Good ole Coach K

Go Nate Oats!!! Oats calls out Coach K...

Oats' query: Coach K's call to halt tied to losses?

Alabama's Nate Oats seemed to challenge Mike Krzyzewski's motives for questioning playing basketball during a pandemic, asking a reporter, "Do you think if Coach K hadn't lost his two nonconference games at home that he would still be saying that?"

Here's the video.

Nate Oats for the win.



I've always liked him and this boosts him up a notch.

I like the way Nate is thinking.. I also think K sees UConn "down the road" in the Tournament.. Doesn't want to go through that again!! But seriously.. Let's keep our student athletes healthy as a priority.. It's a weird year!! I think K is following Jeff Capel's sentiments of earlier this week TBH

 

[huskymedic]

What a sore loser.

 

[mussels]

If the trend catches on - one more reason to be thankful we're in the Big East.

 

[HeGotGame]

Duke has one remaining non-conference, against Gardner-Webb, what a martyr

You know what? There were zero deaths from COVID 19 until there were. We are now seeing a World Trade Center number EVERY FRIGGIN’ DAY

 

[MilliniumPrince]

If "no one has died" is your standard for success in anything, you are probably living a poor life.

People who use that lack of death as a positive sign rarely address the issue of long term effects of covid. We have no idea what they are or are not, yet we are willing to risk the lives of young people so we can be entertained.

That said, Coach K picked a convenient time to find Covid Religion.

Came here for the K back surgery jokes, was not disappointed.

I'm glad someone finally had the stones to call him out.

Nate Oats needs to watch his mouth when he’s addressing one of the GOATS. Where’s Nate going to be in 10 years? This guy was coaching HS like 7 years ago and now resides in Alabama.

Nat Oats got his attention...K made the bold move of skipping his 2 cupcake games before the conference schedule and sending the kids home for 4 days, so brave.

Never noticed it before and clearly showing my age, but the white sneakers with the dark suits look ridiculous. (Woody Allen with the sneakers and the tux was funny but he was a comedian) Yeah, I know sponsorship deals and all that, but coaches are supposed to wear generic black coach sneakers. Think Coach Cutlip.

K is such a rat bastard

Brief. Concise. But somehow full of poetic beauty.

 

[DarthGrumpy]

Coach K is such an arrogant, whiney, arse. Yes, he wins a lot, with a lot fo help from the ACC and NCAA and if things don't go his way, he has a temper tantrum.

While I'd love to pile on K for this, it was for charity. If the sneakers were black nobody would notice they were wearing sneakers. Coaches do this once every season.

Suits and Sneakers Week – January 25-31, 2021

Wonder if any on the Duke Fan Website will see this video in this context , on this board, together with the other comments?

That may rekindle an online resumption of the rivalry.

Wonder if other ACC fan websites have their own renditions of the above?

What are you, the Nate Oats fan club? Be more creative.

Better than Wethersfield, CT.

Also, sweet post.
