Roy Williams Hearts Coach K.
College coaches are so damn touchy. According to ESPN, Roy Williams and Mike Krzyzewski have beef and may come out with dueling rap albums in an attempt to squash it. Okay; maybe not, but Williams did take offense at some comments made by K:
Krzyzewski’s comment came in a radio interview after Duke’s loss at Wake Forest. While noting that freshman Nolan Smith had been playing through a knee injury for a few weeks, Krzyzewski added, “unlike other schools we don’t release our injuries,” according to the Web site for radio station WRBZ-AM in Raleigh.
Williams felt that the comments were aimed at him and North Carolina who have suffered a rash of injuries this season:
Williams said on his weekly radio show: “Regardless of what somebody else says about they have injuries too, which is a bunch of bunk, so I don’t give a crap what somebody else says, but coach their own damn team, I’ll coach my team — in case anybody has heard some statements about that.”
Somebody separate these two before the slap-fighting starts; or worse, they decide to mud-wrestle. If I had to make a prediction it would be Coach K. getting the victory in the second round by necktie strangulation.
