Coach K had some very nice things to say about Toledo and Coach K and the players.

I could have done with one less "lot's of problems," Bad memories, lol.

Nice interview but man it must be nice to have the challenge of gelling some of the best Freshmen in the country. The winning is nice no doubt but isn't it more fun as a fan to actually have time to get to know the players? I don't think I'd ever really want UT at that level, one and dones.

Both of these coach "K"s are quality coaches with a plan. Duke's coach "K" showed some class by pulling Okafor when Boothe fouled out. Jerk coaches would not have made that move. This was a solid effort by the Rockets. What a great experience. Hopefully some pictures can be framed for the guys matching up against mostly future NBA ball players. That may go both ways.

Toledo did a commendable job despite deficiencies that most teams have against Duke. Weatherspoons second half dunk on a rebound was awesome. Juice did a great job running the offense. Toledo's quickness was noticeable from Juice and Drummond to name a few. Jonathan will continue to improve and could be really special as the season progresses if he chooses to embrace the opportunity. I am so glad we have Boothe.

Toledo's youth was evident on substitution, but who recruits 2-3 deep as solid as Duke? Kentucky and....?

Nice job guys. build on it.

Boy oh boy if our Coach K doesnt get some big time looks at the end of this year after those comments from Dukes Coach K I would be shocked!

He should show some class. Both Duke and ESPN approached UT about playing the game. UT did them a favor.

Showing the Rockets on national television during the holidays against one of the top Men's BB programs and a HC that's right up there with Wooden, Rupp, Dean Smith, etc.. UT did them a big favor.

But coach K did say that Fook and ESPN gave him a call about this game because they (ESPN/Dook) wanted a good opponent for a TV game.

they should have told them to play at Toledo.....im sure duke could handle it since just about every other out of conference game they play is at home for them

Clip from UT's youtube.

That is exactly what I was thinking as the comments were aired. It reminded me of the comments made about Pinkel on ESPN when Toledo beat Penn State in football.
