Not to be disrespectful, but I heard this first hand from several former basketball players, and in one case they had talked to many former team mates. J Mac was the strength and conditioning guy for basketball in the range when we won conference championship after conference championship. And since I have had some approximation to the program due to family, I have met many of these guys, and they all liked him. I don't know if he digressed, or football wasn't his bag, but his results from a basketball standpoint can't be disputed. Top two scorers of all time, 8 of 10 years in Tourney, Sweet sixteen, multiple conf. championships.
