Lol, the emasculation of edina is hilarious.

I too shall add my voice to the "you're an idiot" chorus. K isn't going anywhere.

Jim Boehim at Syracuse is up there as well.

Coach K is a class act and he will decide when it is time for him to leave. I think Coach K will be around for a long time. Case and point the guys buys pizza for the Duke kids sleeping in tents waiting to buy tickets. You don't see that out of a scumbag like Bob Huggins.

Curious, what's wrong with Huggins? A good friend of mine works on the WVU team as some type of assistant coach.

Huggybear likes to booze, we know that

A much more reasonable question is how long until Calhoun decides to leave at UConn? It's going to be a sad day...I wonder if his successor can keep up the amazing track record of recruiting that Jim has logged.

He's like the new Tom Osborne. At NE, the true Huskers fans would always call him, "Dr. Tom Osborne".

I agree...he's not going anywhere unless it's his decision.

That said, any other coach in the country would be ************ if they continually signed Top 10 recruiting classes (including signing 2 to 3 McDonald's All-American every year) and didn't make the Final Four on an annual basis. Maybe Roy Williams is the other exception.

His years are def numbered. He really looks old and this whole debacle right now might age him a couple more quickly if it gets nasty. I think he can pretty much stay as long as he likes though, he is a part of the state that has nothing else really to cheer for. Gonna be hard to fill those shoes, we have super high expectations. That comes with being successful, your standards are ever increased.

As everyone else stated Coach K is there for as long as he wants to. The day he leaves, if he ever does, there would be 20 teams probably lined up courting him and I bet some may even be direct competitors to Duke.

Can I just reiterate how dumb the OP's premise was?
