Not a real surprise...

If it ain't broke, don't fix it (just ask Pitino, or Calipari).

he's got a lifetime contract at Duke. Why would he want to leave that?

That sucks. I wonder if he decided to turn it down because it's easier to pick up 5 year olds in Durham than in L.A.? :P

What?

What?

I think The Warden is referring to a Duke official being caught by the FBI trying to sell his adopted son for sex.

Seems like a bad fit. personality not basketball.

Only because MJ's Neverland is located in Santa Barbara, not LA.

Who cares? The NBA is a joke and Duke is on the decline. North Carolina has ruled that rivalry recently and have won the recruiting wars. I think Coach K'S glory days in Cameron are over. I don't think he'll make an elite 8 or final four again.

I second XX's thoughts. Your out there dude.

too bad this is the first year that they havent split in the last like...5 years. And Duke is not on the decline. If you want to call having the longest NCAA tournament appearance a decline? Seriously, well all know that anything can happen in March Madness. And so it has for Duke. Duke has still produced more nba quality athletes. All UNC can hide behind is fricken Jordan. Ok you win. You got Jordan....who else? Exactly. So the next time you start ripping Duke for not winning a title since 2001, read the facts...and dont try to bs a bser!

I am not an expert on north carolina hoops, nor a fan of their school. But I think having James Worthy, Sam Perkins, Vince Carter, and Jerry Stackhouse among your alums in the pro's (I am pretty sure I am missing some more names) that's not to shabby.

Jesus man! I am not even a Duke fan but even I know that you are totally a Carolina homer!!! I think you are wrong on this one and I am sure if you took a national pole 99.9% of everyone would agree with me. Silly rabbit trix are for kids!

WE HAVE A WINNER! THIS IS THE ABSOLUTE FUNNIEST COMMENT EVER, PERIOD!

Great college coach - period !!!!
