Blow Out City Time! Undefeated at Cameron Indoor Stadium. Let’s see some Foster, Harris, and Hubbard Please!!!
Bring on the tar bums!

He’s earned them. At this point, Foster is completely out of the rotation so he has deserved his minutes even when Brown comes back.
This team is just nasty. Best college team I’ve seen as an adult. When coop gets the NPOY award I’m down to see his jersey retired
Goal #1 Finishing Undefeated at Cameron Indoor Stadium ☑️
Is it okay to say Rachel Baker is a handsome woman?
Hurt or sick hopefully. Because the alternative is behind Borden, Hubbard and Sheffield.
Dominant performance by our guys that sent Wake scurrying to the NIT.

One more year! One more year Coop. Haha.
2 points first 6 minutes...Scored 91 points in remaining 34 minutes. Just wow 😳😳
We win by 33, hahaha
I can tell you his declaring statement now.
"I have really loved my time at Duke. This was a really difficult decision but...."
They can all declare if we win it all.
Sorta what I expected once we settled in. I think they pissed Flagg off with that beat and bang defense. Really impressed with Cooper guarding Sallis he stayed with him. Having that quickness at 6'9 is unreal.
A guy can dream. 1% chance but who knows with NIL.
I'm Mr anti OAD but Cooper should go. Anyone in the lottery should go. The #1 pick cannot compete with NIL. A guy like Evans or Proctor maybe. Guys in the second round are taking a huge gamble, like Keels, Hurt, Duval, Frank Jackson, etc. They are all in the G league.
Actually wrong. He would make more money next year at Duke then the nba
Yeah NIL cannot compare and he’s for sure gone, but it would be awesome if he stayed. Kid for sure loves college and NIL at least helps. I wonder how much he made this year?
He’ll run it back. Foster prob hurt he was into the game on the bench. Body language looked good. We’re dominate.. really really dominate.
The best passing Duke team I’ve seen. What a thing of beauty. They took it to another gear.
I will admit, I got a little nervous when they cut it to 7 to start the half. @christophero though was calm. He lit a cigarette with the one he was smoking.

I suppose we'll find out soon.
I was. This team is really good. The only reason I am not saying we will cut the nets down is that 99 was the biggest disappointment of my sports life. That was brutal. Thank God we won 2 years later. It was also after a time (the mid 90's) when North Carolina was kicking our *** on a regular basis. It's us and Auburn right now.
#1 pick last year signed a 4 year 57 million contract. Even though Coop could make damn good NIL money next year, he’s not making that. NBA will certainly pay out more next year.
After the season ends, business wise it’s a no brainer Flagg, Knueppel, and Maluach should declare for the draft. Their stocks will never be higher.
Proctor and Evans should return for their respective Senior and Sophomore Campaigns.

Damn. It would be worth it. Still think he should go pro. Proctor, Evans, Harris, Brown and Pat back would be huge. That seems optimistic though. Who knows.
Evan’s would benefit so much from a sophomore year. Gain some weight and play along side the boozer twins.
I could see Evans and Proctor testing the waters. I imagine Evans would test well.

I was at the game in Winston, first time going back to Joel since the 1992 game. These aren’t the two teams from that game as one has seriously taken off like an atom bomb.
👏🏻🫵🏻 Undefeated in Cameron. 1st place share and these kids are so dialed in! ❤️🏆 Onward to Chapel Hill..

Agreed Jimbo! Also, I agree with Corey Alexander that a Sophomore Evans could compete for ACC Player of the Year Honors
No matter how great a team and how excited you can be as a fan, until the last buzzer sounds you have to go with the field until proven otherwise. For all the amazing players, legacies and teams at the blue bloods, the NC ratio to seasons played and Final Fours visited is proof positive of how hard it is to get the gold. Sure a few have defied that, UCLA under Wooden, The f!%**G! Huskies in just seven freakin trips. 🙄,( more so than the 6-7 was making it look frustratingly easy the last two years, that’s just not supposed to happen in the Big Dance.) Indiana claimed 5 in 8 trips I believe. But there aren’t many to point to. It may be the toughest thing to win in sports. 🏀
This Duke team has a great shot though thanks to the superb roster construction the staff did. They covered a lot of bases which is why I’ll be shocked if Jon has a better team than this. The stars can’t always line up where you get those bases covered. That Zion team had so much hype, but when do teams who rank among the worst in Division 1 at shooting the three win the title? That was the fatal flaw of that squad that K wasn’t able to cover. If Kennard stayed one more year, that would have been covered. Hence, tough to get every star to line up even when you have some great players.
Unless Foster is hurt or sick, the fact that he never got into the game tells you all you need to know.
