When asked on the ACC Teleconference if he was aware of the allegations against Sulaimon, Krzyzewski said, "I don't have any comment about that." Krzyzewski repeated that when asked if he felt he handled Sulaimon's dismissal appropriately.

The Chronicle, the Duke student newspaper, published a story Monday alleging that two allegations of sexual assault were made publicly against Sulaimon during the 2013-14 school year. According to The Chronicle, no official complaints were filed with the Office of Student Conduct or any law enforcement agency.

Sulaimon was dismissed from the team on Jan. 29 for failing to "consistently live up to the standards required to be a member of our program," according to a statement by Krzyzewski in a press release.

Duke University spokesman Michael Schoenfeld released a statement as well.

"Duke is prohibited by law from disclosing publicly any particular student's confidential education records," Schoenfeld wrote. "The university takes immediate action when it receives reports of alleged sexual misconduct or other violations of the student conduct code, which includes investigation and referral to the Student Conduct Office for review in a timely manner as required by law. Duke also takes every possible action internally to ensure anyone who raises a complaint of sexual misconduct is supported and the campus community is safe."

Efforts to reach Sulaimon for comment were unsuccessful.
