Creighton, Kansas City each kicking off new eras in season-opening clash
A new era will begin on Monday when Alan Huss guides Creighton into its season opener against Kansas City in Omaha, Neb. Huss was appointed as the new head coach at his alma mater after Greg McDermott announced his retirement after 16 seasons at the post. Like the Bluejays, the Roos will also feature a new coach in Topeka native Mark Turgeon. He joined Kansas City after a decade-long stint at Maryland (2011-2021) and replaced Marvin Menzies after the latter spent four seasons at the helm. Huss, 47, spent six years as the Bluejays' assistant coach from 2017-23 before returning to the university in April 2025 as an associate head coach. Creighton will look to turn the corner after last season's 16-18 record put a stop to five consecutive NCAA Tournament appearances and 10 consecutive seasons of 20-plus wins. The Bluejays are picked to finish seventh in the Big East in the preseason poll, with forwards Oswin Erhunmwunse and Jackson McAndrew named Preseason third-team all-conference selections for the second straight season. "You sign up for these opportunities," Huss told Omaha WOWT. "You talk about the schedule, and the schedule is really opportunities. You can look at it as pressure or
