Cue the conspiracy theories. ;D
Wojo flight tracker?
I was in Vegas around 18 years ago. Duke had lost the previous game, so I bet on Duke on the theory that they never lose two in a row. They lost and ended up losing 10 in a row. Coach K missed the last 6 or 7 games of that streak supposedly with a bad back. My conspiracy theory is that Duke is starting to lose and K cannot handle it, so he will miss as many games as possible. As far as Wojo, it would be good for MU, if Coach K retired this season as Wojo has not yet accomplished enough to be considered for the Duke job.

I always thought that about the "bad back" story. How convenient.
He's really not much of a coach, very overrated.

Here, why don't you update his wiki. I would put it right after the section about his five national championships and having more final four appearances than any other coach besides Wooden (who he's tied with).
K doesn't coach ... and Duke wins.
Still more proof that his leash is at least as short as Wojo's!
(Too lazy and disinterested to bump my "K's leash" thread.)
I'm surprised no one has posted here that Duke's consecutive AP Top 25 streak that ended at 167 weeks is tied for 5th longest with Marquette from 1969-1979.
Coach K to Roswell.

Great insight, he must have tripped into 5 national titles, 12 final fours and 13 ACC titles. Duke made the final four 4 times before he arrived and never won a title. Collect yourself.
Please fill up the Teal cartridge.

Huge sarcasm alert. He was referencing the K-on-a-short-leash thread and the genius who actually said that.

Well, I created the K's leash thread as a spoof of the ridiculous Wojo's leash thread. Guess I shoulda put the whole thing in teal.
You are correct. What I should have said is that he was referencing the K-on-a-short-leash thread, itself a sarcastic spoof of the Wojo's leash thread, and the one brainiac who took it seriously.
