Duke basketball: Critics roast Coach K for so-called 'excuse'
Essentially any news regarding the Duke basketball program attracts haters, but these haters have been out in full force in response to one recent statement.
After No. 1 Duke defeated Winthrop, 83-70, at home on Friday night, Duke Maven's Shawn Krest reported on a postgame comment from Duke basketball head coach Mike Krzyzewski.
At the tail end of Krzyzewski's postgame press conference, the 72-year-old mentioned his health from three days prior when Stephen F. Austin had marched into Cameron Indoor Stadium and knocked off the previously unbeaten Blue Devils in overtime, 65-63, snapping the program's 150-game non-conference home win streak that dated back nearly 20 years.
