    Lady Devils!

    Indeed. I admit that with the poor start, I told my wife that it could be a very bad day for Duke basketball. Instead, with the big comeback and our dismantling of JMU by the men, it’s the best day for Duke basketball all year! Way to go Lady Devils!

    Official games day thread- Duke vs Vermont- NCAA tournament

    BTW, did anyone see Jay Wright’s comments yesterday? Basically said that, with the transfer portal and NIL, the days of taking freshmen-dominated teams far in this tourney are over. Hurley said the same thing in an interview. Words worth keeping in mind when we start our predictions about...

    Official games day thread- Duke vs Vermont- NCAA tournament

    I’m hoping for the best, but prepared for the worst. I’m certainly glad we avoided the upset, but we still look chaotic out there. Very mechanical in our offensive sets in particular. I don’t know if it’s a general attitude thing, or that not playing our bench is taking its toll, but they...

    And probably true of Roach as well!

    I can’t speak for St. John’s, but UConn’s roster is hardly old by today’s standards. Newton is 23, Karaban is 21, Castle and Stewart are 19, Diarra is 23 (as of tomorrow), Clingan is 20, and Johnson is 21.

    Did anybody watch the UConn/St John’s game? Pitino and Hurley are both ball busters on their players. But they get results.

    Official game day thread- Duke vs State- ACC tourney

    I respectively disagree. As my wife astutely noted, a team tends to pick up the identity of its coach. Danny Hurley and UConn is Exhibit A. Is he a brash guy? Yes, by his own admission. But he’s as tough as nails, and his team reflects that. Lots of swagger, lots of confidence, and when he...

    Official game day thread- Duke vs State- ACC tourney

    Duhon, I don’t think having all Duke guys as coaches is the issue - Jon’s the head coach, and it starts with him. But i agree with the rest of your post. I’m just at a loss to understand how we can come out so flat. Especially coming right after the Carolina game. Flip and Mitchell showed...

    Honestly, this season I thought McCain emerged as the leader.

    Official gameday thread- Duke vs UNC v2

    No, sadly I have seen this too many times. One week we’re worried about someone going pro because he hit 3 straight shots in a game and the next week he’s yesterday’s dirty laundry because he missed an defensive assignment and shouldn’t be playing for us.

    Wow. One unquestionably bad loss and we start eating our own.

    I think Foster is our PG. But Flagg can handle the ball pretty well - as I said above, he’s the closest thing to Grant Hill we’ve had.

    From what I’ve seen, Cooper can play anywhere he wants. He may be the closest player we’ve had to Grant Hill.

    We certainly should be. This is arguably our best recruiting class ever! Cooper Flagg has to particularly happy - no way anyone can double team him now.

    Stewart could be this team’s freshman Grayson Allen.
