Duke Tax is a good term. Let me add to the article though. What he gets penalized for- having the best players- in an era where many coaches aren’t even recruiting HS talent bc of the portal. And yet it’s still held against Jon. That’s ironic.

Mike Krzyzewski retired after the 2021-2022 season. His last ACC COY award was in 2000. LOL. As I said in another thread, that award is now the "we thought your team would suck" award and that's their criteria for awarding it.
Aka the “oops, our preseason predictions were wrong so let us course correct.”

It is "ironic,"and is a forgotten factor by the media. This is one of the youngest teams, and a masterpiece of roster construction by Jon(sprinkling in only three veteran transfers, only one starts). No one expected ANY TEAM to STORM thru the ACC regular season like Duke has done.
