Goodbye to you....Coach K

Which is ironic considering Emeka sat for 16 minutes in the first half because of 2 awful fouls

Yup I was just about to say that. If Okafor didn’t have to sit for 16 min I that game, that game unfolds much differently in UConn’s favor..both of those calls were bogus, too.

They thought Langdon was fouled, they thought Redick was fouled. For once the refs didn’t screw us either time.

Duke board is a pretty fun read right now with Duke fans admitting UNC owns them forever and UConn is still in their heads.

Do you have a link to the UConn comments? I want to read the salt lol

Omg their board is in full meltdown mode. There is a hilarious mod message that someone just got banned for “repeatedly wishing death upon others” hahahahah

LINK?!

Lol

Loved how Hubert Davis kept it moving with the handshake, no fake love on his end let's move on from that era

 

[Rocktheworld]

Roy was having a blast tonight. I have way more respect for Roy now after how he just retired with no fanfare.

Respect and Roy don’t belong in the same sentence.

 

[Rocktheworld]

Oh, pretty sure CBS will not let him fade away, they’ll push him in our faces as often and as long as they can. Expect a ‘K Retrospective’ Monday night.

He’s gonna be the next Seth Greenberg and god help us all

 

[Rocktheworld]

Kinda pissed he kept it classy there

Yet his players who employ his example walked right off.

Interesting

In K’s final moment as a coach, telling Howie Rowe or whomever how he feels, he sent his team into the locker room so this could be his last moment

Dude must have a bean-sized……. Whatever allegory you want

 

[Rocktheworld]

Obviously we won’t. But nothing will be lost to the sport. In 3 weeks nobody will care.

And in a year from now, when John Freakin Sheyer, whom he hand-picked, is failing, he will be comfortably distant.

Let’s talk about it

Great coach… even greater ego…. Couldn’t stand the whole Coach K retirement tour. Roy and Calhoun did it right…. Retire into the sunset with class. Don’t announce before the season and make the games about yourself instead of the players. Good riddance.

 

[UncleSpliff]

Do you really think Scheyer will fail? They have 3 of the top 5 players in high school coming in for next season. You don’t have to be a great coach to tell 3 McDonald’s all Americans (2 7 footers) to lace ‘‘em up and go get some wins.

I'll never understand why one and done players choose high caliber academic schools like Duke. I'd be Miami or Florida or somewhere all day long.

Which is ironic considering Emeka sat for 16 minutes in the first half because of 2 awful fouls

And picked up his third immediately to start the second half. With Meka in the game, it was as bad as UConn v GA Tech two nights later

Uncompetitive

 

[willie99]

Who will miss coach k?

NJ high school geeks
Herbert Davis
Jim Calhoun
Dook Vitale
ESPN
Dook's' Drama Faculty
K's colorist

 

[willie99]

Have you seen their recruit rankings? Don't think they,'re begging on the portal to have a point guard.

I love it when our board hates our roster, good things happen

Not sure why everyone overlooks what we do have. It's pretty darn good

 

[billybud]

Coach 40 years ar a school and you become legendary and get attention....

Have a great retirement Coach K...you were good for the sport.

And...how great it's been to have two schools eight miles apart build such a rivalry....fun to watch.

 

[Billy Bob]

Adios mofo. Going out with a loss on the national stage is nirvana

 

[djct1999]

Yes, ESPN and the ACC Network will.

 

[Billy Bob]

We will see how Scheyer recruits after this year

 

[XLCenterFan]

The hate for K is ridiculous. Reminds me of drunk Sox fans at Fenway who have a hard on for the Yankees and start chanting "Yankees suck" even if they aren't playing the Yanks. K is a legend. My UConn fandom hasn't blinded me to that.

You won’t miss him yet you’re going out of your way to start conversations about him.
