Yea, Coach K obviously took Duke to another level but Bill Foster and Vic Bubas really created the foundation in the 60s and 70s. They went national runner up, R32, E8 in his last 3 years there. And Vic Bubas had elite teams in the 1960s as well (3 Final Fours).
K actually came in and they fell way back for the first 3 years before he got things cranked up. Duke had been to 4 final fours and been national runner up 2x before K even got there.

Duke went to the Finals two years before Coach K arrived.
3 years before. They went to the regional final the year before Coach K was hired, the second round 2 years before, and were runner up the year before that.
That coach, Bill Foster, then went to South Carolina and Northwestern and in 13 seasons never made another NCAA tournament.
