Attitudes towards Duke and Coach K

[dhaab]

Interesting column about the Duke (coach K) "mystique". I personally think this article is dead-on. I admire many of the things coach K does, but I believe he abuses his power and prestige in college b-ball.

"Over the course of Krzyzewski's 24 years at Duke, there has been much to like. There also has been much to dislike. For the past seven of those years I've had a front-row seat, and to this day I'm not sure which side of the Duke fence to call home."

"I like that Coach K had the nerve, more than 20 years ago, to speak out against the officiating double standard enjoyed by North Carolina legend Dean Smith. I dislike that Coach K, now a legend himself, seeks that same officiating double standard through intimidation -- and has the nerve to say he doesn't seek it, or get it."
