Welcome to part of my take presented by the cash app. Go download it right now. Use code bar stool. You get $10 for free. $10 the ASPCA. Today is Friday, February 21st. And I just want to say coach K around of applause. Because that guy, that guy when he loses, now you might say, hey, look, coach K loses to NC State. They're seven points favorites. Duke is, is, it's their year. They're going to win the final four. They're going to go all the way. No, they lost the NC State. It was a little bit of a stunner. Yeah, he brushed by did the blow by handshake and was a poor sport. But you forget, you forget the coach K when they lose. He's teaching the kids because he went up to NC State's best player afterwards. Mark L Johnson and he hugged him and he said you played a great game Not a good game a great game and PFT on top of all that I don't know how this happened But there's a picture of it of him talking to him. Oh really so the whole world saw him having a very private moment Where he was so classy and defeat after doing the blow by handshake which of course he always does when he loses and they rush the court and he says it's

4:08.3

a safety issue. So, he makes sure that he doesn't do even the slightest level of good sportsmanship after a long time. It's a safety issue. It's a very big safety issue. My favorite is when Coach K goes into the other teams locker room after the game. they're getting changed and tell us them what a great game that they play. Just

4:24.4

just nagging the shit out of his team that it's actually the ones that need

4:28.7

the coaching at that moment. Now, Coach K will always remind you after loss that he did you a favor by allowing himself to be beaten by you because it showed it teaches you a lot about your mental toughness if you can even take on the likes of Duke. Now this is a pretty bad job.

4:45.2

We joke around about Coach K and his like a hypokondrianism or whatever it's called. He made zero adjustments in this game. I watched the whole game. I was betting on the over class act by Duke all the way to hit that three with about 10 seconds left. I really appreciated that. But there were no adjustments made. My only conclusion, Coach K, at halftime was just on WebMD.

5:07.7

Looking up, he's like, oh, I've got polio and coronavirus. So in my grand, so I'm not going to be able to switch up my defense in the second half. I think what Coach K was doing is he is doing the classic mid-season coach move where he's like, I'm letting you guys figure it out. You guys go coach yourself. I'm not gonna put anyone in on the bench. I'm gonna let you guys figure it out and then they can come from this loss and be like, you know what, like that's the start of the DVD loss right there. You know, that will be the one where, well, we were at NC State and we were down and Coach K challenged us to come back and we didn't, but after he took away our jerseys and told us it's actually less about wins and losses and more about the lessons you learn along the way, that's one to click for us and we went on a tear afterwards. I can't wait to play that exact sound bite in like two months with some inspirational like it's probably going to. One shining moment of the week with highlights. I think that you're onto something that like Coach K intentionally didn't make any adjustments because he was letting the team know that this game was on them and they could get themselves out of the hole. They dug themselves into and then by the end of the game after they get blown out by 20 points or whatever it was, his team will finally realize that they really need Coach K. He's the only one that can save us. Because we're not able to do it on our own. And then, yeah, maybe like a little motivational thing, Coach K removes, he should remove the case from all the Duke practice jerseys, because they're not representing him. Also, they're due. So take the case off, all the practice practice series equipment bags you have to earn that k at Duke University uh... those borderline a rick riley joke but i do like that i like that the do their due take away the case boom we're ready to go i i love this when it happens in college basketball where a coach will uh... let the huddle coach itself he'll stand deliberately like 10 feet away from the Huddled

7:06.1

and be like, you guys figure it out. You guys get yourself out of this mess. It's your fault. Yeah, I went and recruited and dropped the bag at all of your houses and you're all like top five recruits. And on paper, you should beat everyone in the country by a million. And all you need is a little bit of coaching to make you great. but yeah you guys figure it out

7:24.9

yeah it's on them at this point and and their only conclusions going to be that

7:28.3

they absolutely need coach kna All you need is a little bit of coaching to make you great. But yeah, you guys figure it out. Yeah, it's on them at this point

7:26.3

And and they're only conclusions going to be that they absolutely need coach K now who are they playing next? What's Duke's schedule like they probably actually feels like they probably have a good game next because this was a probably a look ahead Spot which they always lose one of these games trap game. Yeah, where they're playing against you know No, not tech. So not a not a look ahead spot whatsoever. I mean,

7:46.3

there is no action. There's no look ahead spots really in the entire ACC this year because it's very, very top heavy. So most of the games, not exactly big time games, they'll kill Virginia tech by a billion. And then everyone will say, hey, look, they figured it out. Yeah, they don't even have any good games left. They're gonna win every single game for the rest of the season

8:05.8

So there we go. I was it Duke is here. This is this is big Look they figured it out. Yeah, they don't even have any good games left. They're gonna win every single game for the rest of the season

8:05.7

So there was a duke is here. This is this is big cats rant that he went on right there is absolutely gonna Will coach K to another NCAA test. Yes. Yeah, they're good. They Duke has already lost the last game of the year guys I said it. It's already happened. It's already happened. All right other news we got going on So that was an all-time coach K performance. I love that. I love when he teaches the kids. Don't you, Kank?

8:28.5

When you lose, he happened. It's already happened. All right other news we got going on So that was an all-time coach K performance. I love that. I love when he teaches the kids don't you kink when you lose

8:29.4

He's a coach. You have to remember when you lose. It's all about winning so when you win It's important to win but when you lose it's actually not about wins and losses is about teaching the kids It's actually sometimes a loss is better than a win. Yeah. Yeah. I would rather lose every game because then we would learn more

8:46.5

98% of yeah, the visual one athletes aren't gonna play pro sports So he has to teach them and set them up for the future. Yeah, there we go You're not see I love it. Yeah, get a statistic. Yeah, if you learn more from a loss and an interception Then you do from throwing a touchdown or winning a game like James Winston is gonna be that's why he's a future hallfamer Yeah, he's just storing up all the knowledge right now. So yeah, I would much rather lose a game for coach K our winning a game like James Winston is going to be that's why he's a future hall of favor. Yeah.

9:05.5

He's just storing up all the knowledge right now. So yeah, I would much rather lose a game for coach K then win a game for some random coach at NC State. I liked that Hank just spitted fact that us that was just an enterprise commercial like hey, you guys hear this one? Yeah, we have every single mark also 25 years of our lives. home depot employees twelve hundred olympic athletes
