If McDermott isn't a done deal (not sure yet), but according to Gene Smith at 1 am, he wasn't. That he had a long list and he was working through it. So I am assuming he has been during interviews for some time if he is deciding before Friday. Let's see where else his private jet went recently. All flights might not be Smith but we can speculate.
Date | Location | Possible Candidate |
June 7 Wednesday 8pm-11pm | Omaha, Nebraska | Doug McDermott (Creighton) |
June 6 Tuesday 1pm-5pm | Roanoke, Virginia | Buzz Williams (Virginia Tech) |
June 5 Monday 4pm-9pm | Teterboro, New Jersey | ? |
May 31 Wednesday 2pm-9pm | Dallas, Texas | Shaka Smart (Texas) Scott Drew (Baylor) Jamie Dixon (TCU) Tim Jankovich (SMU)

Greg McDermott did not fly back to Columbus with Ohio State athletic director Gene Smith.

Gene Smith told me, "I'm not done" and "I've got a list" but would not comment further or confirm names on the list. Indicated it's long.
