This is a sad day for Duke fans everywhere. As a kid JJ Redick was my favorite Duke player of all time. I used to jump up and down the entire game like the Cameron crazies every game in the early 2000s. Coach K is the greatest basketball coach of all time. Cried watching this thank you JJ & Coach for my childhood memories you are truly special individuals. BEAT UNC GO BLUE DEVILS
@oo70mar was referring to the person who wrote this comment. He said greatest basketball coach, not college. So, that includes all levels and I think that’s just an hot take. Coach K is in the top 10 all time but not number 1.
@oo70mar agreed. No shade towards coach K tho, his case in the all time coach debate definitely is made stronger if we include is whole body of work including USA basketball, which is why I consider him in the top 10 all time.
Man is coaching excellence. It's been so much fun watching his teams dominate college hoops especially for a NC native. I hope duke can somehow maintain the standard coach K has established.
It will be next to impossible... the culture he built and maintained is comparable to Sir Alex Ferguson at Manchester United, and once they leave, it’s usually not the same... it’s a massive void
Even as a NC Tar Heels fan, (and Duke hater) I've got to stop and give coach K his well deserved standing ovation.👏For his illustrious career and the tremendous influence he had on so many young men as well as the sport. The entire ACC can finally breath a sigh of relief that this Tyrant of college hoops is retiring and removing his boot-heel from the throats of Duke's opponents.👢Take a bow coach K, congrats on your retirement and mad RESPECT🙏
This was such an incredible video. Love Coach K. Sad he couldn't win that last game at Duke but the season not over. Would love for him to go out on top.

The greatest coach of all-time doesn't lose as a 10 point favorite in the championship game with a loaded team nor does he lose to a 15 seed and go through stretches that last nearly a decade in which his teams underachieve. He's the "greatest of all-time" in your eyes because you're like 24 and believe everything that the media tells you without thinking for yourself.
Beautiful stuff - thanks again for sharing. My favorite moment between you two is when he talked about how the young JJ Redick wasn't prepared for the price that a player has to pay to achieve the fame that he aspires to obtain. I could see how him saying that affected you deeply. Could certainly feel that father-son relationship between you.
He IS the man for the ages in round ball. So blessed to be a part of the Duke family since my freshman year in 1962 with two Duke graduate sons in the nineties, one of two daughters-in-law (Duke cheerleader at back-to-backs) and now a sophomore granddaughter on campus, I am the luckiest of all to have these men in my family. “We are family🎶🎶”
JJ I went to Maryland while you was at Duke. I def rooted for MD, but some of the things the students were saying and doing to you back then shouldn’t be tolerated. People from the outside looking in expect you to not respond like you’re a robot or something, but what I saw you experience…that shi was not right man. Glad you didn’t get stuck in that dark place at 18 or 19.
Coach K is one of the greatest ever. My first time to know about him was with the Dream Team. The man is outstanding. I loved JJ's nba game. And his podcasts. This video, is all-pro, as JJ's game was, and as Coach-K deserves.
Great interview. I remember watching Duke & Coach K having success in those NCAA tournaments in the 1980's and gradually building the program into what is has become. His ability to lead & motivate is such an inspiration. He is a class act, all the way.
Imagine a college coach that's so good that he was sent to coach for the nation's Olympic and FIBA teams instead of any NBA coach. This is how much he's respected. 2 FIBA gold medals and 3 Olympic gold medals (4 if you count '92 as assistant coach)
The greatest coach of all-time? He's lost to a 15 seed, lost as a 10-point favorite in the title game with a loaded team that anyone could have coached to win a title, nearly lost to Butler with a stacked team full of McDonald's All-Americans, spent several seasons underachieving between titles despite having stacked teams, and now with the whole Amaker situation (not sure why that man stayed loyal to Snake K for decades), he's shown his true colors.
JJ getting flashbacks of losing on his senior night. May favorite memory? Freshman Hansbrough hitting a 3 at Cameron on JJs senior night, then going on to beat his ACC scoring record.
He’s been coaching since I was a kid I remember wanting to play for him at duke and I didn’t even play basketball lol salute to coach and happy retirement you’re a icon
I remember how other ACC teams hated on JJ Redick; it was brutal. It's cool to hear how Coach K and the Duke program "wrapped their arms around" JJ after his sophomore year. He went on to have great years as a junior and senior -- and then a terrific NBA career. And that's just one life, out of so many Coach K impacted over the years. Hats off to you, Coach K!
As a long time UNC fan, back to the Jordan days I "hated" Duke for the longest time. Same reason I hated the Bulls being a Detroit fan, they were just too good. However, I always watched the games, all these years. Now I realize it wasn't primarily because of the players it was because of Coach K. I love the show JJ, enjoy the game. This man is a legend and will go down as the best coach ever in college basketball, not just statistically but as a person that really cared about the players, even YEARS later.
JJ REDICK Listen to me .....Here is a guy with a winning record with Duke for almost 40 years ... WOW.... only 2 losing season's Ya never gonna see a guy like MIKE K like this again. Gotta find out were he gets his hair dye He looks great GOOD LUCK MIKE WHAT EVER YOU DO JG....
I don't get into what ifs and what I could change if I could but man, I wish I had a Coach like Coach K in my life. The notion is that in order to be great, you need a great mentor. Kudos to all the men blessed with the opportunity to learn under a truly great manbuilder! I only have one little Coach K story. Illinois played against Duke in Atlanta in 2003. I had coaches tickets. JJ, you were there. It was you vs Deron Williams. SStephen A was there. I don't even remember what happened in the game. All I remember is when Coach K and his assignments came out in all black suits. A feeling hit me in the stomach. I was intimidated and I wasn't even playing. Coach had the most intense look on his face I've ever seen. I instantly realized how real the Duke mystique was. The players had the same demeanor. JJ was the cockiest man on 2 feet. It was great. You haven't lived until you have seen a Sheldon Williams illegal screen in person! Salute to Coach K!!
my all time Duke team 1. Kyrie Irving 2. Grant Hill 3. Elton Brand 4. Zion Williamson 5. Jayson Tatum 6. Carlos Boozer 7. Jack Marin 8. Corey Maggette 9. Christian Laettner 10. Brandon Ingram 11. Shane Battier 12. Luol Deng 13. JJ Redick 14. Wendell Carter Jr. 15. RJ Barrett
How do you fix the US Olympic team, get a college coach in there! Brilliant guy, great video- Keep up the great content JJ (Cave springs forever). Also stop slumming" on first take, you're better than that. Cheers.
its gonna be an emotional day JJ. Go Duke. Go class of '06. I know the team is coming in with a serious chip on their shoulder after the Tarholes disrespected Coach K at the Dean Dome this year. GTHC
Coach K it the greatest college basketball coach ever. He’s coached in three different eras and won national championships in all of those eras. No disrespect to John Wooden (who has the most championships), but check his coaching record before Sam Gilbert got there and his record after he got there. Bill Walton is on record (maybe jokingly) saying he got paid more at UCLA than what Jerry West got paid on the Lakers. In any case, to me, coach K is basically Bobby Knight (who has the greatest basketball mind of all time) without all that other unnecessary baggage he brought.
I’m a lifelong UNC fan and I must admit, if I bothered to watch the games anymore, I would miss seeing Coach K on the sideline. Still can’t wrap my head around why people think he’s the GOAT, but to each his own.
@@sethcollins748 1. The only argument people have in favor of him being the GOAT is his win total. That doesn’t mean as much as people think it does. When you coach one team for a large portion of your life, you’re going to rack up a lot of wins. 2. For the last 10-12 years this man has had the best, or a top 3, recruiting class basically every year, and time and time again they were upset by inferior teams come playoff time. That’s coaching.
for some reason it felt like I was looking at a father and his son. dope relationship to have with a coach

He was your favorite player but you can’t even spell his name right.
Coach K greatest of all time?

This was such an incredible video. Love Coach K. Sad he couldn't win that last game at Duke but the season not over. Would love for him to go out on top.
It’s abundantly clear how much Coach K means to JJ, great clip 💪🏼

You the real MVP
Doing god's work son.
The Kobe story, is crazy. A real Mamba story
I'm a Jordan kid and grew to love this man and his program, thank you Coach K.
definitely the greatest college coach of all time,produced nba stars with knowledge and class,coach k will be missed❤️
I have to agree with this but for me PERSONALLY I think that Bobby Knight is tied with Coach K.
John Wooden guys come on
@@jwamp07 John Wooden for me then Dean Smith and Coach K tied for 2. Bobby Knight was great too but those tantrums he had were ridiculous
Wooden then Coach K.

And hopefully a national championship

Love yr podcast JJ. Humble young man. I'm a Coach Knight disciple from Indiana. Love Coach K.
Respect, JJ, for taking the time and having the thought to do this. Class act.
This was fire, thank you coach. Thank you JJ.
The Greatest Coach of all Time. I'm going to miss seeing him on the sidelines. He'll of a great career. And J.J. is my favorite player from Duke

John Wooden exists
Definitely one of the greatest and he'll be missed but John Wooden and Dean Smith are hard to top IMO
@@RobbieStacks90 In terms of ranking coaches all time, where do you see him if he is not #1 all time?
Honour to have watched and witnessed Coach K
Love this man. DukeNation will miss you coach 🐐
UVA grad so I'm supposed to hate Duke, but this is absolute class. Hella respect.
Same here. I graduated in 2001. I have developed an appreciation for coach K over time. Wahoowa!!!!!

This is super cool JJ
To have someone like Coach K in their life is a true gift.
Yeah, last night was a very special night for Duke and Carolina fans everywhere! 😁
Favorite Duke player ever.
Great work JJ happy to see you've stuck to your word of staying consistent

What a run. One of the greatest coaches in the history of sports. College hoops will never be the same without coach K.
Loved this JJ. Coach K would forever be great
I’m not crying….💙💙💙😭😭😭
I'm already pre-embarrassed for my upcoming reaction to hearing the final buzzer!
Kobe's story is just so amazing. It's weird but I still feel sad when I remember him... GOAT
Coach K is such a good guy, you can tell he cares about the players he’s coached. Legend 🙏🏼
THANKS UNC FOR THAT HUGE W AT CAMERON LOL
Good stuff. Good show, good content. Nice heartfelt tribute. Thx!+
What great stories. The Duke turnaround story is amazing. Enjoy retirement Coach K.

Go Heels always but I’m grateful my school gets to be there for his last home game!

Coach K helped young men become a better version on themselves on and off the floor
Basketball excellence.
Love love to see him coach an NBA team for one season.

The fact I’m 22 and I’ll never be able to play for Duke coached by Coach K 😭
Bball players what makes a good coach? How much does a coach actually impact the game ? Especially when they have a all time great player ?
Contrary to what most believe, coaches aren't measured by the plays they call. Off the playing field makes the coach great.
