They talk a bit about Wright's recruiting to Dayton. How they felt after the game, and what Coach did in the locker room, and he was all serious after at the hotel. Also, Gregory mentioned that he talked to Izzo/Heathcote after the game since they've played Kansas, so his mentor is still helping him out.

Talking with Coach, they ask about if he told Wright things he had to work on when at Dayton, and what was on the list and what has he done ... Coach's response (I'm assuming it was tongue in cheek...) "He couldn't dunk when I recruited him, so obviously he has listened extremely well."

Ha!

	Brian Gregory BRIAN GREGORY UD Men's Basketball Head Coach since 2004. Groomed by the likes of Judd Heathcoate and Tom Izzo at Michigan State, as well as Kevin O'Neill and others, Gregory's defensive-minded leadership has led Dayton to NCAA and multiple NIT appearances. A good recruiter, BG has elevated the athleticism of the squad in recent years and kept top area talent at home. Still looking for that breakthrough season with his own players that catapult him to the NCAA tourney. Graduated from Oakland University.

Here is an article from IHT which covers a lot of the same ground it would seem.
