    Watching carolina Go To HELL!

    Frank Jackson out?

    He's not warming up. He's standing on the end line watching, along with Grayson and Obi. What's wrong with him now????

    Frank and Grayson will not play today, according to Coach K on pregame radio.

    No word on what is ailing Frank.

    This just means that Luke gets to break Ferry's single game scoring record today...

    No big deal. Just an unidentifiable lower body injury. 😬
    “Those two kids, they’re champions,” Krzyzewski said of his senior leaders. “They’re trying to teach the other kids how to become that, and it’s a long road to become that.”

    Can someone explain why the staff is so protective about injury information?

    Don't worry. It makes sense to give Grayson and Frank a break with a big game coming right up. I doubt if there is anything serious at all here.

    'Cause K went to the USMA - where they teach mis/disinformation as a strategy. Go figure!

    Coach K grew up before the dawn of digital social media, he didn't learn that is important to take and post selfies of every paper cut and bruise.

    Thank God for that.

    Let's think about this for a bit. Two starters are out. Two players, who were predicted as starters, are playing in their place. We are not playing a major opponent. The guys are out have been playing major minutes previously. Might they not need a rest.

    I didn't see it covered here, but in the post game K said that Frank has "a little bit of a sore foot" and they hope he'll be back for Tuesday.

    It is the shoes. I am old but there are certain shoes that hurt my feet. I have tried Asics for running and they are different from New Balance. I wonder how many kids went from Nike to Adidas this year.

    Heal Frank, heal! But surely these players all have custom orthotics, etc.

    Moreover, if need be, Nike would figure out hos to sew a swoosh over a competitor's logo.

    Golf clubs for the leading pros appear to be all custom-built, but retaining the signature features of appearance -- such as "all-white" for Taylor Made. It ain't NASCAR "stock cars," but you get the idea.

    Most certainly. There are probably 2-3 Nike reps for Duke alone working with players / staff to ensure the best fit.

    Yea, I'm pretty sure Duke doesn't get these off the rack. Duke basketball employs a veritable army of nutritionists, trainers, sports psychologists, at. al.

    I believe Clarabell is on retainer.

    I assume they're on top of the shoe situation.
