Coach K voiced his frustrations with NCAA policies on Friday.
Over the past few years, Mike Krzyzewski has grown more vocal with his criticisms of the lack of leadership atop college basketball’s governing body. And most recently, the 75-year-old suggested a model similar to that of college football.
Saying, “You’ve got to look at structure and organization and shared leadership.”

“Everyone knows the NCAA needs to be torn down and built into something better. Coach K saying so is not a revelation,” Stewart Mandel followed-up. “… Emulating College Football’s structure — the CFP just spent 7 months debating something that didn’t end up happening — ain’t it.”
