That would suck. We would sink into the same abyss as the football team. And Terry Bowden probably can not coach basketball.


While the chances are obviously absurdly low that he would leave...I don't think we would sink into anything close to what Ianello put the football team into.

Also, I'm not sure I'd even worry that much. Sometimes I think we are too content with being just a notch above mediocrity. Seeing a guy like Bowden talk of bigger things makes me dream of having a basketball coach that wants to do the same.

The same guy tweeted again about Dambrot being the frontrunner. Getting annoyed!

Just a thought no one expected Lebron to leave either...just saying

But Dambrot to Duquesne would be like Lebron going from the Cleveland to Charlotte

All this KD to Duquesne talk is starting to make me nervous. At first I just dismissed it as pie in the sky dreaming by one or two random Duke fans, but this thing seems to have a little momentum. No idea why KD would do it, but the rumor just doesn't seem to want to go away. I'll be happy when DU announces a new head coach not named Keith Dambrot.

How bad would it be if we lose an alumni head coach to DUQUESNE?

Now show me something more!

I think KD is the frontrunner, Dunlap is right. Sure, a lot of schools want KD...KD won't leave for Duquesne.

I think Duquesne should, and will end up with Orlando Antigua.

Please provide us with that long list of schools.

If he is on their list, KD should take this as a chance to get himself a pay increase.

Doesn't KD have a contract?

He would owe UA a ton of money if he just got up and left.

A lot of coaches leave schools while under contract. Even Terry Bowden signed a contract extension with UNA in December, then two weeks later came to Akron.

Coaches don't pay the buyouts. The schools that hire them do.

KD isn't going anywhere.

Baseless Internet Speculation actually a job now-a-days. I think Zach is working on his Masters on that very subject.

Here's my blog -

I hope you meant to say "isn't"


It's crazy some of the things these Duq fans are posting in this forum

Calling him dumb, how he will never go anywhere nationally at Akron or the MAC. I'd say John Groce and Caleb Porter have something to say about that. I understand we are not a national powerhouse, or even a conference as strong as the A10. But we are better than Duquesne! They haven't made the National Tournament in almost 40 years. What the hell would they know about doing anything nationally?

I've heard rumors of us playing them again this year. If we do I can guarantee a 20+ point win, and these idiots will be biting their tongues!
