It is me, or Coach K hasn't won in a long time?Master_Liveit's his recruiting. and i'm a big duke fan so i can say this confidently. The kind of "player" he likes to recruit is not good enough to be a title contender year in year out. Sure he might make a run now and then, but he likes to coach the players that are going to be around for 3-4 years and not be one and done. Therefore he doesn't get the athletes necessary to win. The game is too fast and athletic today. You can't win a title with players like Laettner and Hurley like you did in the past. He gets very skilled players, but other than Henderson there are NO top notch athletes on that roster, and they get exposed when playing against the more athletic teams. So unless he is willing to go after a couple potential one and done type recruits, it may be a while til he wins another title. With that being said, unless Henderson leaves early, Duke will be a top 3 team next year cause they won't lose any starters, and none of their seniors played more than 6-7 minutes a game this year, and were role players at that. So who knows.

So who knows. Completely agreed. Roy Williams is taking those chances and winning lately up there in UNC.
