Yes they did, and nothing against these programs at all, but they were able to keep continuity (as well as recruits) by hiring within.Someone familiar with the program, keeping recruits, running the same schemes, etc.
In McDermott's case. Creighton did have 4-5 players who were going to enter their senior seasons, 1 entering his junior year, and 7 kids entering their soph. seasons the year he was hired, not to mention a stud player coming along in his son..
