Dukes had fun players then, Whithead, Alston, Pipkins, Watkins, Hunter, etc. The NIT bid was fun, actually won a game vs UNC Charlotte, hosted 2 NIT games that year(1993-94).
I remember Efrom Whitehead hitting 5 second half 3 pointers in a comeback win over a ranked Fla St team. I have to admit I left that game at halftime as I was young and had exciting things to do I'm sure. Obviously, leaving that game still stings today

The students could care less and in 10 years all the alumni who cared will be dead.
Yes, I once observed that the people who remember DU being really really great were in diapers then, and ironically soon will be again.

Re: Legacy of the Last 4 Duquesne Men's Coaches ??
30 years ago I was a freshman at DU, we got a NIT bid,during my years there, and not much more since. Its amazing. Who has the longest stretch without a NCAA bid? We gotta be top 5.
Ironically the city I moved too with a great academic school and lousy athletics, RICE, has a longer drought than us. Also a few of the "who cares" bottom dwelling Ivies and one of the "Mid Central Lower Tennesee" type schools. That's about it.
