I see it the other way around. Because Duke has a smaller fanbase, budget, and facilities, they will need to offer substantially more for an equivalent coach.
Not having a huge in-state base of alumni or fans should knock a million per year out of the next Duke coach's salary vs. schools that have both. Much more likely to coach for many seasons.
