#6 He wanted to get a closer look at that UNC fan in the crowd

He needed a reason to get a closer look at the Tar Heel fan that keeps showing up in the student section so he could have a couple of the lady Blue Devils take care of her after the game.

#7 The Crazies had never invited him to sit with them

Wouldn’t you be hurt if you had given 40 years of your life to a program and all they ever do is ask your opponent to come have a seat with them?

#8 He was furious that there was an available seat in the student section

With some on social media pointing out the empty seats at Cameron Indoor Stadium it was the final straw when Coach K realized there was enough empty space for an opposing coach to sit with the students.

BONUS: He’s the GOAT

When you have almost 1,100 wins you are entitled to the occasional unexplained outburst to protect one of your guys. We love you Coach K and we hope you never lose that passion and fire.
