    The Biggest Nat’l Title Game Comeback (Failure).....

    Because at times it is fun to see the delusion that is present in a small minority of the Duke fan base. Those that are happy with the outcome of losing to the Heels in the final four as long as their rivals don’t win the natty. Looking forward to another season of completion. It should be a...

    The Biggest Nat’l Title Game Comeback (Failure).....

    Let me make sure I understand this correctly. You are satisfied with your group of 5 star first round NBA draft picks losing to UNC in the semifinal (as well as the Coach K tribute night) because UNC lost in the NC game that likely was determined to a great extent because of injuries. Perhaps...

    Can we please stop...

    Luke is an athlete that has made the most of his God given talents which are limited in comparison to many others. Is he a Zion? Of course not. But he gives it his all and that should be appreciated by all sports fans. Whether you want his team to win or lose the lesson of being the best you...

    Bagley and Giles

    Giles is the interesting guy here. I think we all assume Bagley will eventually be a star in the league but Henry is the guy I think most out here in Sacramento are watching. Remember, he has not played a single game since his limited action at Duke. He basically took a vacation last year as...

    Gary Trent headed to the NBA

    I wish Trent well and hope to see him play at the next level. He certainly has the talent but it may take him a bit to Make any sort of impact. I would have suggested for him to stay at Duke for at least another year (as I do for almost all undergrades - Bagley the obvious exception as he was...

    UK fans all excited Cal recruiting Knox to returm

    As much as I lov As much as Meeks contributed to winning the NC (his rebounding was critical) I hate to admit it but he couldn't hit the backboard from the foul line. Knox is a pretty good outside threat which will help him next year whether that is at Kentucky or in the G-league.

    UK fans all excited Cal recruiting Knox to returm

    I wish he did come back. I also wish Trent and Carter would come back for Duke. I have been consistent for many years that I think all these guys should come back unless they are so obviously ready to be a star at the next level. (Bagley is clearly in that catagory. He was ready to play in...

    Draft Deadline

    I really wish for the college game of basketball that most all of the players come back. I have been consistent for years wanting both Duke's players as well as UNC players coming back for additional years. Bagley is a different story. He could have started for most NBA teams right out of...

    Your Final Four Predictions?

    Just like Dukiejay, I’ll probably take some heat back home when I say Duke has a very good chance to cut down the nets this year. I have them and Villanova in the NC game. Your zone will be tougher to break then most think. UNC saw it 3 times as well as an inferior copy with Cuse a few times...

    How did UNC move up to being the top number 2 seed?

    I like how we all come together at this time of year. :) The winner of this tournament needs to be good and lucky, just like every year. Many of the match ups we anticipate at this moment will never come to exist as upsets occur every tournament. The fact that both Duke and UNC are good works...

    The inevitable question per Bagley....

    If Duke passes the ball inside to any of the big men on a consistent basis we are toast. Manly is improving but has miles to go to compete with your bigs. If GA is on from the 3 point area we are toast. Lots of toast to eat on Duke's senior night, I would be very surprised if we stay close so I...

    NC State

    My take is that the UNC-State rivalry is much stronger for the older generation who can remember David Thompson, Towe, and Burleson, etc. Remember during those times Duke was not an elite team. With the younger group it is obviously the recent history of Duke and the fact they always seem to...

    Kevin Knox

    Bagley looks unstoppable at the college level. He is one fierce competitor with great hand and footwork. Really looks to be able to play at the next level right now. I really have been impressed with him and wonder if “hack a bag” may be the only way to slow him down. I wondered why Texas let...

    Maybe I'm nuts but I do believe the NBA draft is rigged.

    Well, since the playoffs are rigged (who remembers the playoff game Sacramento vs. LA 2002 game 6) why would the draft be any different? Money talks.
