Coach K On This Season And Retirement

We’ve been incredibly lucky to have Mike Krzyzewski at Duke since 1980. He was a promising young coach when Tom Butters controversially hired him but who could have predicted what he has accomplished? We’re not sure anyone, other than himself, Butters and perhaps Bob Knight, expected this level of accomplishment.

We’ve been lucky, too, that Mike DeCourcy of The Sporting News isn’t locked behind a paywall and occasionally writes wonderful long form pieces.

Those two bits of good fortune intersect with this article about Krzyzewski in his (don't say the L word) season as a coach.

There’s some classic Krzyzewski here.
