Johnny Dawkins has been hired as Stanford's new head basketball coach, replacing Trent Johnson who left for LSU.
I'm happy that Dawkins got a head coaching job, but this really screws up Duke's future. When Coach K retires in the next 5, 10, or 15 years, Dawkins was almost a lock to take his place. Dawkins is a good recruiter and knows the system well, but now we have no sure replacement.
Anyone have any ideas for a replacement? I don't think anybody would leave a head coaching job to be an assistant (Amaker (Harvard), Bender (Assistant at Hawks), Brey (Notre Dame), Dougherty (TCU)) but maybe Quin Snyder or David Henderson might be good replacements.

I dont know who will replace him, but lets pray to God that it's someone with a big man background.  We dont need any more guards on that bench

This has been probably the worst offseason for Duke basketball in recent memory.  Johnny Dawkins is a solid coach and he's going to be sorely missed.  I thought for sure he was going to be the next in line to coach Duke when Coach K decided it was time to hang it up.  This is a big loss for Duke, I really hope they find a decent replacement, Collins and Wojo are not prepared to take on the role that Johnny Dawkins played for this team the past several years.  To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if Quinn Snyder or David Henderson showed up on that bench to be beside Coach K.  Snyder is coaching in the NBDL, which is like coaching in a playground league and I don't even know what David Henderson is doing.  I think Snyder would be a good choice to come back.  Let's hope it's someone who knows what they're doing!

No. I don't think Coach K is going to get a recent (in the last 8 years) player to coach. If any player, it would be Nate James, who just came back to be a strength coach.

Wait, new idea! Jay Bilas as Duke's new assistant coach. What do you think?

This sucks, could Duke have a worse offseason. I personally think Coach K should not be think bout the usa team and be thinking more about his own commitment to Duke and there best being, does anyone agree ? I mean we are coming off a decent season with way more room to improve, and with 2 good recruits comming in and Dawson leaving you got to think its worring some. Maybe im wrong.  

 

Anyways GO DUKE
