Duke's season ends with encouraging signs, big questions ahead of star-studded recruiting class' arrival
Jon Scheyer made it two rounds further in Year 2 than he did in Year 1 after taking over for the legendary Coach K
By Zachary Pereles • 8 min readWhen you don the iconic navy blue, play in front of the Cameron Crazies and follow in the footsteps of some of the sport's all-time greats, the expectations are high. Championship-level high. Every year, no matter the names on the back of the uniform. When the name on the front reads "Duke," moral victories are fleeting ... if they exist at all.
Jon Scheyer knows it as well as anyone. He played in 144 games for the Blue Devils and was twice a team captain. In his senior year (2010), Scheyer played the most minutes in ACC history and captained the Blue Devils to a national title.
Scheyer returned to Durham, North Carolina, in 2013 after a brief pro career. He hasn't left since, gradually moving up the ranks. In June 2021, Mike Krzyzewski didn't just announce he was retiring after the upcoming season, but he appointed Scheyer his successor. The man synonymous with the sport's most recognizable program was leaving impossible shoes to fill but knew exactly who he wanted to try and fill them -- an enormous honor with enormous pressure.
Duke has no reservations about Scheyer's accomplishments. On the second page of the team's 2023-24 media guide is a massive overlay of Scheyer smiling wide next to a headline that reads, "John Scheyer By The Numbers." National championships and ACC championships. Recruiting numbers. All-Americans and NBA Draft.
