Evil Incarnate

There's so much to report about last night's Maryland-Duke game, which I had the pleasure of attending.

I have no voice, I'm physically exhausted, but I do feel the need to post this picture.

I don't know how much ESPN's feed caught it, but I've now been to 11 Maryland-Duke games. Last night, Coach K was more absolutely out-of-control than I have ever seen him in my life. Not Gary Williams sweating, yelling, rage-filled... but actually "You look like you're about to act like your mentor Bob Knight and run onto the court and punch a referee" rage.

His team lost a lot. They likely lost a #1 NCAA Tourney seed. They possibly (though unlikely) will lose their #1 seed in the ACC Tournament. They lost momentum. And, most importantly, they were completely exposed as having no depth. In a game when they couldn't get any performance from Zoubek, and even less than nothing from Lance Thomas, Duke was completely and totally exposed. Coach K was outcoached.

And, now we have pictorial evidence... contrary to Duke fans' assertions, the biggest maniac in the ACC head coaching ranks is Coach K.
