Yep, he's closer to retirement and hanging it up for good.

Probably not, hence the new thread.

This guy says something is gonna happen involving the college basketball world that will shock everyone, the only thing I would find shocking is Coach K coming to coach the Lakers..


Coach K is actually intelligent and won’t cast his career on Lebron’s shoulders.

No way. One of the worst human beings in all of sports.

What exactly is Coach K good at? It's 2019. He is not surviving an 82 game schedule + playoffs. The only thing he's been good at recently is recruiting. We have enough recruiters.

Also, if we get a big name college coach, I bet it's Izzo (since all we know as an organization is nepotism and psuedo-nepotism).

Coach K is one of the few coaches Lebron would listen to and respect, but I see zero reason for him to leave Duke to coach in the NBA.

Maybe he's interested in developing a heart condition?

Coach K is an overrated coach. Great recruiter. Schematically average. Great college coach. Please do not cite the time he led a collection of some of the greatest basketball players in history to a Gold Medal.

And he’s the freakin’ king of his current domain. And wealthy, and unimpeachable, and basically, a hero. Why give all that up at his age?

I mean, he could have a longing to try one more thing before it’s too late, or maybe he’s sick of the one-and-done culture of college and doesn’t want to wait for it to change. I don’t know.

If we have LBJ and KD with our young core players, then he might be intrigued otherwise he is not stepping into this mess.

I agree. Sure, he could be a great NBA coach. But most of the college coaches that have gone pro haven't stuck in the league.


Billy Donovan
Brad Stevens

Those guys came straight from college and are leading there team while they are contenders.


Donovan is a rather average NBA coach though, he's even taken some of the blame for KD leaving because he was a bad coach.

Anyway, not only Coach K is 72, coaches are superstars in the NCAA, while in the NBA they're always in the hot seat. Just like the NBA is a players league, the NCAA is a coaches league. For a guy who's a superstar there, it makes zero sense to make the jump unless they are people with different motivations in life, like Brad Stevens.

Not only that, but somehow the only logical conclusion is that Coach K is coming to the Lakers. lmao

As much disdain as I have for Luke, I'd rather have him than Ty "stepped over by Iverson" Lue.
