Excellent read. Thank you for sharing.

Bonus points because I found another story at the sight (http://www.campusrush.com/baylor-bears-silas-nacita-ncaa-1555161192.html) that was also a great read - not Duke related but excellent.

And the article about the young man ineligible at Baylor?

Bad, bad words floating in head about the NCAA. Bunch of preening, overpaid, lazy jerks lording it over young athletes. Loathe them.

You have to wince just thinking about the whirlwind that is Grayson Allen, as a kid, being turned loose on the neighborhood to play sandlot football. I bet even the swimming pool took a beating!:D

kinda like some sportswriter last year saying that when Justise drove the lane on a fast break, he was always worried that someone on the other team was going to get hurt.

I really enjoyed the article. It is neat to have a chance to see some of the person behind the uniform.

Please excuse my generational ignorance, but what is Nickelback?

What a great story about an awesome family, and a life changing friendship. Thanks for sharing this. Grayson is my favorite player on this current team. After reading this, he's creeping up the board of my all-time favorites list.

I thought it was the 5th defensive back. We really are turning into a football school.

It's your change when somethng costs 20 cents and you pay with a quarter. It's also a band from Canada that was popular in the early '00s.

Nickel back is the rare phenomenon when you turn over a nickel and the buffalo is there. Duke has a renewed connection with the buffalo through Bobby Hurley and his former gig.
