Huh? What are you talking about? This thread is about duke. Not sure what you are trying to spin it to. I haven’t changed anything
Jon Scheyer…

How do you know these things, big guy?
Rhetorical question, of course. We all know you don’t know shit. 😆
Is that true? Because I feel like it probably is.
IDK, I think duke is hoping Jon follows the same path as K and they could be right. JS appears to be a good student of the game, he's connected and he seems to have the right personality for the job.
It is pretty odd that they gave him the keys to the porsche with his lack of experience, but he obviously got K's blessing, so that should be good enough for now, let's see how he does.

From what I have heard everyone is thrilled with Jon. Program and school.
Get the fvck out of here with this reason and logic. Time will tell if it ends up being the right call. I was pretty impressed with how he took a team that looked like a group of soccer players and turned them into a competitive basketball team. Wasn't a great outcome in the end, but had a good turnaround.
Yeah, I didn't think he would do as well as he did. I think he will be a great coach with through more experience.
Been a fan of Scheyer longer than anyone here. He's from the town next to mine and I followed his run to state championship at Glenbrook North HS (same school as Chris Collins) back in the day.
It's really very simple... K hired him. Not the AD or a search committee...K did. That is his qualification. I'll be curious to see how the next 5 years look.
Imo K had earned the right to hand pick his successor. If he wanted Scheyer that’s who the administration should have gone with and they did. If he fails they can move on. I think Scheyer is a good coach though. Probably won’t have Coach K level success but he’ll be damn good.
Trend this is the direction the industry went. AZ Mich IU Louisville UNC Duke CUSE NOVA TX similar. UK MICH ST and KU who knows when its their turn.
The President is just the puppet. The AD and boosters pull the strings. In K's case, he pulls a lot of strings himself since he built the program into what it is and generates a shit ton of revenue for them.
Ah yes. Allowing a coach to become bigger than the school. What could go wrong? Just ask Penn st.?
A lot of the more seasoned coaches weren't crazy about the NIL madness. If memory serves me correctly, Scheyer was named as K's successor in June of 2021 and the NIL was officially introduced to the NCAA in July of 2021. He had a whole year to begin his preparations as the next Duke coach - and to get an understanding of the inner workings of NIL.
It's much easier for him to adapt to this as he came into NIL the same time he began his head coaching duties. What's one of the first things he does as head coach? Hires Rachel Baker, who had years of experience with Nike and EYBL, to be the General Manager over the players in leveraging NIL opportunities. Dude is WAY ahead of the curve on this.

Also, Cooper Flagg at Duke next year is going to be spectacular.

Yep. I see your point. Strong odds Rachel brokered that Zion deal to duke as well.

Who better to lead Duke's NIL fundraising efforts, right? She knows what she's doing.
Duke is in a good place.
Talent acquiring is just one part. In game coaching is another and Scheyer hasn’t proved much there yet.
ACC Tournament Champs and 19-1 this season with a full cast. Only loss with a full roster was the UVA road game where there was a questionable no-call at the end of the game.
Sure. But, we were missing a starter.
At any rate, I feel good about Scheyer. Good recruiter. Good coach. I said multiple times before K's successor was named the only guys connected to Duke that I'd be interested in were Scheyer and Quin Snyder. If he misses the tournament, the tide might change. But, as of right now, the Duke camp is overwhelmingly pleased with Scheyer.
Duke should have been talking To jay wright. Mark few, or Brad Stevens
I do think this conference realignment thing will be something to watch. Think duke has a spot in sec or big ten?
WTF? Those are all white guys.
I am sure Duke was concerned about the opinion of Auburn football fans when they considered who was going to replace K.
We say that every year with our NBA picks too
Yes, but I don't say that every year.
Doubt it. Football isn't good enough. If the ACC folds, I'd wager that we end up in the Big 12.
I wonder if we get to a point where schools like duke, Stanford, northwestern, Vanderbilt, etc. form something. Or why not the big east if the focus is basketball?
You know what they say about assumptions. Good for you, just keep throwing shit against the wall and watch it fall to the ground.
So, tell us why this is the first time you mentioned Rachel during all your hate filled Duke posts.
Dont forget, you svck Pearls dick every day and he is definitely not a saint.
Jay Wright was retiring. Few was at Gonzaga 5,000 miles away and Stevens is running the Celtics.
BTW, how do you know they didnt and they told them no thanks.
Dude, you are trying so hard and you just keeping making yourself look dumber.
