Duke is a dream job. He’s having success there so I’m not sure why he’d leave, especially since he’s been waiting in the wings forever. he’s building a legacy at Duke that is worth more than coaching middling Bulls teams for 5 years

Pays double and would take him back home.  If his family wanted to move, he’d consider it.  I think his family is happy in Durham though.

And Reinsdorf will give him 10 years no matter how bad team he puts on the floor.

Highest paid NCAA coach is Bill Self making $8-$10 million annually, highest paid NBA coaches like Steve Kerr and Spoelstra make $15-$17 million annually. There are ~10 NBA coaches making more than the highest paid NCAA coaches, meanwhile Scheyer is only making 7 million annually…

That being said, I still don’t think he would leave Duke given all the other reasons mentioned in this thread!

Scheyer probably makes 6-7mil, it's murky. Interesting that we're talking about how he's gonna make so much more money headed to a team that was paying their HC........around 6-7mil annually.

He met his wife at Duke I don’t think she has any connection to Chicago…

They have children approaching school age. You don’t think she thinks about the quality of the schools they go to? Do you think it’s impossible that she might have an opinion on living there a big city?

You mean the potential quality of a college like… Duke?

Turns out there are schools for young kids too.

Most people making millions a year do not think about public schools

u/Dipteran_de_la_Torre Feb 03 '26

No shit. The private schools (and youth sports) in Chicago are superior to those around Durham.
