Mike Krzyzewski had an all-time response after Tom Izzo gave him quite the compliment.
Izzo spoke after Michigan State’s win over Davidson over the weekend and called Coach K “the GOAT” (Greatest of all time) as he was preparing to face him one more time.
On Saturday during a press conference, Krzyzewski learned about Izzo’s comment and made sure to respond with a funny joke.
“I’m glad he didn’t call me another animal,” Krzyzewski said.
Krzyzewski told about Izzo calling him “the GOAT” yesterday. “I’m glad he didn’t call me another animal.”

Michigan State and Duke faced off on Sunday in what was one of the best games of the weekend. Duke was up for most of the game before MSU came roaring back in the second half.
The Spartans even had the lead late in the second half before the Blue Devils stormed back. Jeremy Roach had the biggest shot of the game when it was 71-70. He drained a three-pointer to put the Blue Devils up by four and they never surrendered the lead again.
Duke will now play Texas Tech in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night as Coach K’s last dance rolls on.
