AG had a so so stint at Arkansas. His time at VCU isn't exactly questionable. And while you point out continuity, many can point out the number of coaches who were highly successful at places like VCU, not so successful in the P5, and then highly successful at similar places to a VCU.

And Ostrum is more a Billy Donovan/John Pelphrey disciple than Miller. He may have totally instituted Florida/Arkansas style of play. Maybe he said that in his interview and Neil said well if we are totally changing things up let's hire from outside.
Agree to disagree...I see little significant difference...the biggest difference IMO is Mack's willingness to play more zone, both 1-3-1 and 2-3.

I highly doubt that Ostrum or Kuwik or Griffin would have proposed totally changing things up after UD just had its best run in multiple decades.

Creighton had plateaued under Altman, they probably wanted to change things up by hiring McDermott.

A point in McDermott's favor, is that McDermott being successful at Northern Iowa was tougher IMO than AG being successful at VCU. McDermott was the one that resurrected UNI. AG continued what Capel started at VCU. AG did do well at VCU though.

Thee are few examples like McDermott. Who else can you cite?
