Even Andy Blagwell, who wrote this, admitted that his research revealed Coach K's black hair as natural.

>N&O: So does Coach K dye his hair?

>AB: Honestly – you know what? I don’t think he does. And that was one of the most stunning things that came out of writing the book for me. I was convinced that a man that’s over 60 years old could not have jet-black hair. But the person that we talked to, who had written a book on hair coloring, looked at hundreds of photos of him. And his verdict was, you know, I don’t think he does. Also – the other big thing that kind of lends into it is his Polish descent – so apparently that’s a hereditary trait within people of Polish descent, that some of them don’t go gray at all. And there was some other evidence in there. But that was honestly stunning to me. And we reluctantly admitted in the book that we are now convinced he does not dye his hair.

No, he's pretty much an asshole once you get outside of the media's narrative.

Deadspin from 2014

Other noteable things: Yelling at student reporters for not grading his team better.

When he quit on his team in 1995 for being bad, and not wanting to stain his own record.

When William Avery decided he was going to leave a year early, K yelling at his mother, "Your son is going to fuck my program."

There's a bunch in the book, Duke Sucks if you're interested.

Coming from YOU guys? You're like the inventors of the whole system. There's literally a published book outlining the reasons why Duke sucks :P

Jokes aside, I didn't even choose this PSN back when the PS3 came out. You'd have to argue with my brother on why UNC cheats, cause I don't care nearly as much about it.

I'm sure I'll get downvoted, but knowing the history of Duke the way I do.. it's kind of stupid to say it's undeserved.

Maybe from an outsider who hasn't watched much college basketball I could see your perspective, but if you know the last 100 years of the sport - there is a reason people dislike Duke.

I mean, they wouldn't be making a documentary about Laettner called "I Hate Christian Laettner" for a reason. He stepped on people for fucks sake.

And when their own players say they get special treatment - it's not just a pie in the sky.

Winslow kicked one of our players in the gut and then tried to trip another one. It's documented on tape. He also tried to trip a Virgina player. He's a dirty player.

I won't go into Rasheed's legal troubles, but he also used to steal the ball in the last 30 seconds of a game and dunk on people. That happened a couple times this year.

Duke fans have to accept that they are Duke fans and people don't like them. Ignoring their arrogance is just ignorant of basketball history. Hell, their are popular [selling books on the subject] (http://www.amazon.com/Duke-Sucks-Completely-Evenhanded-Investigation/dp/1250004632). You couldn't just make a bunch of salty shit up and put it in a book and have people buy it.

Having said all that there are some nice Duke fans. My car Mechanic is a Duke fan and I tell him, "I'll give you my money anyway I guess." And we laugh. Not all the fans are little shits, but some are.
