Title: Duke board reactions...
Post by: White Shaq on April 01, 2014, 10:34:30 AM
Sounds like Wojo will be missed... A few quotes from Devils Illustrated: https://duke.rivals.com/forum.asp?sid=1021&fid=1690&style=2

Would be a really major blow to the staff if Wojo goes.  Not sure we have anyone on the staff who can replace the Xs and Os / game plan role that he and Collins played for much of the past decade.  Capel's never been known as a great Xs and Os guys, and James / Scheyer don't have the coaching background to be thrust into that role.  If Wojo left, I think we'd have to take a serious look at going outside the program to find a more experienced assistant.

Would hate to see him go in his upgraded role on the staff...with the right surrounding staff, wojo would do well at Marquette.

Well I think we all expected this sooner rather than later.  If they decide to hire him they will be getting a good coach and a good guy.

Does this mean Jerry Wainwright stays as an assistant?

I really hope so. It would be nice to have that continuity for the players and Jerry is a great guy and great for MU
