Meet Mike Krzyzewski, Retiree
Esquire US|October - November 2022
Even without his whistle, it turns out that the greatest hoops coach of all time still likes to let you know who's in charge
By Brady Langmann
Meet Mike Krzyzewski, Retiree

EXACTLY 142 DAYS AFTER COACH K OFFICIALLY BECAME MR. K FOR the first time in nearly 50 years, Mike Krzyzewski is telling me about his MasterClass. John Legend did one! So did Robin Roberts. The next day, he'll jet off to Vegas, speak at a convention, play video poker, and take his wife, Mickie, out to eat. When Krzyzewski returns to Durham, you'll find the man in his yard, pruning trees and handing out kibbles to his puppy named... wait for it...Coach-who, of fucking course, "is actually a really good athlete." Retirement! It happens. Even for a guy who won 1,202 college basketball games.

"In retirement, although I'm not retired," Krzyzewski, 75, clarifies, "I'm doing all the things I want to do."
