Coach Krzyzewski's take on the new NCAA basketball environment

[jimb]

Krzyzewski puts it this way: Coaches of his generation, at least those still going — the Jim Boeheims and Tom Izzos of the world — are focused on how things were in the past, while trying to adapt to the current environment.

Theyre trying to make it and earn a living. JB and Izzo arent really doing it for the money anymore.

What rules? There’s nothing specific on the books
