True, but his overriding priority -- a chance for a 3rd title -- remains.
Lakers wanting to hire Dan Hurley

Thanks for the invite hart. I do lurk and see many very good comments made by some very good Duke fans. Basically I don't care for confrentation and there's still some going. I do realize that DI does have The Lounge and if you want confrentation then that's the place to go. I did not care for the recliner coaches who everytime we would lose had the solution for winning that game but seemed to be absent when we win. There is no coach or player bashing but you can express your opinion , frustrastrations and disappointments. The trolls from other programs that pop up consistantly became too much for me although I know it's a free board and the DI mods has their hands full controlling them. There's probably some trolls that somehow got on DBB but it was by deception and they stay quiet and don't post. Pisgah was right in the fact that this board has grown beyond my mindset or passed me by and I can't change with the times. I joined DI back in 2006 and DBB is a lot like DI was then. Once again I do lurk and there's a lot of positive Duke fans here but believe when I say DBB is home and it is perfect for me. OFC. ( I didn't forget the OFC)

Well you are very much welcome Sky. You are very much missed,and one of the reasons I got on this board.
I think our board is as strong as ever,and Timo and Pisgah do a very good job of keeping the trolls away when they show their arse.
THE 5 POINT PLAY PODCAST is a good source of following the hoops program too.Also,the football section of the board remains strong with great stuff from Duke beat writer @ConorONeill(Conor of course contributes in ALL SPORTS),and occassionally offers free stories off his premium site. @surfdevil makes his timely football contributions too. Sky all the best my friend!!
P.S. Sky I couldnt close here without your theme song, you used to post for a laugh at appropriate times. The Billy McCaffery lookalike,Rick Astley:

For those of you who follow Duke sports other than basketball, there is great info shared in the football thread. Between Conor and Surfdevil, I look there first before anywhere else for Duke football news.
And I agree, this board has become much more civil and less like Kentucky's or the Cheater's boards, in recent days.

I would be shocked, shocked, if Ucon didn't sweeten the pot for Hurley to stay. He's got to be the highest paid person in Connecticut.
Don’t think UCONN can pay him $11 Million a season but will get a raise from $5 Million. Left a lot of money on the table. Maybe it’s JJ job now.
There is a rumor that the offer was viewed as low. There is also the rumor of a complete overhaul of the Lakers roster. That’s not the ideal starting spot for a new nba coach.
