Krzyzewski in One-Car Accident

Duke basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski was in a one-car accident Friday driving to work but held practice as normal, Duke spokesman Jon Jackson said.

Jackson said the accident “was nothing serious.” Jackson said Krzyzewski was not injured.

Police have charged the tree that Krzyzewski hit with a flagrant blocking foul and awarded Duke with two shots and the ball.

    The tree definitely flopped.

    This just in, Heather Dinich reporting…Butch Davis is personally checking every pine tree around Kenan to make sure none of his trees were harmed in the incident.

    I thought this ended when the AD left for LSU. Oh right — that was a boat.

    The frustrating part of it is now you are going to see Coach K in one of those GEICO commercials. Maybe not with Mrs. Butterworth “My goodness someone has put a logo over my face” but it could be a game between Duke and the Cavemen.

    I cannot imagine the F Bombs that K dropped on that tree after the accident!

    Kenny Inge was subsequently whistled for a technical for living down the road in Cary.

    These comments are pretty funny 🙂

    But I am glad it was nothing serious … I give Duke, their refs, and Coach K a lot of grief but K was close with V (too many one letter last name nicknames perhaps?) and has always been complimentary of State and it’s fans …

    Of course, what’s said behind closed doors could be another story 😉

    Ohh, and the tree obviously didn’t use proper technique while trying to flop

    This deserves its own thread but I thought I would go ahead and post it.

    “Oooooooo Fender Bender”

    I heard talks are already underway for Coach K to join as the fourth PIP as a sequel to their original spot.

    Please do not worry, Coach K has assured everyone that the upcoming GEICO commercial would be “done in great taste” like all of his commercials that we have seen again and again and again and again.

    “So Coach K is OK; that’s good news. And though I had a few reasonable jokes of my own, I’ll refrain and simply turn things over to a North Carolina State blog, which commented: “Police have charged the tree that Krzyzewski hit with a flagrant blocking foul and awarded Duke with two shots and the ball.”

    ^ Thanks for pointing that out to me, Wulfpup. Someone also commented to the article that “as a Duke fan, I love that kind of joke. Hilarious and true. Those are always the best. Thank you NC State blog.”
