1. Ah

Now I can be a little less pissed off. Thank you. At least Duke went down to a team with a coach who gives money to Democrats.

3. I tried desperately to find Coach K listings...

..but couldn't find squat.

I'm no UCONN fan, but I have to say, what Calhoun has done up there over the past dozen years is pretty incredible. They were nowhere on the map prior to his tenure.

Do you have any idea what K's politics are?

7. Coach K is a republican, in fact, was under controversy last year

for an Elizabeth Dole fundraiser- Blue Devils for Dole: http://newsobserver.com/news/story/1762377p-1772578c.html

8. good info...but apparently he did not donate

I find nothing under 'Krzyzewski' going back to 1993.

A lot of times these guys donate using their wives' names, but he hasn't even done that.

2. Yea, he lives up in NE CT

He is a BIG Democrat.

5. In his book

Calhoun says he's a lifelong Dem.

Another reason to root for them!

6. Looks like I'm pulling for UConn

I've always liked Connecticut, and this confirms all my good feelings about the school.
