Jeff Capel
- NCAA Assistant Coach (β00-β02)
- VCU Head Coach (β02-β06)
- Oklahoma Head Coach (β06-β11)

Capel was named head coach at VCU after only two years in the assistant coaching ranks making him the youngest head coach in Division I at the time (27).
In his four years with the Rams, he guided them to 79 wins and their first NCAA tournament appearance in eight years.
In 2006, Capel would leave VCU to replace the vacancy left at Oklahoma by Kelvin Sampson.
During his first three years at Oklahoma, Capel led the Sooners to 69 wins, two NCAA Tournament appearances and one Elite Eight.
The following two years would be Capelβs downfall, however, as back-to-back losing seasons and off-court controversy led to his resignation in 2010.
In May of 2011, he accepted an offer to join the Duke coaching staff as an assistant coachΒ and has since been named associate head coach.

Great coach, but controversy has been present during his tenure. Nebraska fans arenβt crazy about questionable morals, but I think theyβd see past it.

Coach in waiting for Duke, not sure he would leave for anyone, even if it were a school that would pay more for him than their football coach.
