George Karl Takes Joy in Coach K’s 2YO Misery Hours Before Nerve-Wracking NCAA Face-Off

No. 7 North Carolina and No. 9 Duke will meet in Durham in one of the weekend’s most anticipated games, featuring the greatest history in college basketball.

Recently, over social media, George Karl, former professional basketball coach and player, posted about the Duke vs Carolina match. Only nine NBA coaches have a winning percentage of over 1,000 games, and Karl is among them. 

Combing over his post, he claimed that if he ever feels uneasy about Duke vs. Carolina, he recalls the year 2022 and feels better. He recalled the time when Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski, ended his career as a coach following the Blue Devils’ 81-77 defeat with North Carolina in the Final Four matches in the men’s NCAA Tournament event. 

He posted with a caption, “Anytime I get nervous or uncomfortable about Duke v Carolina, I just think back to a couple years ago when Carolina spoiled Coach K’s final home game then beat them again in the Final Four!!

And I feel better!”

Yet, Krzyzewski ended his career with 1,202 wins, 101 wins in the NCAA Tournament, 13 trips to the Final Four, five national titles, and six gold medals.
