Krzyzewski's final Smith Center game won't include a retirement gift

Posted Jan 28, 2022
When Mike Krzyzewski won his 1,000th career game in 2015, UNC had a brief ceremony before the Duke game at the Smith Center and gave Krzyzewski a plaque commemorating the milestone. The UNC fanbase didn’t react enthusiastically to that move. That won’t happen on Feb. 5 when Krzyzewski coaches his final game at the Smith Center. (Tar Heel Tribune)
