio State it will always be #2 behind football.
