SiriusXM inks a multi-year agreement with Hall of Fame basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski to continue hosting his weekly SiriusXM show, "Basketball and Beyond with Coach K. Krzyzewski." His retirement after last season marked the end of a legendary coaching career, and he began hosting the show in 2005. The premiere episode of the show's 18th season will air November 3.

Each Thursday at 6 pm ET, Krzyzewski will host a new edition of Basketball and Beyond with Coach K every week throughout college basketball season, as well as multiple offseason episodes of the show.

On the show Coach K and co-host Dave Sims discuss the current events happening in basketball as well as the headline stories from the larger sports world, and Krzyzewski leads one-on-one interviews with accomplished guests from different walks of life, from champion coaches and players to leaders of government and business.

"This will be the first fall in nearly 50 years that I'm not on the sidelines, and I'm so pleased to extend my long relationship with SiriusXM and continue hosting Basketball and Beyond," said Krzyzewski. "Having the creative freedom to do a really unique show has been incredibly important and rewarding to me. I can be a part of the national conversation on basketball, while also exploring interesting topics with a variety of guests who make an impact far beyond the basketball court."

"Since season one, Coach has brought our listeners an engaging, truly one-of-a-kind show each and every week," added SiriusXM President and Chief Content Officer Scott Greenstein. "Not only does Mike's passion for the game come through in his own commentary, but the preparation and genuine curiosity that he brings to the interviews he does with his guests produce some extraordinary and enlightening conversations. It is an honor to have him as a SiriusXM host and we couldn't be more pleased to be extending our relationship with him and delivering his show to our listeners in the years ahead."
