April 1, 201412 yr How much longer will K stay at Duke? Will he go for the Men's coaching record of 1169 held by Gene Bess or the Div 1 record of 1098 currently held by Pay Summit?
April 1, 201412 yr If I were a Duke fan, not a single name on that list would excite me. Amaker was awful at a big-time program, Dawkins has really struggled (until this year's tournament) at Stanford, and the other 3 are completely untested. Amaker is doing fine at Harvard. I believe he has won the Ivy League 3 years in a row and he defeated Cincy in the first round this year. Progress. They don't have schalrships in the Ivy League either, do they? Dawkins seems to be finding his way. The other 3 are untested yes, I'm not saying they should get the Duke job next year. All of those names excite me. I want it kept in the family first.
April 1, 201412 yr How much longer will K stay at Duke? Will he go for the Men's coaching record of 1169 held by Gene Bess or the Div 1 record of 1098 currently held by Pay Summit? I'd guess that as long as his health allows him he'll continue to coach.
April 1, 201412 yr I'll throw this out there to PP92, RockPride and Grizzly. Do any of the former Duke players excite you as being Coach K's replacement?
April 1, 201412 yr I can't believe no one has mentioned Jay Bilas. He has all the answers! I know you're being sarcastic, but I believe Bilas is the best color man in the game . He is very knowledgable, and very unbiased.
April 1, 201412 yr I'll throw this out there to PP92, RockPride and Grizzly. Do any of the former Duke players excite you as being Coach K's replacement? Right now as far as all the former players, I feel none of them is head and shoulders above the rest of em. If he retired today, I would want them to look elsewhere . I don't feel any Dukies are ready just yet. There could be a time in the next 5 years when I think someone will be ready but as far as right now, I'm not so sure. I think Coach K will retire when he sees someone is ready IMO. Until then he will stay at the helm.

April 2, 201412 yr If I were forced to pick a former player....it's Johnny Dawkins by far. Reasons follow: 1 - African American 2 - Retired Jersey 3 - Successful at a school with high academic standards
April 2, 201412 yr Billy Donavon will be the Duke Coach when K retires I could handle that. Of all the elite coaches he is the only one I could see leaving for Duke and one of the few that I could see Duke going after.
