     Miscellaneous Info: Bill Foster joined Duke in 1975, 
          after one of Duke's worst seasons.  By 1978, the Blue 
          Devils had reached new heights - an ACC championship, a 
          runnerup position in the NCAA championship game and a 
          27-7 record.  It was the first squad in ACC history to 
          jump from last place to the league championship in one 
          season.
