Duke Blue Devils AD Kevin White to step down in August after 13 years

Just a month after the ACC hired a new commissioner, its longest-serving athletic director is also retiring. Duke AD Kevin White announced he would step down in August after leading the Blue Devils' athletics since 2008, and university president Vincent Price said the school would soon begin a national search for White's replacement. "This unequivocally represents the most difficult professional decision that I have ever made," White said in a release from the school. "As I look forward to completing my 47th year in higher education, including teaching, coaching, and administration, it is simply the right time to step aside and provide a distinct opportunity for both new and different voices, and a more contemporary vision." During White's tenure at Duke, the Blue Devils captured eight NCAA championships, including the 2010 and 2015 men's basketball titles. The Blue Devils' men's basketball program, which finished the 2006-07 season unranked, landed in the top 10 in 10 of White's 13 years at Duke.
