"They had an NFL champ hired as the coach and Duke beat Carolina in football this year. That doesn't mean Coach Belichick isn't a great coach. There's time for adjustments. It takes longer if you ever get adjusted coming from the pros to college."
"Mike is a terrific coach and a terrific guy. There's a learning curve. If that is true, whatever the reasoning is, maybe they're changing - they have two pro coaches coaching in college - the infrastructure of their athletic department."
Michael Malone has been hired as the men's basketball coach for the University of North Carolina, replacing Hubert Davis. Malone previously coached the Denver Nuggets, leading them to an NBA championship. Former Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski commented on the hire, noting the challenges of transitioning from professional to college coaching. He emphasized that professional success does not guarantee success at the college level, referencing the struggles of UNC's football program under Bill Belichick. Malone's previous experience includes seven years as an assistant coach in college basketball.
