I know there are already multiple active football threads on the first page, but I absolutely had to start another one after reading Al Featherston's preview because it is quality journalism that deserves to standout:
http://www.dukebasketballreport.com/articles/?p=48166
After providing an optimistic outlook, Mr. Featherston provides fans three reasons for pessimism in 2013.
Are there tangible reasons to be pessimistic? I can suggest a few:
– The transition from Renfree to Boone at quarterback.
– The youth of the secondary.
– Does Duke have the linebackers to be effective defensively?
He then proceeds to refute all three reasons leaving the reader more optimistic than he/she was after reading the optimistic section of the preview.
Another great Al Featherston article well worth the read so I encourage everyone to read it, link it, discuss it and live it. It's a little less than 70 hours to kick-off according to my clock.
