Dukies in the NBA 2020-21

Q might make a good coach or on air personality or analyst too.

Well... I have interviewed him and he was not the most evocative guy in his answers. But I agree that he probably has some strong coaching instincts and I could see him in a suit and tie on a bench when his playing days are done.

And his playing days aren't done yet!

Not to mention when Coach K retires.

Also not to mention what happens with the new NIL rules. It could lead to a major shake up of college hoops, if, for example, players who go to a certain school in the Pacific NW all get Nike deals, or if T. Boone wants to boost Ok State to a final four, or wherever else may want to buy into basketball relevance quickly. And it's possible the old time coaches like K, Roy, Boeheim, Izzo, etc don't want to deal with players juggling endorsement deals ("sorry coach, can't make practice tomorrow as I've got a meet and greet I need to do at the local car dealership") so they could all step out at that time. Maybe the bluebloods enhance their existing advantage as they already have national brands and eyeballs, or maybe there is some realignment. It's going to be a whole new world.
