Jai to Miami

I hope this isn't true, not familiar with the source that SI is citing. SI has been pretty garbage the past few years. If it is true, it better not be happening now a month before the tournament. As good of an opportunity as it would be for Jai, abandoning the team so late in the season would really sour me on him. Would destroy my hope for a postseason run if the brain behind our defense leaves.

REPORT: Miami Basketball Set to Hire Jai Lucas as Next Head Coach

This season for the Miami Hurricanes men's basketball team has been a tragedy, but now they have their next head coach in Jai Lucas. First reported by Peter Ari

“He started his career at Texas, then bounced to Kentucky before ending up with the Blue Devils for the final year of Mike Krzyzewski and the subsequent years.”

K didn’t have a non Duke player as an assistant coach for almost three decades.
 
Coach Lucas brought a lot to the Devils. He has been all in — and I assume he will continue to be all in.

He deserves a shot at the top job and I’m guessing he thinks Miami is a great opportunity. He has no need to leave his current role for just anything out there.

The ACC is better when Miami is top flight. I don’t know that I really want to face Lucas two/three times a year, but it would be good to see someone young and great succeed Larrañaga.

Congrats Coach Lucas! No go rack up some championships at Duke.

I believe the portal opens on March 24, before the sweet 16 is played. I would guess that teams with openings will try to get their new coach in place enough ahead of that so they can start recruiting players as soon as they come available.

So... between unc and ACCT? or between ACCT and NCAAT? Would be nice for Jai to see Duke through the ACCT.
