Hall of Fame basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski is back for this 20th season of his SiriusXM show, Basketball and Beyond with Coach K. The season debut episode airs tonight and the featured guest will be new Arkansas head men’s basketball coach John Calipari.
Like Coach K, Coach Calipari is a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame, and he is one of the sport’s leading voices as president of the National Association of Basketball Coaches Board of Directors this season. Between the two coaches they have won six National Championships, five of those belonging to Krzyzewski.
Coach K’s show airs Thursdays at 6 p.m. ET throughout college basketball season on SiriusXM College Sports Radio and SiriusXM ACC Radio. Episodes are also available for subscribers via the SiriusXM app.
“We are excited to start season 20,” said Krzyzewski in a release. “We have tried so hard to provide our listeners with thoughtful, entertaining and guest-driven programming. Now more than ever, we will delve even deeper into some of the most relevant issues facing sports – and beyond. SiriusXM is such a terrific platform with amazing reach. Certainly, we’re proud of the longevity of the show and are aiming to make year 20 our best season yet!”
“It is truly an honor to have Coach as a part of our SiriusXM family for these 20 years,” said Scott Greenstein, SiriusXM’s President and Chief Content Officer. “The knowledge and the insights shared by Coach and his guests, not only of sports but into leadership and principles for success in any field, are exceptional. There’s not another show like his anywhere else in audio and we are so thrilled to have him speaking to our listeners every week.”
