Doyel all but flat out says that Dawkins either turned down the job, or removed himself from the running, although it sounds a bit like conjecture: "Dawkins also will wait. The offseason's most patient gambler, he apparently will bet everything he has on replacing Mike Krzyzewski at Duke. Dawkins, a former Duke All-American and current associate head coach, probably could have had the Georgetown job. He's from Washington, and he's the top assistant in the country's top program. Frankly, he was perfect for Georgetown. But the Duke job, the Duke job, the Duke job! Dawkins probably is first in line when Coach K retires, and now that he has shunned Georgetown, his name might never surface again for a head coaching vacancy other than Duke's. Will he one day ascend to the Coach K throne? That's his gamble. Time will tell." www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/story/7277602
