**Norm Roberts acting head coach
KU Head Coaches official records against Duke
1-3 Larry Brown won in last game coached against Duke in the 1988 Final Four
1-3 Roy Williams also won in last game coached against Duke, Sweet 16 enroute to the 2003 Final Four and National Championship game
1-0 Norm Roberts (2022 Champions Classic. Acting HC during Bill's suspension, first game with Scheyer as Duke HC)
3-2 Bill Self (4-2 including the vacated 2018 Regional Final. 3-2 v K, 1-0 v Scheyer)
Beginning with the 2003 NCAAT game, and including 2018, KU has won 6 of the last 8 games (officially 5 of the last 7).
Since K retired KU is 2-0.
There has been 1 game each played in Allen (1988) and Cameron (1989).
Duke won both.
13 Neutral site games: KU is 7-6 (officially 6-6)
Self has made this and the head-to-heads against UNC and UK games to enjoy instead of enduring.
For that matter, Self has made every non-conference series better for KU. But by far the biggest example - although KU is just 12-24 all time v UK, since Self arrived in 2003 the record is 9-5 Kansas. If only the 2012 team had not run out of time against the Unibrow. >sigh<
Rock Chalk!
