Coach K Wasn’t Thrilled With Dan Patrick’s Line Of Questioning Regarding Grayson Allen

Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski appeared on The Dan Patrick Show this morning.

It was a previously scheduled appearance, so neither party foresaw Grayson Allen's latest tripping episode and subsequent suspension being a topic. But of course, it had to be.

The interview was cordial enough, but things did get a bit testy when Patrick asked "How does he [Allen] explain the tripping?"

Here's a quick transcript:

"Well, how do you explain any mistake you make?" Krzyzewski responded.

"But it is three times though," Patrick countered.

"But tell me that you haven't made a mistake more than three times?" Krzyzewski said. "I mean, come on Dan. You've been doing this a long time. These are human things. Human beings do human things."

"But I'm just understanding, it's three times," Patrick continued. "We all make mistakes..."

"Well, you're being naive about this then, about anything," Krzyzewski offered back. "You mean somebody doesn't make mistakes more than three times? That doesn't mean it's right. He was wrong each time. But how does anything happen Dan? How does anything happen?

The exchange continued for a bit, and while neither person got particularly nasty, they didn't actually resolve anything or understand each other much better either.

You can listen to the full back-and-forth below. Things pick up around the 1:00 mark.

There is even more of Krzyzewski's session with Patrick in the video below.

Allen is suspended indefinitely until further notice. The Blue Devils don't play again until Dec. 31, when they travel to Virginia Tech to open ACC play.
