You Tube Gold: Utter Joy From Coach K

Most of our You Tube Golds are longer than the one you’re about to see but most Duke fans won’t mind.

This is a clip from 1988, one of the first times that a Mike Krzyzewski team beat a Dean Smith team three times. There were T shirts about Duke’s Triple Crown. It was a big deal because Duke had not yet caught up to, much less surpassed, UNC’s powerful program.

That would come soon enough.

In this brief clip, Duke is about to beat UNC to win the 1988 ACC Tournament. When the Tar Heels inbounds, Robert Brickey steals the pass and Coach K just goes wild.
