Gettin' old. End of an era. Rumor is former Duke player and current #1 assistant Jon Scheyer (an Israeli- American), is at the top of the list for Coach K's replacement. It will be interesting to see what kind of pressure is placed on the program to pick a 'person of color' instead particularly with the craziness that is BDS afflicting so many college campuses today including Duke.

Good riddance to bad rubbish. Coach K’s Trump-bashing comments, as well as his promotion of the phony narrative about January 6 won’t be forgotten or forgiven anytime soon... at least not by me.

I’ve been a Kansas fan for 30 years. Many memorable games between Coach K and Roy Williams, then Bill Self.

He should quit now. Avoid the embarrassment of another lousy season. Article says his teams had “5 Tournament victories.”. That isn’t many.

Thanks for the posts. Haven’t watched college bb in years. I never knew K was such a SCUMBAG.

I think Coach K destroyed college basketball with his “one (year) and done” strategy. He just preps them for the NBA.
The NBA should start a farm team system and leave college ball alone.

Piece of crap kept his mouth shut during Duke lacrosse debacle. Didn’t stick up for coach or players.

Much due respect for him as a coach with all his accomplishments and he did know how to work the refs and the system. But as a Carolina fan, I sure did enjoy seeing his face transform into sphincter mode when the calls weren’t going his way. :-)

It will be a whole new era on Tobacco Road with Roy and Coach K gone. Fortunately, the rivalry is much bigger than the coaches.

He was as big a cheater as Dean’s Myth.
