You mean Stevens? Or do you mean philosophical successor?

I wonder whether we'll ever see an attorney who has been in solo practice, who didn't graduate from an Ivy League school appointed to the SCOTUS. Looking back at the maelstrom that followed Miers' nomination, I doubt it.
Solo practice, not likely. Not the right "track," I'm afraid. As for Ivy League, Stevens went to Northwestern Law School, and O'Conner went to Stanford. Not exactly Podunk College of Law, but not Ivy League either.

OT: Are you and your family okay after the storms in OKC?
