With Duke’s season over at the hands of Tennessee Saturday, it’s time to look back at Jon Scheyer’s first season and see how he did and how the Transition has gone.
Here are the Duke coaches since 1928, or the last 95 years, and their first seasons.
- Eddie Cameron: 12-8 10th place (Southern Conference)
- Gerry Gerard: 20-6 (Southern Conference)
- Harold Bradley: 20-13 (Southern Conference)
- Vic Bubas: 17-11 (ACC) Elite Eight
- Bucky Waters: (ACC) 17-9 NIT
- Neil McGeachy: (ACC) 10-16
- Bill Foster: 13-13 (ACC)
- Mike Krzyzewski: 17-13: (ACC) NIT
- Jon Scheyer: 27-8 (ACC) Round of 32
Scheyer is way ahead of anyone in terms of wins (although part of that is that more games are scheduled today) and really only Vic Bubas is comparable since he won the ACC Tournament and made it to the Elite Eight in his first year.
