Iowa State gives McDermott vote of confidence

AMES, Iowa — Despite a disappointing season, Iowa State basketball coach Greg McDermott is receiving a vote of confidence from athletic director Jamie Pollard.

Pollard and McDermott held a news conference Monday where they discussed the Cyclones’ frustrating season and the program’s future. The athletic director says McDermott is part of that future. McDermott has five years left on his contract.

Iowa State finished the regular season 15-16 with four Big 12 wins. One of those came Saturday with a surprising road win at then-No. 5 Kansas State.

The Cyclones open the Big 12 tournament Wednesday against Texas.
