    And Gut convinced the world that he did not exist.

    In sort-of related news, Tommy Amaker reportedly was offered the Miami job and turned it down. One could speculate that he's holding out for the Duke job, or perhaps he feels that if he takes the Miami job and fails, that would eliminate him from consideration for the Duke job. But then again maybe he just doesn't want to coach at Miami.

("Loyalty" being very big with fans; paychecks being very big with coaches and their families.)

    I know K wouldn't like it (he has said so many times, and I believe him), but it ain't his decision.

    It seems to me that there are 12 ACC schools, each with its own niche. I have a hard time seeing them going for the same recruits any more so than Duke competing with non-ACC schools, many of whom have ex-Duke coaches and players.

    And as to looking down the court at Cameron or elsewhere and seeing K in a suit, why is this a problem? It is just another challenge.

    I hate to be unsentimental about this, but that's how I feel.sagegrouse

    Agreed. Although we probably both agree that the Miami job might not be a good fit for Tommy. But you are right -- if someone offered Jeff Capel or David Henderson an ACC job, i would not begrudge them for taking it and I would wish them luck in all but 1 to 3 games they had all year (depending on whether they were in our division).

    Unless they went to Carolina, though -- I'd really have to ponder that one and then "lead with the heart"
