Coach K And Roy Switching Places?
Not jobs. What an awful thought.
Luke DeCock has a funny bit up at the News & Observer about how Mike Krzyzewski and Roy Williams have, to an extent, switched roles with Ol’ Roy doing things that Coach K usually does and vice versa.
To an extent that’s because their rosters are reversed and so being practical yet imaginative men, they’re having to use different ways to get to their typical ends.
Good news: excellent examples of other ways of doing things are nearby.
As long as it doesn't delve into academics and paper classes it’s all cool.
Actually this follows up on something Coach K said a while back about learning to appreciate Dean Smith more as his career began to parallel Smith’s and it follows up on something we’ve noticed too.
In weird ways, Duke and UNC tend to parallel each other. You can look at Final Fours where one seems to inspire the other to get there next but it goes deeper than that. It’s one reason why we don’t wish too much bad stuff on UNC - some form of it always seems to rebound down 15-501 and it goes the other way too.
