Legendary Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski will retire following the upcoming 2021-22 college basketball season, according to Stadium's Jeff Goodman. Krzyzewski, who turned 74 in February and is famously known as "Coach K," has led the Duke to five NCAA Tournament victories, 12 Final Four appearances and 27 combined ACC titles in tournament and regular-season competition since taking over the program ahead of the 1980-81 season.

Not only that, but Carolina had a player named Scott Williams who lost both parents in a murder/suicide occurance...

Dukes fans at Cameron started a chant “ORPHAN!! ORPHAN!!”
when Williams took to the court...

Coach K just sat there and let it go on...

Totally no class to the man...

You don’t know their names, and neither do I.

Thank you, you just made my point......

And for the record, as I stated to you previously, Coach K is not the arbiter of justice just as all the other dumbass FReepers here who have supported causes that turned out to be fake........

Sorry dude, Coach K never had any obligation, either legally or otherwise, to make a judgement call on that specific case......

So take your hatred of coach K somewhere else because your dog don't hunt............

As a post script, based on your twisted logic, you might as well condemn coach K for not speaking out against the Global Warming crap since he has so much clout.......LOL!

By that logic, Oh Sadaharu is the greatest slugger of all time.

He may be. Babe Ruth didn’t play against blacks. Would Jim Brown or Bill Russell be as dominant today against today’s athletes? Geno coaches college girls, but that shouldn’t detract from what he has accomplished. He created a powerhouse from a program that had only one winning system in its history.

Comparisons like analogies breakdown under greater scrutiny. You can only plow the fields with the oxen God gave you.

Ichiro Suzuki was the greatest Japanese born player. He came to MLB at age 28 after starring in Japan. Ichiro had a remarkable MLB career. He had over 3,000 hits and when combined with his Japanese league stats had more total hits than Pete Rose. So comparing Oh to other baseball greats, it is not far fetched to say he may be the greatest slugger of all times.

Lol. The article says the Dukies have “won 5 Tournament games,” not 5 Tournament championships. Right?
