"The contract adds two years to a deal that was previously through 2028-29, sources told ESPN. Scheyer last received a contract extension in 2023. Tabbed to succeed the legendary Mike Krzyzewski in 2021, Scheyer has done an impressive job keeping Duke near the top of the sport in his three seasons at the helm. He's won 89 games over those three seasons, leading the Blue Devils to the Elite Eight in 2024 and the Final Four last season."
"Duke has also remained the nation's preeminent recruiting power under Scheyer's watch. They've landed the No. 1 ranked class in three of Scheyer's four recruiting cycles, finishing No. 2 back in 2023. He signed the nation's top-two players in 2022, the No. 1 player in 2024 and the No. 3 player in 2025, landing 10 McDonald's All-Americans in total over his four classes at Duke."
Jon Scheyer signed a new six-year contract through the 2030-31 season, two years longer than his previous deal. Scheyer won 89 games in his first three seasons, led Duke to the Elite Eight in 2024 and the Final Four in 2025, and tied Division I records for wins by a coach in their first three seasons. Duke ranked third in wins over the last three seasons. Duke won both the 2024-25 ACC regular-season and conference tournament championships, winning 35 games before falling to Houston in the national semifinal. Duke sustained top recruiting classes, landed 10 McDonald's All-Americans, and sent nine players to the NBA including No. 1 pick Cooper Flagg.
