We may need to take a look at our assistants’ salaries. It seems we lose quite a few. If a guy moves to take a HC job, that’s one thing, but these lateral moves are frustrating.

Maybe, but we did give a nice bump to Huss to bring him back when he was flirting with Illinois.

I'm not going to make too much of it because a lot of the guys we were losing were basically "going home," to alma mater's or areas of the country where they have more connections.

Exactly, in this case he played for LSU for 3 years out of HS and was probably looking to take on a bigger role on the staff. Here, he's currently on a staff with a former HC (Kellogg) and former Assistant HC (Miller)

It's part of the business that the coaches want to develop and take on more responsibility to progress their career. It's a credit to the program that we have guys moving up after their time here

Good luck to JCW


FWIW, the OWH also mentioned Jovan Coleman, Creighton's other graduate assistant.

Love Mitch. Hope we replace JCW with a killer recruiter — we can’t let the aspect of the staff slip.
