Coach K says media's criticism of Duke has gone too far

Featured Replies

Did Tubby complain about it?

 

I don't recall. If he did, it sure was drowned out by the moans and groans of the "everybody is against us" UK fan base.

Over the years Duke and Coach K have got break after break, on and off the court, and the media is usually so pro-Duke and Coach K it is bordering on idol worship.

 

Hey.... hes not just a basketball coach. He is someone that wants to make you a great person who just happens to play basketball.

Apples and Oranges, Jim. If you want to make that comparison (UK and Duke), then it should be made between coach and coach, not coach and fans.

 

Fans complain about nearly everything, and not just fans of one school, all of them. But coaches rarely come out with this type of whinery.

That pretty well sums it up right there.

Then it's probably pretty safe to say Duke fans had been doing some whining as well. And I don't recall for sure if Tubby mentioned anything about the Minneapolis posting; maybe he did (not that it excuses anyone — fans or coaches — from childish behavior).

They probably did (Duke fans), but I don't have any idea nor do I particularly take an interest.

 

But we both know if Tubby had whined, you would remember it. ;):D

Well, considering Duke and UK are such fierce "rivals," their fortunes are inextricably intertwined. It's only natural.

So what is your point in all of this? Fans all over the country can be idiots. If we want to do a thread about fans we can fuss about everyone.

 

We are simply discussing Coach K and how everyone feels about his remarks.

And another thinly veiled shot at UK fans. You're doing good. Keep it up.

I don't have to work that hard at it; you guys give me so much material to work with …

You are right, I forgot all about that. :laugh:
