While students head to the beach, for the coaches it’s no rest for the wicked.

This is quiet time for college basketball. But not really; while the sport is in dry-dock, the programs themselves are constantly busy.

Coaches spent April on recruiting junkets, and those junkets are even more important now that the college ranks are being flooded with “one-and-done” players bound for the NBA after their mandated freshman campaigns.

Other coaches are still getting acquainted with their new employers. Tom Crean has a ton of work to do cleaning up the mess Kelvin Sampson left behind in Indiana. Buzz Williams replaces Crean at Marquette after serving one year as his assistant; he’ll also be a very busy man this summer.

Change doesn’t end with the coaches and players, either. Duke needs a new athletic director after Joe Alleva left for LSU. Dr. Chris Kennedy is handling things on an interim basis. This is a very important development that requires attention, as the ACC as a whole diverts its attention toward developing some quality college football programs.
