No, the 1 and done rule has hurt him at a academic school like Duke. Most talented guys can't get into Duke, and when they leave after 1 year, it leaves a sting. Kyrie Irving and Jabari Parker come to mind.

I have no doubt that recruiting is fine. But Coach K relies on guys executing his system. Has he put in the time in recent years?

Yet somehow they've managed for the last 35 years.

Those are like the only one and dones he has had lately as far as I know. The only other that I can remember was Deng.

Trust me, if a dude's good enough, they'll find a way to get him into school. These athletes aren't quite held to the same standard as other students.

This is true. Coach K and Duke win championships with veteran leaders, like Jewish Jordan, Battier, and Laettner.
