Posted Feb 23, 2021
The Syracuse-Duke basketball game in Cameron on Monday night marked a clash between the two oldest coaches in the history of college basketball. Jim Boeheim and Mike Krzyzewski are 150 years old, the Orange leader at 76 and Coach K at 74. If Roy Williams coaches through the end of his contract in 2028, he will be two months short of 78.
