Duke head coach Jon Scheyer had a tough job taking over for Mike Krzyzewski, better known as Coach K, in 2022. Coach K had led the Blue Devils since 1980 and was one of the most respected coaches in college basketball history. While it was a hard act to follow, Scheyer has done a good job, especially on the recruiting front.
On Saturday, Green Light Media posted on Instagram highlighting Scheyer’s transfer portal classes since taking over for Coach K. The post pointed out that Scheyer has had the No. 1-ranked recruiting class in three of four years. The one time he did not have the top recruiting class, in 2023, it was the No. 2-ranked class behind Kentucky.
Shortly after this post went live, college hoops fans reacted in the comments.
“Replacing Coach K is no easy task, but Jon Scheyer has done an incredible job,” one fan wrote.
“I feel like the championship coming soon i think this team we will be bake create our own shots more and play great defense,” one fan commented.
“We need a natty. Still not over that we didn’t win this year,” one fan added.
Fans continued to react in the comments.
