In this episode we’re taking you back to April 1991 as we chronicle Duke’s rise to prominence. We’ll be talking about Mike Krzyzewski's humble beginnings in Chicago, his time in the U.S. Army, his first few seasons coaching Duke, and this historic national championship run.

After 4 straight final four appearances and a devastating 30 point loss in the national championship game to UNLV the previous year, Duke was determined to finally win the big one. Christian Laettner and Bobby Hurley were joined by freshman phenom Grant Hill, who helped lead them to an undefeated regular season at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

We also discuss what happened in the world that week, and in our usual segment, we compare the Top 5 college basketball coaches of all-time that aren’t Coach K (at least that’s what the topic was supposed to be).  We also give thanks to Lovie Smith who gave our beloved Bears the greatest gift of the season. #DABEARS Whether you love or hate The Blue Devils, we hope you have a new found respect for the name Krzyzewski, even if you're still unsure of how to spell it.
