We’ve talked a lot about Duke’s coaching transition with the Blue Devils moving from the Mike Krzyzewski era to the still-new Age of Scheyer.
There are some schools that have been through similar transitions like UNC, UCLA, Kentucky and Indiana.
We never really talked about Arizona in this sense though and it’s an interesting case.
When Lute Olson got to Arizona, there was no tradition. The joke on campus was that the basketball gym was the quietest place you could study.
He changed that and stayed at the U of A for 25 years.
