Anyone else catch this?

He was arguing with an official and fell face first to the floor.

He didn't leave the game, and remained on the bench. No word as to what caused it.

I saw that. It was scary. I'm surprised they let him stay on the court.

Krzyzewski's wife, Mickie, ran from her seat in the upper deck to the end of the bench, and Duke athletic director Joe Alleva came, too. But the 57-year-old coach was up and back in front of his players to complete the timeout.

When referee Reginald Cofer went to check on him, Krzyzewski took the opportunity to complain about the officiating, and Cofer walked away smiling.

Coack K's reasoning behind his collapse in the press conference was pretty funny, some crazy babbling about not being able to get a base when he stood up and something or other...

His team is so bad he fainted when the realization hit him. They might want to keep a nurse on the bench from now on.

He was thinking about Weds game vs the Heels :D

All joking aside, I hope he is ok. They said on the news he said he got light headed. I do hope he is ok

Thats bad in perspective....:D

They are not the duke teams of old that scare teams to death and make them quit prior to the game.

ahhhhhh you know plenty of jokes are going to be coming out about this, and there aint nothing we can do to stop those unc fans from making em(carmike has first dibs).

its good to hear he's ok. it would be weird for me to see somebody else roaming the sidelines on duke's side.

Then i get first dibs on the person who's dumb enough to make light of a coach collapsing during a game. Duke fan or not, i can't say i think it's something to joke about.

Must not have been too bad.

On a side note, I did hear that his back has been hurting too. Where's Pete Gaudett when you need him?....

I am glad coach K is alright and I would never make a comment about someone unless I knew they were ok, even coach K was laughing about it later so he is fine
