Unfortunate quote from K?

Post by Ima Facultiwyfe » October 23rd, 2010, 12:23 am

“I have an Escalade and my daughters say ‘Dad you shouldn’t put trash and carry your lawn equipment in your Escalade,’” said Krzyzewski of last season’s offense. “It’s what I got.”

Somebody tell me this isn't a "Roy-ism". Sounds to me like he was trying to be folksy and put his foot in his mouth, bless his heart. I wouldn't call last year's team "trash and lawn equipment" that he had to cart around in his own big, powerful and fancy program exactly. Am I missing something? :-\

I think the quote must have a part missing - it sounds like he's responding to a comment about the type of offense Duke played last year. His response is that he's playing with the personnel he has, much as he hauls lawn equipment and trash in his Escalade. Just a guess.
