To replace a legend

[RU72]

All of these should happen in the next 5 years and here are my thoughts:

Duke- They make a play for Brad Stevens,but when he says no Scheyer gets it over Capel.

UNC- Hubert Davis.

Geno- Carla Berube.

MSU- Mark Montgomery.

Cuse- Cooley over Hopkins.

You don't want to be the guy that replaces a legend. You want to be the guy who replaces the guy who replaced the legend.

All I know is Duke lost again, good news.

You don't want to be the guy that replaces a legend. You want to be the guy who replaces the guy who replaced the legend.

Best advice ever. Follow someone the fans and alums hate not adore.

Gene Bartow at UCLA post Wooden

52-9 record in two years
1976 Final Four loses to Indiana
1977 a Sweet 16 loss to Idaho St.

Bye Bye

If im Michigan St - I go after Draymond Green.. He was born to be a head coach

Duke has made the NCAA every year but one since 1984.

Duke has a lot of former players coaching that would get consideration. Just off the the top of my head. Amaker, Woj, Collins, Bobby Hurley, Dawkins along with Capel. Not sure how Scheyer gets to the front of that line.

IMHO I think Tommy Amaker would get it if he wanted.

At duke , it’s gonna be whoever coach k wants . Assuming he is leaving on his own terms . Cooley at Syracuse ? He hasn’t exactly lit it up at providence.

I still think Izzo and coach k got gas in the tank

I thought I'd let that pass.

Also if putting a 5 year window on these, then replacing Roy Williams at UNC might also be in play. You have to wonder how many more years Boeheim hangs around. Not sure what class his son is in but they might go out together. Finally Kansas and Arizona might be the next marquee jobs available if the NCAA finally does something. I can see someone like Brad Underwood or Rick Barnes being interested in Kansas.

Our fan base would run the guy out of town too

Only if he has a 5 game losing streak during that second year.

I don't know the Cooley/Syracuse connection other than "good coach entrenched in the same part of the country" but he is a great coach and has done very well at Providence. That was a dying program when he took over and he's brought them to, maybe not Pitino or Gillen levels of success, but early Welsh levels. They should be trying to keep him forever.

As a Duke Fan, I always thought WOJO would be first one to replace Coach K. Dawkins is getting older, as is Amaker. They both are first options you could see K vouching for as his heir apparent
