Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss Chris Pollard leaving Duke for Virginia.
Chris Pollard, the all-time winningest baseball coach in Duke University history, has left the Blue Devils to become the head coach at the University of Virginia. This move comes after a 13-year tenure at Duke, during which he significantly elevated the program's performance and national profile.
Chris Pollard's departure from Duke to become the head coach at Virginia occurred quickly, just one day after Duke's baseball team was eliminated from the 2025 NCAA Tournament. The Blue Devils were defeated by Murray State in the Durham Super Regional, concluding their season. The following day, June 10, 2025, Pollard was announced as Virginia's new head coach, replacing Brian O'Connor, who had recently left for Mississippi State. Did Pollard leave too soon?
