If this is not a joke, it's the dumbest AD move since Notre Dame hired Gerry Faust, and should work out just about as well.

Why? Cuse needs a massive shake-up. Gait would recruit like crazy.

Yep! These high schoolers grew up watching Gary! He would clean up…..I am surprised UNC and Duke didn’t hire Michael Jordan and Johnny Dawkins or Gene Banks to coach their teams….

wdgsr - You tossed the gasoline. Typical HS stuff.

Kids like both of them a lot. Though it’s clear neither have the bona fides of a Peter Milliman

Never can.know for certain show things can all out until they do

How much D1 college coaching experience do Phil Ford and MJ have? How much coaching experience at UNC do they have?

If Michael Jordan had been coaching the unc wbb team for 15 years at a highly successful level, of course he would have been a great candidate to replace Roy.

I don’t know if I’ll get the job. But I am massively well qualified to coach mlax at any D1 school. And even more qualified at the school where I’ve already been head coaching for 15 years.

FYI, Hubert Davis has never been a head coach before. And I think he will do fine.

You are right. My point is that Gary is more popular with parents of our generation versus today’s high school kids. BTW, I was stunned that Bobby Hurley and Johnny Dawkins were not considered for the Duke job (maybe they were approached quietly). Bobby Hurley has done a great job at every stop.

How did Mike Davis do? Hubert may be fine. He has been an assistant for a while….Landscape has changed. Juwan Howard has been excellent….Kevin Ollie not so great (despite the NCAA title). Kevin squandered an opportunity.

Hurley could very likely wind up at Duke down the road. Being the successor to a legend coach is often cannon fodder.

Being the successor to the successor is a better gig.

I had thought Wojo was the Duke heir apparent. But getting fired at Marquette messed that up.

I agree. It’s better to follow the guy, that followed the guy. Gary Gait would make a fine men’s lacrosse coach. I have no doubt about that. I was just poking fun as he is more popular with the 50+ crowd than the 16 year old crowd… it’s like guys our age thinking Sharon Stone is still hot, for a real fact check you have to ask a 20 something year old guy.

Wasn’t Chris Collins a Duke guy too?

*AHEM*

Sharon Stone IS still hot, as proven by her cameo on The New Pope.
