Mike Krzyzewski weirdly entered his retirement press conference to 'Everytime We Touch' ... and here's why
It actually makes sense!
You may have seen the video of the beginning of Mike Krzyzewski’s press conference on Thursday to announce 2021-22 was his final season coaching Duke and wondered: why is a legend like him walking into a big moment to the tunes of Cascada’s Everytime We Touch??
Yeah, it was a little weird and awkward with some people in the audience clapping. But it actually made all the sense in the world.
As our Andrew Joseph wrote back in 2017, the playing of Everytime We Touch at Cameron Indoor Stadium before hoops games became a thing way back in 2006. So it’s the perfect Cameron Crazy anthem to play before Coach K took to the mic:

Was it a little awkward? Maybe. But it made sense!
