It looks like it's going to be that way. Ole Roy plays a fun fast paced run and gun style (but with emphasis on defense). This is clearly something a lot of players like to do. With the extra possessions players get more touches, more fast breaks, more dunks, etc, etc.
On the other hand Coach K, fresh off his flirting with the NBA that gave him a lot of street-cred and NCAA-cred, is playing with an under-talented and under-manned team. He is still winning but the emphasis is on frenzied defense and slow down in the 2nd half. Not as much fun as run and gun!
Obviouisly Duke's recruiting class next year will probably change that, but also keep in mind that now Ole Roy is willing to recruit the whole country. (When in Kansas he tried to avoid going head to head with "Carolana" on east coast players)
