Evan makes the subjective argument that Coach K is the second greatest coach all-time to John Wooden, and explains why citing his wins, NCAA titles, Olympic Gold Medals, players he's sent to the NBA, McDonald's All Americans he coached, and more. Jay Bilas joins the show (7:15) for a discussion sharing his opinion on multiple issues around Coach K, including his opinion of lists and rankings in general, if there is a higher "plane" coach in the Hall of Fame. Jay feels once you're there, you're there while Evan feels there are metrics that separate Hall of Famers such for example Coach K (five titles) and Jim Boeheim (one title). Jay says Evan sounds like he's "poo pooing" other coaches, and doesn't think stats even championships tell the whole story. What Jay and Evan agree on is that Coach K is a rare find, and as Jay discusses he coaches the person, not just the player. Evan and Jay discuss Coach K's relationship with his former Coach Bobby Knight, how close Kobe Bryant truly ever came to attending Duke, and his boatload of accomplishments, with the biggest one being a great person. A real deep dive in this episode of "The Issues of Sports" into Hall of Fame now retired Duke Head Coach Mike Krzyzewski.
