"BTW, my son DREAMS of playing for Coach K."

The difference between the party habits of the basketball team and the party habits of the lacrosse team is that the basketball team gets a pass from the press. Coach K is a little bit more on the ball as far as protecting his players also. I don't think Pressler (the LAX coach) ever has seen fit to get up at 3am and run down to the campus police station to pick up his star 3-point shooter before.

Besides, why would you're son want to ruin any chance to become an NBA star?

Tha reminds me of the old joke from the 80's:

Q: How do you keep Michael Jordan under 30 points?
A: Have him play for Dean Smith.

I know Coach K runs a very tight ship and basketball generates gazillions of $$$$ for Duke, however, the true colors of the administration, faculty and community are exposed. Male, white, athlete= guilt
