K not coaching tonight

Cue the conspiracy theories.

Kashima?

[CubillanSandwich]

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.)

[Spotcheck Billy]

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.

[tower912]

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.

Thanks muchly, tower.

[esotericmindguy]

Got it. My fault.
