Duke assistant coach Johnny Dawkins, left, looks on as Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewsk yells at an official during a college basketball game against Boston University in Durham, N.C. in this Nov.14, 2005 file photo. Dawkins, a longtime assistant at Duke, has been hired as Stanford's new men's basketball coach, two people close to the situation said Saturday, April 26, 2008.

In Johnny Dawkins, Stanford found a respected coach from another storied program -- certainly a favorable mix in the eyes of athletic director Bob Bowlsby. Dawkins, a longtime assistant coach at Duke under Hall of Fame coach Mike Krzyzewski, has been hired as the Cardinal's new coach. He replaces Pac-10 Coach of the Year Trent Johnson, who left for LSU earlier this month.
