Harold Tommy Amaker Jr. (

All-American player, Amaker set numerous records and earned many honors and awards. He took Seton Hall to the post season in each of his four seasons as their coach, helped Michigan win the National Invitation Tournament the year after a probationary ban from postseason play, and had the three highest single-season win totals in the history of Harvard basketball, the school's first six Ivy League
championships and first NCAA tournament victory.

Amaker was a

Parade All-American. As a college basketball player, he set most of the assists records and many steals records for Duke basketball. He also set the Atlantic Coast Conference single-season games played and games started records. Among his numerous accolades, he was the first winner of the NABC Defensive Player of the Year
, and he was a third team All-American.

Amaker was an assistant coach for the Duke Blue Devils men's basketball under Krzyzewski for nine seasons. His first four seasons were part of a five-year streak of Final Four appearances by Duke (including back-to-back national championships). As a head coach, Amaker took the

NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament – 2000 and National Invitation Tournament – 1998, 1999, and 2001) in each of his four seasons as their coach. He dealt with the turmoil and self-imposed sanctions of the University of Michigan basketball scandal in his first years with Michigan, where he eventually won the 2004 National Invitation Tournament with the 2003–04 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team and finished as the runner-up with Michigan in the 2006 National Invitation Tournament
.

In his tenure as

Associated Press (AP) and Coaches Polls and, for the third year in a row, established a new school record for wins (26).[1] Amaker's 2011–12, 2012–13, 2013–14 and 2014–15 teams
repeated as Ivy League champions. The 2012–13 team gave Harvard its first NCAA tournament victory. The 2013–14 team posted a record 27 wins. Amaker became the winningest coach in school history in 2016.

Early years

Amaker was born in Falls Church, Virginia, in 1965.

Amaker resided in Falls Church, but he attended W.T. Woodson High School in Fairfax, Virginia, because his mother, Alma Amaker, was a high school English teacher in Fairfax County. Her job allowed her to choose among the county schools, her choice made because the school's basketball coach, Red Jenkins, who called Amaker "T-bird",[2] had been impressed with his performances at his youth summer league since Amaker was 10 years old.[3] He began playing varsity for Woodson by December,[3] making him the first freshman to play varsity in the school's history.[4] His mother, whom Jenkins called "his first coach and his best coach," attended his practices and graded papers in the coach's office.[2]

Duke University basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski, who had just completed his first season as Duke coach, was in town to evaluate Johnny Dawkins in a 1981 Washington D.C. summer league game, but was convinced to stay for a second game to see Amaker play. Krzyzewski met Amaker's mother and said, "Mrs. Amaker, your son is going to look great in Duke blue."[5] At the time, Amaker had wanted to play for the Maryland Terrapins because his sister Tami went to the University of Maryland, College Park and Amaker idolized Maryland star guard John Lucas.[2] He was recruited eventually to Duke by assistant coach Chuck Swenson, who would later become an assistant coach during Amaker's first five seasons at Michigan from 2001 to 2006.[2]

Amaker played on the 1983

Parade All-American team.[4] According to the Fairfax Connection, the county changed the rules regarding where teachers could send their children due to Amaker's success at Woodson.[3]

College career

Amaker was a star point guard at Duke after becoming a freshman starter for head coach Krzyzewski. He led the team in assists three years and in steals four seasons.[6] While at Duke his roommate for away games was Mike Brey.[2]

Freshman and sophomore years

Dawkins played point guard for the 1982–83 Blue Devils, but moved to shooting guard the following year to make way for Amaker.[7] When Amaker joined the 1983–84 Blue Devils, unranked Duke, led by Dawkins and Amaker, won its first seven games, the longest winning streak of fourth-year head coach Krzyzewski's career. Amaker had a field goal accuracy of over 65 percent in those games.[8] He led Duke to the NCAA Tournament during his 1984 freshman and 1985 sophomore seasons, but neither team advanced to the Sweet Sixteen (regional semifinals).[9][10] In the quarterfinal round of the 1984 ACC men's basketball tournament against the Mark Price-led Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets,[11][12] Amaker hit the game-winning shot with the score tied and less than 10 seconds left in overtime. In some instances, Amaker's defense changed the game by limiting dribble penetration and forcing low shooting percentages regardless of whether he had notable offensive contributions.[13]

Junior year

During Amaker's junior year (1985–86), Duke won the inaugural NIT Season Tip-Off (then known as the preseason National Invitation Tournament) and Amaker had nine assists in the championship game against a Danny Manning-led Kansas team.[14] In the March Carolina–Duke rivalry game against North Carolina Amaker stole the ball from Jeff Lebo and made a layup that gave Duke a late first half three-point lead it never surrendered. The win clinched Duke's first regular season ACC Championship since 1966.[15] According to ESPN college basketball color commentator Dick Vitale, Amaker had a reputation for putting pressure on the ball.[16] That year, he helped the team win the 1986 ACC men's basketball tournament, including a championship game victory over the Price-led Georgia Tech.[17]

Duke entered the 1986 NCAA tournament ranked number one with a team that was built around the defensive efforts of its guards, Dawkins and Amaker.[17][18] In the final four with Duke clinging to a 69–67 lead in a rematch against Kansas, Amaker pulled down the final rebound and sank two clinching free throws in the final five seconds. The win sent Duke to the championship game, giving the team its 21st consecutive victory and an NCAA record 37 single-season victories.[19] Chicago Tribune journalist Robert Markus described Amaker and Dawkins as the best guard combination in the country,[20][21] although Vitale described Amaker as unknown.[16]

Amaker with Duke in the 1986 NCAA tournament

The 1985–86 Blue Devils finished as national runner-up in the 1986 NCAA tournament to

Old Dominion in the second round on March 15 and Louisville in the final on March 31. This seven-steal total stood as the single-game NCAA tournament record for seven years until the 1993 NCAA tournament when Darrell Hawkins had eight for Arkansas against Holy Cross and Grant Hill had eight for Duke against California.[24] The seven steals was a championship game record that was tied by Mookie Blaylock in the 1988 NCAA tournament for Oklahoma against Kansas and was surpassed by Ty Lawson in the 2009 NCAA tournament for North Carolina against Michigan State.[24] Amaker was selected to the 1986 Division I basketball tournament all-NCAA Final Four team.[25] The 1986 Duke team graduated four of its five starters (Dawkins, Mark Alarie, Jay Bilas and David Henderson), leaving Amaker with an inexperienced supporting cast for his senior season.[26] That year, Amaker was a spokesman against drug and alcohol abuse as part of an NCAA-Fiesta Bowl drug education television program.[27]

Senior year

Italy.[29] Amaker won a gold medal while serving on the US national team in the FIBA World Championship, which served as the basketball tournament for the 1986 Goodwill Games.[30][31][32]

Senior Amaker served as team

Bobby Knight, Krzyzewski's college coach.[43]

That year, the

Henry Iba Corinthian Award (also known as the NABC Defensive Player of the Year).[44] Amaker was selected to the 1987 NCAA Men's Basketball All-American third team by the NABC.[45][46] He was named to the 1987 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament All-Midwest Regional Team.[25] He was a 1987 All-ACC 2nd-team honoree and earned the team co-MVP award with Ferry that year.[47] Amaker earned a bachelor's degree in economics in 1987 from Duke.[48]

Accomplishments

Amaker set many Duke career and single-season assists records. He held the record for single-season assists in the years between 1986 and 1990, which was broken by Bobby Hurley. Hurley also broke Amaker's records in career assists per game (5.1, 1987–93) and career assists (708, 1987–92). Steve Wojciechowski broke Amaker's records in single-season assists to turnover ratio (2.88, 1985–97) and career assists to turnover ratio (2.11, 1987–98). Although his single-season assists records were surpassed by Hurley's freshman, sophomore and senior season totals, it still remains a record for a Duke junior.[22] He also held Duke's career NCAA tournament assist average record with 57 in 12 games for a 4.7 average until Hurley surpassed it with 145 in 20 games for a 7.3 average.[47] His school single-game assists record of 14 that he tied (Kevin Billerman, March 2, 1974, vs. North Carolina) vs. Miami on February 19, 1986, was not broken until Hurley's senior 1993 season and is still a record for a junior.[49]

Amaker holds several Duke and ACC records for games played. Amaker, Alarie and Dawkins have all started 40 games for the 1985–86 Duke team and both Ferry and Billy King have played 40 games in a season. Amaker's 138 consecutive games started surpassed Alarie and Dawkins' totals of 133.[22] His 138 consecutive games played was a Duke record until Chris Duhon played 144 in a row ending in 2004.[50] Consecutive games started is not shown in the 2009–10 Atlantic Coast Conference Media Guide records section. However, no ACC player has ever played more than 40 games in a season.[51]

Pro career

Following his

Staten Island Stallions.[53] He was regarded to be too small to play in the NBA at 6 feet (1.8 m) and 155 pounds (70 kg).[3] He was cut from the SuperSonics team on October 21, 1987.[54] Subsequently, he spent three days with the Wyoming Wildcatters of the Continental Basketball Association in Casper, Wyoming. He quickly decided he wanted to return to Duke to pursue a Master of Business Administration (MBA).[2]

Coaching career

Duke

After playing four years for Duke basketball, Amaker returned to serve on the staff of his former coach, Mike Krzyzewski (pictured).

Amaker accepted a graduate assistant position on Krzyzewski's staff at Duke in 1988 while pursuing his MBA degree from the

Division I head coaching opportunities.[57] Duke also won four regular season Atlantic Coast Conference men's basketball championships (1991, 1992, 1994 and 1997) and the 1992 ACC men's basketball tournament. The 1994–95 season was turbulent. In October 1994, Krzyzewski underwent back surgery. He attempted to return to coaching two weeks later but eventually was re-admitted to Duke University Hospital for four days in January due to related complications. He eventually relinquished control of the team for the season to interim coach Pete Gaudet.[58][59]

After

Division I head coaching postseason experience.[72]

Seton Hall

In 1997, Amaker took the head coaching position at Seton Hall,[57] who had missed the post season in the two prior years.[73] At 31, Amaker became the youngest head basketball coach in Big East Conference history.[57] Then, he took Seton Hall to the NCAA tournament once (2000) – when his team reached the "Sweet Sixteen" – and to the National Invitation Tournament three times (1998, 1999 and 2001).[74][75]

The 1997–98 Seton Hall team earned the sixth seed in the 1998 Big East men's basketball tournament, but were ousted in the first round by eleventh-seeded Boston College in overtime in the first round.[76] They ended up in the 1998 National Invitation Tournament where they lost in the first round to Georgia Tech to fall to a final record of 15–15.[73] After returning Seton Hall to the post season, Amaker was considered for the Michigan job,[77] but they decided to make interim coach Brian Ellerbe a full-time head coach.[78]

Seton Hall's 1998–99 team earned the ninth seed in the 1999 Big East men's basketball tournament. They defeated eighth-seeded Notre Dame in the first round, but lost by one point to top-seeded Connecticut, who went on to win the national championship.[79][80] They were invited to the 1999 National Invitation Tournament where they lost in the first round to Old Dominion and again finished 15–15.[81]

According to ESPN, Amaker recruited the #2 recruiting class in the nation for the class of 2000 while at Seton Hall.

Oklahoma State
and finished with a 22–10 record.

The 2000–01 Pirates earned the Big East West Division's sixth seed in the 2001 Big East men's basketball tournament and beat the East Division three seed St. John's and west two seed Georgetown.[91][92][93] They were defeated in the semifinals by east top seed Boston College and ended the year at 16–15.[94][95] They were invited to the 2001 National Invitation Tournament where they lost in the first round to Alabama. The following season, Amaker resigned as the Seton Hall head coach and became head coach at Michigan, replacing Ellerbe, who had been fired.[96] Amaker met with Michigan athletic director Bill Martin in a hotel lobby instead of renting a room because Martin wanted to save money. Word of the meeting got back to ESPN and the New Jersey press was not kind to Amaker, hinting that he was devious and selfish.[2]

Michigan

Amaker inherited a

2002 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament before losing to two seed, Ohio State.[99][100]

Michigan finished the 2002–03 season with a 17–13 record, but sat out both that year's NCAA and NIT tournaments due to the self-imposed postseason ban.

2003 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament, but was upset in the second round by Indiana.[103] At the conclusion of the season, the NCAA added a second year of post season ineligibility to bring the severity of the punishment to a level it deemed more appropriate.[104]

Amaker's

Hawaii and Oregon.[107][108][109][110] The team won the championship game against Rutgers, giving Amaker his highest single-season victory total up to that point in time with a 23–11 record.[75] Amaker, who has tended to avoid the spotlight, was not on the court as his team celebrated the college basketball tradition of cutting of the nets in celebration of a championship at the 2004 NIT.[2]

The

2005 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament when it lost in the first round to eighth-seeded Northwestern.[111] It posted a 13–18 record (4–12 in conference) and finished ninth in the conference.[112][113]

The Wolverines'

Old Dominion.[117][118][119][120] The team ended with a 22–11 (8–8) record.[116]

Michigan's

2007 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament, when it defeated the ninth-seeded Minnesota Golden Gophers before succumbing to top-seeded Ohio State.[121][122] After receiving a three seed, Michigan advanced to the second round of the 2007 National Invitation Tournament by beating Utah State before falling to Florida State.[75][123][124] The team finished with a 22–13 record yet only 8–8 in conference play.[124]

Amaker was credited for helping to restore the ethical reputation of a Michigan program which had been tarnished by scandal.[125][126] However, he was criticized in the press for being unable to take the Wolverines to the NCAA tournament in six seasons at the helm.[127] Some fans and sportswriters argued that Amaker's Michigan teams tended to underachieve and fall apart in pressure situations, particularly in conference, on the road and at the end of the regular season.[128] On March 17, 2007, Amaker was fired by the University of Michigan.[127] Amaker was paid $900,000 to buy out the remaining years on his contract.[129]

Harvard

Amaker in 2011

On April 11, 2007, Amaker was named head men's basketball coach at

BCS conference school.[133]

The New York Times published an accusatory article in March 2008, raising allegations of diminished academic standards among Amaker's first class of recruits and potentially improper recruiting practices.[134] Prodded by this negative publicity, the Ivy League office conducted a four-month investigation and "determined that no violations of NCAA or Ivy League rules occurred", clearing Amaker and his staff completely.[135][136] Typically, the NCAA would accept the results of a formal investigation performed by a conference office but, in this case, the NCAA initially tabled and then eventually rejected the Ivy League's findings completely. The NCAA commenced its own investigation which ultimately took two years to complete.[137]

Amaker's Harvard squad defeated then-

Coaches' Poll) on January 7, 2009 for the first win over a ranked team in the program's history.[138] His 2008–09 recruiting class was the first time an Ivy League institution was ranked in the top 25 by ESPN.[48][134]

Jeremy Lin led Amaker's 2009–10 Harvard team.

The following season, the

Fox Sports as the 2010 Ivy League Coach of the Year.[143] Amaker was mentioned for the 2010 head coach opening at St. John's.[144]

In the summer of 2010, the NCAA informed Harvard that Amaker's behavior constituted impermissible recruiting behavior.[137] Harvard and the NCAA negotiated a settlement in which the university would "declare" what the NCAA consented to classify as secondary violations.[145] Under the terms of the agreement, Harvard accepted punitive recruiting restrictions for the 2010–11 season.[146] These were the first NCAA penalties ever assessed against the Harvard men's basketball program and the first instance of the Ivy League being overruled on a formal rules interpretation.[147]

Under Amaker's leadership, the

Oklahoma State by a 71–54 margin in the first round.[158] The final record of 23–7 established a school record for number of wins, surpassing the prior season's total of 21.[142] Amaker was again a finalist for the Ben Jobe Award, was a finalist for the Hugh Durham Award and was selected by the NABC as the District 13 Coach of the Year.[159] He was named Ivy League coach of the year by Collegeinsider.com.[160]

The

NCAA tournament since 1946.[170]

On October 6, 2012, Amaker was inducted into his high school's inaugural hall of fame class.

National Sportscasters and Sportswriters Association (NSSA) Clarence "Big House" Gaines College Basketball Coach of the Year in Division I as the top minority coach,[184] the NABC Coach of the Year for District 13 and was again a finalist for the Ben Jobe Award.[185] In August, Amaker was inducted into his fourth Hall of Fame (Washington Metro Basketball Hall of Fame).[186]

The 2013–14 team won the 2013 Great Alaska Shootout and 2013–14 Ivy League conference regular season championship with a 13–1 record and posting a school record 27 wins against 5 defeats.[187][188] The team entered the 2014 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament with a number twelve seed where it defeated a (#15 AP Poll – #14 Coaches' Poll) Cincinnati team that was seeded fifth.[189] Harvard eventually lost to number (#11/13) four seed Michigan State.[190] The team was the first Ivy League school to win games in consecutive NCAA Division I men's basketball tournaments since the 1983–84 Princeton Tigers.[191]

Amaker has a chat with a referee

The 2014–15 team was the first Ivy League team to make a fifth consecutive postseason appearance since the 2001–02 Princeton Tigers men's basketball team completed a seven-year run for Princeton.[192] They were the third Ivy team to make four consecutive NCAA basketball tournament appearances, a feat last accomplished by the 1991–92 Princeton Tigers men's basketball team.[193]

On December 7, 2016, in a rivalry contest against Boston College, Amaker earned his 179th win with the 2016–17 team, surpassing Frank Sullivan as Harvard's all-time winningest coach.[194][195] Amaker led the 2017–18 Harvard Crimson to a share of the 2017–18 Ivy League men's basketball season regular season title.[196] The team reached the championship game of the 2018 Ivy League men's basketball tournament, but lost to Penn earning an automatic bid to the 2018 National Invitation Tournament.[197][198]

In addition to his coaching duties at Harvard, Amaker served as a Special Assistant to Harvard University President Larry Bacow and a Spring 2021 Fellow[199][200] at the Hauser Center for Public Leadership at the Harvard Kennedy School. In February 2021, he was named as a Champion of Diversity by the NCAA.[201][202]

Personal life

Amaker is married to Stephanie Pinder-Amaker,

sauce for his favorite meal of spaghetti and express mail it to him from her home in Falls Church, Virginia, during his career at least until his days at Michigan.[2] According to Duke teammate Bilas, Amaker was quite fashion-conscious and attempted to be a trendsetter.[203]

At Michigan, his daily routine included breakfast at a local hotel where he read

news conference.[2] Unlike most of his peers, Amaker avoids the press and will not do a radio or television show.[2]

Amaker was enshrined in the Duke Athletic Hall of Fame in 2001.[48] He was a member of the board of directors for USA Basketball. During his time on the board he served as a member of the Men's Collegiate and Men's Senior National Committees, where he helped select members of the United States 1996 Olympic gold medal team.[48] Amaker owns two vintage Mercedes-Benz cars, which were featured in an article in The Star Magazine,[205] and is a Washington Commanders fan.[2]
