Creighton's Greg McDermott will meet with Ohio State Wednesday night and has emerged as a serious candidate to replace Thad Matta, multiple sources told ESPN.
McDermott, 52, has spent the last seven seasons in Omaha. He has taken the Bluejays to the NCAA tournament four times. He also spent four seasons at Iowa State and five at Northern Iowa.
Creighton finished 25-10 this past season and lost in the first round of the NCAA tournament to Rhode Island.
