JC and Duke

[Cap pitt]

just like everyone thought the Michigan st football coaching job was narduzzi's since the retirement of Dantonio, how many of you think the Duke job will be Jeff Capels when coach K calls it quits? Coach K is up there in years. Something to think about!!!

I sure hope so because Duke can hire anyone they want so if they hire Capel, that means he took us to a few Sweet 16's so I'd sign up for that.

This has been discussed over and over, but hey this is a message board so what the heck. There is little doubt that the job will go to someone from the Duke family. Capel arguably has the most head coaching experience in the family (maybe Johnny Dawkins has coached more, not sure), but none of the candidates (JC, Dawkins, Wojo, Collins) have had overwhelming success at the P6 level to where one would be the obvious choice over another. As has been mentioned, if Capel is ultimately the guy, it means Pitt will be in a good place when it happens.

From one end of the spectrum to the other.
This board is nauseating.

Not a chance.

I've seen it mentioned a few times today by various posters, but where has anyone said it's time to get rid of Capel or to even consider the idea? If it's been posted, can someone kindly link? I need a laugh...

If it came from SMF, then that's probably why I "glossed over" it

It absolutely did not. I know college basketball, remember. Capel gets a MINIMUM of 5 years to make the NCAA Tournament unless he Stallings's.

If he does it means he has success here and Pitt is in a good place. Then maybe they can stick with the same formula and bring in someone like jon scheyer. But yeah everyone presumed Narduzzi was destined for Michigan State eventually, things change

Or hire an alum (Knight, Miller, Willard)

Doubt if Capel is high on their wish list.

Don't forget Mike Brey of Notre Dame was there to he actually coached JC

I think he would be high on the list, and I think he would be extremely interested.

wow I'm surprised you haven't mentioned Brad Stevens yet.

 

[Cap pitt]

Maybe capel was sent here by Duke like Paul Chryst was sent here by Alvarez for HC training

 

[Straight Eye Larry]

if he does leave, the program will be in a 100000x better spot than it was before he got here.

Capel would take the Duke job no questions ask. Its freaking Duke. And that would be ok. As I said, he would have to do big things here to be considered.

 

[recruitsreadtheseboards]

This will be interesting. Wonder when K will hang it up?

K is 73. Boeheim is 75. Roy will be 70 this year.

Mike Brey will be 61 next month. That is likely too old.
Of the family.
Capel is 45
Chris Collins is 45
Wojo is 43
Bobby Hurley is 48
Tommy Amaker is 54
Johnny Dawkins is 56

If K coaches 2-3 more years..... These guys are close in age except for Amaker and Dawkins. But let's face it, 60 is not what 60 was. Look at the Presidential race.....you got upper 70 year olds. Maybe K coaches 5 more years.

I’ve said it sarcastically to piss Souf off. That’s all

I think the majority of the board are in the latter category. It’s just that the same 3-4 haters keep posting the same sentiment over and over that makes it seems like there’s a lot of them

Yep forgot about Brey. Good point.
