Quotes about Mike Krzyzewski

I’ve read coach K [Mike Krzyzewski of Duke] say that the single greatest journey a coach can take is the one he has with the guys that are with him for four years ... The greatest journey a father can take is the time he spends with his son. I’ve been fortunate to have two very good journeys. Koby and I have had a pretty good coach-player relationship. It’s almost like they’re coming to an end at the same time. I know I’ll continue to be his father, but I’ve coached him since he was four years old.

My goal next season is for you to make one turnaround jumper for every 10 dunks. So we're hiding your passport so you can't go the Olympics. Ancient Chinese proverb says, 'Wise man develops offensive game.' Do that and you'll belong on Mount Olympus? Oh yeah, if Mike Krzyzewski finds an acupuncturist in Beijing who can cure free throw malfunctions, we'll give you back your passport.

Back in '04, watching its performance in Athens left a great deal to be desired ... I did have a prerequisite: full autonomy. I felt like we needed to change the culture . . . I would select the coaches [including head coach Mike Krzyzewski], and I would select the players, and it wouldn't come from a committee.

I didn't feel that at Duke I was in the right position to get to the next level ... Coach Wright will help me get to the next level. It's not that Coach K [Mike Krzyzewski] wouldn't, because he's done it his whole career, but I think Villanova is where I fit the best.

Only John Wooden (12), Dean Smith (11), Mike Krzyzewski (10), Denny Crum (6) and Adolph Rupp (6) took more teams to the Final Four than Lewis (5). Each of Lewis' five teams was beaten by the eventual NCAA champion.

In college, because I knew I would not have an opportunity to play professionally, I wrote letters to coaches I really admired: Bobby Knight, Mike Krzyzewski, Jerry Tarkanian, Gene Keady ... They all wrote back and talked about things like reading lots of basketball books, to attend clinics, to work summer camps and the best advice of all to observe coaches at work during the season.

As much as Travis gives us energy in our passing game, Michael gives us a cohesiveness because he knows how to move better than anybody else because of his days with (Duke coach Mike) Krzyzewski.

Everyone at Duke knew that Alleva was a pleasant man whose next original idea would be his first, someone whose main asset when applying for the job was the fact that his racquetball partner was Mike Krzyzewski.

Nowadays, the Final Four is the gold standard for college coaches ... Once you get to a Final Four, you're expected to win one. Otherwise, it's the best-coach-never-to-win-one type of deals. But you do by it starting off like Dean Smith and Coach K [Duke's Mike Krzyzewski] did it — just get there. Sometimes that can be harder than actually winning the thing, but Ben, by most measures, is one of the giants of his profession right now.

It's another step, but I think (Duke coach) Mike (Krzyzewski) has a million of them down there, and what did Dean Smith have, like, 30 of them?

The thing that they do so great, and Mike (Krzyzewski) has done such a great job every year is that they do make threes. And they get to the foul line more than their opposition does. And you kind of have to pick your poison and we really wanted to do a better job of not letting them score from behind the three (point line)
