I suggest you keep a trash can nearby.If they present him with any sort of gift in his last game at the Dome like they did when he won his 1,000th game Im gonna throw up
Ditto for me, although it's been probably 25 years since I've watched a non-UNC/Dook game.Not for me. I haven't watched a damn dookie game (other than vs. the Heels) for about 10 years and I sure as hell won't start back now.
His recruits only stay one year anyway, so how does announcing a year in advance help?
I don't know if that had as much to do with it as many of the same reasons Roy hung it up. Neither have had the success they had been accustomed to the last couple of years. And with the way the college landscape is changing I don't think either wanted to deal with the constant transfer issues, or the NIL.I'm not surprised he waited this long and I'm not surprised he's retiring now. I always thought he would always wait until after Roy retired to make sure Roy never passed him for anything significant.
They have zero offers!dook has ZERO 2022 commits.
To be honest, I don't have ESPN and haven't watched a Duke game in many, many years. But when I watch ANY. OTHER. GAME. I get loads of Duke crap, and this year is going to be way worse. I envision watching something random, like a Washington vs. UCLA game, and hearing more about Duke than either of the teams playing. At the very least, I guarantee every game I watch will have K or Duke mentioned at least once in both the first and second half, as well as a segment on them at halftime.I have a suggestion for you:
Only watch 2 or maybe 3 Duke games.
And don’t watch ESPN. It’s the same fandom playbook as every other year.
I imagine the ESPN CBB staff having a red light blaring in the offices and someone yelling, "This is what we've been preparing for people, this is not a drill! GO! GO! GO!," and all their 'talent' opening sealed envelopes with personal retrospectives, puff pieces, and old photos of K to run on the air.
ghey
Total horseshit. As already mentioned, his players are one and dones anyway so why does it matter to them?
That is going to be a real problem for the plastic faced one, the current crop of 1&d guys leave with K, it will be up to Sheyer to replace them and that is not going to be the same as when K was there. How involved will K be in recruiting moving forward, their future coach will more likely be much more involved than K will be and that I think may weaken their ability to reload with the levels of talent they have been able to for the last several years.Total horseshit.

The rat's ego has to be fed. Just as expected, he can't go out gracefully like Dean, Roy, and Gut.
I'm guessin' $cheyer will continue to recruit as well as they have been for the past few years ... the Iron Dook$ aren't going anywhere.That is going to be a real problem for the plastic faced one, the current crop of 1&d guys leave with K, it will be up to Sheyer to replace them and that is not going to be the same as when K was there.

A lot of folks seem to believe that Sheyer was named just to give Brad Stevens some time to see if maybe he would consider coming to duke when they are ready to boot the plastic face out of town. I don't see that actually happening, why in the world would Stevens go back to the college game knowing that NLI, the transfer portal, and the early enters to the G or the new league that also pays, are transforming the college game in to what no one knows? College basketball is not the same as it was when he was coaching in college nor does it look like it will ever be. It was hard enough to be a college coach as opposed to what he has enjoyed as the Celtics coach and now replacing Danny Ainge, he would be crazy to leave the NBA at this point.
Arlee Ermy would need to be the Program director in that scenario!
I wonder if the timing of this announcement might have been sped up because Roy just turned the reins over to an assistant without head coaching experience.A lot of folks seem to believe that Sheyer was named just to give Brad Stevens some time to see if maybe he would consider coming to duke
Pretty good job of hiding on Scheyer's part if it took them 10 days to find him.Duke athletic director Kevin White says the school had a search committee -- and hired a search firm -- to help find a replacement for Mike Krzyzewski. The search took 10 days.
They have more money than brains.
I have more change in my pocket than there are brains in that collective.They have more money than brains.
I would suggest that K needing his farewell tour could be more a dis-service to that duke program. Reason being, future recruits now looking to consider duke, what will they hear from the duke head coach, sorry but I will never be your coach? IN the way Roy stepped down, gave Hubert decent time to work on next season recruits but also gives future recruits the chance to not only hear Hubert's pitch now but to see his team play before they make their decisions, while duke's future coach will still have to defer to K next season.His recruits only stay one year anyway, so how does announcing a year in advance help?
Yikes! redlining on the cringe-ometer.
