wow go to goduke.com and click on the signing day central link. fantastic break down of all the new guys. lists rankings, honors etc. really think you ought to check out
I wish I could like this 1000x. It’s embarrassing to bring cut back, next year when we string together 1-2 wins let’s see what Kevin says
FYI
if i am figuring this right, as of this moment with the 18 loi's from today and the 2 incoming transfers we have 3 open schollies right now. this is before any redshirt juniors or regular juniors portal or are told to move on. i would love to see Cut use them all this year and fill these spots with lineman.

so damond philyaw johnson wr is taking advantage of the free year and leaving by portal. never panned out for us so hope he gets fresh start where ever he ends up

OVERRATED. Never able to really crack rotation at WR, and highly disappointing as KO Return Specialist this year. DPJ made some noise on basis of two KO returns for TDs in '19 at Wake. This landed him plenty of preseason accolades on various lists THIS SEASON, and dont know if he ever returned one past 30 yard line. No great loss. OFC
Hendon Hooker is transferring from Virginia Tech. I think that he is a fabulous player, and I believe that he will play in the NFL, perhaps as a Tight End. If he played at Duke, the team would be immediately competitive
I’m going to assume he has no interest in coming to Duke. Probably no interest from Duke staff in him coming to Duke.
Probably won't happen. Hooker is incredibly talented. If I were an NFL GM, I would let him know that I would draft him in the 5th round as an 'athlete'. I think that he would be a great Tight End.
just an fyi
so far deon jackson and michael carter II have both declared for the draft. both seniors so good for them.

Good they are going on with their futures or good they are escaping the future coming to our team, or both?
DI I cannot speak for surf, so I will give you my take. Neither of the two may feel they can DEVELOP more at Duke and/or may be tired of all the losing and likely internal issues at Duke.
As far as their readiness for the pros, I just cant see DJ making it. He fumbles too much, and his last two years were alright, but not near as impressive as his earlier years. Jackson wasnt even the best RB on the team this year- it was Mateo Durant.
Michael Carter, hard to say-a lot of upside there, but hes more a wait and see. However I cant blame Carter at this point, we just lost our db's coach, Chris Hampton who was only here one year.

Duke kicker Jack Driggers (kicker)has hit the transfer portal. Jack never really distinguished himself as a kicker for the Blue Devils. He wasnt a first unit guy. I remember he was handling kickoffs one game and had a couple go out of bounds. Thats a definite no-no, giving the opposition good field position. Certainly wish him luck elsewhere, and hope his leg gets stronger. OFC

yeah plus driggers was a senior so he wasnt in the plans for next year anyway. he probably knew duke didnt want him back for the ''free'' year when we got that pwo kicker conner wood a week or two ago
I'm ready to see some guys coming our way through the portal: lots of opportunity to play right away, and get a degree or post grad degree from a prestigious school. C'mon down guys!
DB Marquise Waters headed to Texas Tech to close out his career under former Duke DB Coach Derek Jones. Interesting. Cant help but wonder about possible dissension this year over Duke letting Jones get away last offseason. Chris Hampton only lasted 1 year at Duke, and resigned to head back to Tulane. We have a lot of internal problems. @surfdevil I am sure will have more later-

Duke would be in the top 25 every year if the Administration would put the full court press on Luke Fickell from Cincinnati. He has the coaching ability of Urban Meyer, but he is loved by his players. It would take Krzyzewski money, but it would be a great investment with Krzyzewski results
so the athletic came out with their freshman all-american team and both porter wilson and graham barton made the second team.
FYI i had forgotten this jacob morganstern announced he is returning to texas tech for his free year. started 5 games as a lb for them this year.

surf thx! Ok on Morganstern.... (you said he started 5 games for the Red Raiders this year),was it thought he could return to Duke?thx! OFC
Duke had no players on the ACC first team and only one, Rumph, on the second team. Reflective of where this team actually is compared to the others.
Already talked to some App fans today. They're not thrilled! OFC
As slow as Brice is, I cannot figure out how he could possibly fit into App State's system.
Exactly their sentiments DI.....OFC
DL Derrick Tangelo to transfer portal today. Dominoes continue to fall.....Tangelo in on 40 tackles this year, and well over 100 in his Blue Devil career.SMH.... @surfdevil should have more later..

I want to wish a very Merry Christmas to all diehard Duke Football Fans on this site. Everyone here is passionate about their love of Duke Football. Thats why we have such realistic takes about what happens on and off the field in the program!

Right on, Hart. At this point, all Duke football fans have no choice but to be "diehard".
OFC
Got that right DI!!! May as well keep that transfer portal door propped open! OFC
@surfdevil is really good w/keeping up w/line-ups, depth charts, etc and maybe he can shed some light on how we rebuild the D-line next season.....Got a feeling its going to be a long season yet again...

I hope that Brice reconsiders. Appalachian state is a horrible choice for him. He has enough talent... but he cannot scramble.
