    Pretty sure this is fake and satire about Duke's ability to get players to play here.

    If all the rumors are true, Darren and Nik are the start but if Duke only loses Foster and Sebastian, it wouldn't be as bad as it could be. Although, if Duke loses those four plus Evans, Pat and Sarr going pro, that would be much worse.

    Hot Seats

    I think this is a fantastic post, so thanks for replying. There are a few names that fall short of the 70%, Golden hasn't done that at FL (although he's been great the last 3 seasons), Mike White is well below that at 57% and Brownell is below 70%. There are only a few power 5 Head Coaches...

    Hot Seats

    It's so interesting because if Hubert beats Clemson in the ACC tournament and beats VCU in the NCAA, he still has a job. Just strange that a few games dictate his entire future. I hope he gets a lifetime contract there because he's just an average coach, but he has won 70% of his games. How...

    I think that if Wilson doesn't get hurt, they beat VCU, which would certainly give Hubert one more year. I'm not a Hubert apologist because I don't think he's a great coach, but I don't think he should be fired.

    I completely agree, but those coaches at VT or BC don't even win 70% of their games. I think Forbes at Wake has been better than average and he's not at 70%. Hubert stinks but 70% isn't that bad. You will not find many, if any, coaches that get fired with that winning percentage.

    I agree with everything that's been said about Hubert, but I can't help to think that while he's not done the best job the past five years, he has won 70% of his games as Head Coach. How many coaches have won 70% the past five years? I don't think they should fire or make him resign. I think...

    Official Gameday thread- Duke vs UNC

    Last season was a luxury because you had Proctor, James, Flagg or Kon that could bring the ball up and that's not even counting Foster. This team has Foster Cayden Boozer, Cam Boozer and that's about it. Perhaps in the Emergency situation you could have Nik, but I wouldn't want that.

    While I agree he's not been great, but he does have 3 seasons with over 21 wins and a season with 19 wins. I can't imagine that Winston Salem is a hotbed for NIL.

    Are you saying that both Carolina and UNC are sweet 16/elite 8 teams? Just kidding with you :p

    Can Sarr guard Miller?

    Duke target, 5-star PG Deron Rippey Jr. sets commitment date

    I would assume, and it's just my opinion, that Foster will graduate and do the Jeremy Roach thing, transfer and play somewhere else.

    Hot Seats

    I'm pretty sure there will be plenty of "hot seat" coaches. Coming into this season, perhaps Hubert Davis was looking at it as well, but I think he'll be fine and by that I mean, he'll keep the seat lukewarm. I wonder if a few others in the ACC will be or are on the hot seat like the Syracuse...
