Will Duke Devils (NCAA Men Basketball) Continue to be a good team after their head coach leaves?
Nothing against any Duke Devils Fans out there, but I know he is not going to leave his team. And some day he is going to have to retire from his job.
Do u believe or think Duke will continue to stay in the top 25 after their head coach retires?
Yes--the Duke job will continue to be one of the best jobs in sports. Coach K has really built up the facilities and is now endowing basketball scholarships, so that the program as a whole can eventually sustain itself. It looks like Dawkins will probably take over after Coach K leaves, and he is a fine ambassador of the Duke tradition. Duke is one of the Top 5 winningest programs in college hoops, and while Coach K is sort of the modern day John Wooden, the program was strong before he arrived. Duke is like Kansas, Kentucky, and UNC--they have a long standing tradition of playing college hoops at a high level and will always have alumni that demand basketball excellence. The program is a big money maker and the athletics department is not going to suddenly succumb to mediocrity when Coach K leaves.
