In the second game, of course, it will be Duke and Houston.
00:04
Here is John Shire, of course, taking over for the great Coach K.
00:08
First time he is bringing Duke to the Final Four as the head man.
00:12
Here he is.
00:12
Well, it's it's it's special.
00:14
You know, you feel a great deal of responsibility,
00:18
you know, to be the head coach at Duke and
00:21
you want for your players to be able to experience this.
00:25
And so walking out there today for practice,
00:28
I was just soaking it in like I was when I was twenty two years old,
00:30
walking out for the first time.
00:32
You know, it's the Final Four is is a once in a lifetime kind of thing.
00:37
And to be a part of this being my my fourth Final Four,
00:41
obviously first as a head coach.
00:43
But if you're around great people, you're at a great place.
00:48
It's something I'll never take for granted.
00:50
But at the same time, I feel we belong here.
00:52
You know, I feel this is what we've worked for.
00:54
And so there's that that combination of amazing pride,
00:58
wanting to soak it in, but then the incredible hunger
01:02
and understanding what a challenge, you know, this game is going to be on Saturday.
01:05
So for me, it's that combination.
01:08
I think it'll be a challenge as well.
01:10
But look, I thought their games that they
01:14
struggled in were on the road, like in Little John, whatever.
01:17
This is a neutral court, so it could be a struggle against Houston.
01:22
I don't know if I believe Houston can shoot for 40 minutes
01:27
against that defense and have a high percentage.
01:31
I really don't. I look what they did to Alabama.
01:34
That's all I need to see is what they do to teams.
01:37
It doesn't matter where the game is.
01:39
They just affect your shots, your everything about it, your space.
01:44
You have no space.
01:47
Getting open looks against Duke is nearly impossible.
01:49
So I'm not surprised they're back.
01:52
I think they're the best college basketball program in the country.
