In Part 2 of our conversation with Brian Zoubek, we dive into his epic senior season at Duke, including the 82-50 blowout of North Carolina on senior night, and the incredible run Duke had in the 2010 NCAA Tournament. We ask Brian what it was like heading to the line to seal the title, what it was like winning it all, and how he ultimately decided to leave basketball and pursue a highly successful career in business.
