Debate: Court Storming

So as most of you have probably heard, Coach K was complaining last night after Duke lost to Virginia about the court storming because he couldn't get his team off the floor safely. As much as I dislike Duke basketball, I'm going to have to agree with Coach K here that we should not stop court stormings but something definitely should be done to keep the safety of the losing team who is trying to leave the court. There is a serious danger there because you have thousands of crazy, most likely drunk, and adrenaline filled college students running at you full speed. And in Duke's case last night it was students that necessarily don't like Duke so things can get ugly. I'm not sure what you can do to prevent this as 5 players are guaranteed to be on the court when they storm but I think something should be changed. But I repeat please don't take away court storming in general because it is something that makes college basketball awesome.

P.S. Typical Duke that they are the ones whining about it? I'm sorry I had to Go Heels
