Cam'ron had some words for former Duke men's basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski after he ignored the rapper when trying to spark a conversation.
On Monday's episode of It Is What It Is, Cam and Mase were about to wrap up the show when Krzyzewski walked by the studio. The Harlem native was excited to see the legendary coach and left the studio to ask him for a picture.
Mase and Stat Baby were rolling in laughter before Killa Cam returned and revealed Coach K had given him the cold shoulder. Cam felt so offended by Krzyzewski curving him that he went on a rant and claimed the Hall of Fame coach compensated his players with money before the NIL was even a thing.
"We need to do an investigation on Coach K behind that shit," said Cam alleges. "We do a It Is What It Is investigation n***a. All them banks you got in North Carolina I know what's going on. Nah fuck that, now I'm going to expose Coach K."
He continued, "N***a, you think you got Zion for free before the NIL? Google the shit real quick. How many banks do Coach K own? You gonna walk off on me Coach K? Coach K own mad banks in North Carolina, and he been funneling n***as money for years. I don't give a fuck. Coach K got mad banks in North Carolina, Zion to Grant Hill to everybody he been putting through his banks so it looks legitimate. He been paying n***as for years before the NIL."
Cam alleges that he knows the stories that have been circulating about Coach K giving his players money and once again claimed there needs to be an It Is What It Is investigation on the matter.
Before NIL deals came into the picture, college athletes could not receive impermissible benefits or payments as it was a violation of NCAA rules. If a team is caught participating in the act, punishments include sanctions, fines, and even vacating wins. However, the implementation of NIL deals in 2021 allowed college athletes to earn a profit through endorsements, sponsorships, and other deals using their name, image, and likeness.
