(In 1994, at KSU)There were some rumblings that particular boosters did not like the way the program was headed, and even rumors that some inside the Athletic Department were displeased. In the midst of this situation, Altman made the somewhat surprising move by taking the job at Creighton.

Boo... Hoo.
Cry my hand full.
We love ya, Dana!
Please feel free to stick around and show us Duck fans what you're capable of!
