Was Stephen Miller a Duke Basketball Fan?

[Henderson]

Duke graduate Stephen Miller is now a senior White House advisor. Was he a Duke basketball fan?

Please don't go inappropriately political. This is a basketball question.

Thanks.

I remember the work he did in defense of the falsely accused Lacrosse players. I'd assume he's a Duke sports fan.

That said, I'm not personally a fan of his more recent work . . .

Agreed . . . it's a thread for a yes or no question that can't go any direction but political.

Well, we spent a lot of time on Reggie Love in the last administration!

Given how political the Lacrosse story got, I'm not sure anyone's stance on it says anything about their sports allegiances.

It doesn't have to go political. I think DBR members are capable of focusing on sports. I made that pitch in opening the thread. If people find themselves unable to control themselves, they shouldn't post. But you guys know how to behave yourselves, don't you?

I'm curious about a prominent Duke alum and his connection to Duke basketball. That's 100% on point here.

[davekay1971]

Well, we spent a lot of time on Reggie Love in the last administration!

To be fair, Reggie Love was a prominent member of the Duke Basketball program. However, I agree with your overall point that fairness on DBR should allow for a non-PPB thread about a member of the Duke family in a prominent position in the White House regardless of which party is currently running the Executive Branch. I would assume those who disagree with the current POTUS can remain civil about Mr Miller.

I don't doubt your intent at all. Just given Miller's most recent public comments, he's become a lightning rod for political opinions, so I'm not sure how any in depth discussion about him can avoid it.

[Bluedog]

Based on what little I knew about him while on campus at the same time, he was not a sports guy. Just a politics guy.

[Henderson]

I don't doubt your intent at all. Just given Miller's most recent public comments, he's become a lightning rod for political opinions, so I'm not sure how any in depth discussion about him can avoid it.

So avoid the politics. It was a simple non-political question I posed. If you don't know the answer, no need to post at all.

[flyingdutchdevil]

No, he really didn't care about Duke basketball.

That's all I'm going to say on this subject.

[CDu]

Just curious: how is this an interesting question to you? If the answer is "yes", what does that mean to you? If the answer is "no", what does that mean? Stephen Miller isn't involved in Duke basketball (or basketball in general) in any way. So why do you care if he was or is a Duke basketball fan? And why would that be a basketball question?

Just seems weird.

It's entirely a separate point when talking about Reggie Love on a Duke basketball message board, since he was in fact a Duke basketball (and football) player.

It's simple curiosity. It's like asking whether Charlie Rose or Tim Cook was a Duke basketball fan.

Do you have anything to share on that point, or are you trying to make this political? If the latter, the problem is not with the thread.

[Edouble]

Perhaps, if Mr. Miller is not interested in Duke basketball, the POTUS can enlighten him.

Trump, for those who might remember, took in the Duke-UNC game in Cameron, back in 2004. I recall him saying that he really liked Luol's game, something to the effect of "that #2 is really good around the basket."

[CDu]

It's simple curiosity. It's like asking whether Charlie Rose or Tim Cook was a Duke basketball fan.

What in my post led you to believe that I was trying to make this political? I was legitimately trying to figure out why someone would find this interesting. You are the one who has (multiple times now) brought up politics.

Because different people find different questions to be interesting. For example, let's say Hendo really hates Miller's politics. He might find it somewhat interesting to know whether this person he dislikes so much had shared the same experience as a Cameron Crazy or the same interest in Duke basketball. Maybe they even stood next to each other in the bleachers at some point.

Based on this, Hendo came here and asked the question. And, not surprisingly, he found his answers:


Based on what little I knew about him while on campus at the same time, he was not a sports guy. Just a politics guy.


No, he really didn't care about Duke basketball.

That's all I'm going to say on this subject.

And now that Hendo has his answers, the thread could be locked.

Incidentally, a disinterest in sports is exactly what I would've predicted. People who are very political/ideological tend to spend the bulk of their time thinking about politics and ideology. They would actually sneer at us sports fans usually. "Hey, enjoy watching your sportsball." In this case, "bounceball."

[dukebluesincebirth]

After a few minutes of quick Google researching, I see no link between Mr. Miller and Duke bball other than attending Duke Univ. Every article is related to politics, no mention of attending games, etc. So i'm going to go with NO.

[BLPOG]

People who are very political/ideological tend to spend the bulk of their time thinking about politics and ideology. They would actually sneer at us sports fans usually. "Hey, enjoy watching your sportsball." In this case, "bounceball."

I don't think that's accurate at all and I would shocked if you could provide data to substantiate it.


And now that Hendo has his answers, the thread could be locked.

That, on the other hand, is certainly accurate.

Presidents Nixon, Clinton and Obama were all big sports fans.

If this was intended to be a basketball thread, why ask a question about an overtly political figure? People of all backgrounds love Duke Basketball. The previous administration featured former Duke player and overall badass Reggie Love. Generals, CEOs, common folks, everyone loves Duke Basketball. We're the first college basketball team with over 1 million followers on twitter and perennially ranked among the most popular teams in the country. Other teams and entire networks can't stop talking about us. Duke Basketball: Bringing the people together.

[Henderson]

And now that Hendo has his answers, the thread could be locked.


Um, after just two anecdotal responses, you want to lock down a question about the interest in Duke basketball of a prominent Duke alum? Really.

[Troublemaker]

I don't think that's accurate at all and I would shocked if you could provide data to substantiate it.

I would be shocked if that data were available. Obviously, I can't prove it. Just my own personal observations over many years.

I didn't say politicians generally aren't big sports fans. I said people who are very political or ideological. Getting into the difference would lead us down the PPB road.

[CDu]

Um, after just two anecdotal responses, you want to lock down a question about the interest in Duke basketball of a prominent Duke alum? Really.

I mean, what are you expecting? A girl/guy who was in his dorm has said Miller wasn't a Duke bball fan. What else is there to discuss on the topic?

Are you expecting his best friend to be on the board? Him? The best answer you are possibly going to get to your question is going to be anecdotal.

And if all you really are interested in is whether or not he is a Duke basketball fan, that anecdotal response would seem to fulfill the discussion. No?

I'm personally fine with leaving the thread open. Just not sure what further brilliant insight you are going to get beyond what has already been said.

[Henderson]

If this was intended to be a basketball thread, why ask a question about an overtly political figure?

It's not my fault there's a Duke alum involved in politics. He's in the news. I'm curious whether he's a basketball fan. That's it. If you don't know... then....

I'm being facetious. I don't get offended by being called a girl.

[Henderson]

I wouldn't mind hearing from a mod along the lines of "The poster asked a non-political question about a Duke alum's interest in basketball. If you don't have anything to add, don't post."

[IrishDevil]

No, he really didn't care about Duke basketball.

That's all I'm going to say on this subject.

Also knew Miller from freshman dorm, etc., and I second FDD - no interest in Duke basketball.

[CDu]

Like I said, I'm perfectly fine with the thread staying open (I'm generally opposed to locking threads except in extreme cases). I just don't think you're going to get a more definitive answer than the ones you have already gotten.

But, feel free to hope for a more close contact than flyingdutchdevil on this board.

But is that true? US presidents have a long history and strong sports enthusiasm (and participation). Obama was a basketball but, Nixon loved football, the Bushes were baseball and football guys, Ford, of course, played at Michigan, etc... And Reggie Love, obviously, played at Duke and talked enthusiastically about his admiration for Obama as a man, and for his politics. I think there are plenty of "politics nerds" in Washington, but also plenty of folks for whom politics and sports are equal passions!

Apropos to that, a lot of politicians like to SAY they're fans of the local teams while not knowing jack squat about them. There was an epically funny clip of Prez Nixon praising "that passer" from Texas, truly great stuff.

The play he drew up for the Redskins to run lost a handful of yards the one time it was tried.

Nixon, famously for us, was at the Duke-Arizona basketball game in the Meadowlands when Laettner missed a key free throw at the end that could have won the game. Nixon went to the Duke locker and told him -- "Don't worry son. I've blown the big one too" (Or something like that).

Jimmy Carter is a fixture at Braves games. And was a huge Allman Brothers fan -- but that's another story.

Woodrow Wilson, I hear, did not like sports.

There are many, many regular posters to this Board who are both "very political/ideological" and huge sports fans. The former PPB and the 2016 election thread on the OTB testify to that.

I think it was the Republican Debate with Romney and somebody else a while back when asked "what would you be doing tonight if you weren't here?" The answer: "Watching college football and the great thing that's going on" or something along those lines. His opponent then agreed with that -- that he'd be watching football. What month was it? March. ;)

Woodrow Wilson, I hear, did not like sports.

Woodrow Wilson was a sports fan. He played baseball (second base) and helped form the "Lightfoot Baseball Club" as a kid, which apparently gave rise to his interest in politics:

While living in the house, Wilson formed the Lightfoot Baseball Club with friends and served as its president. He wrote a constitution and bylaws and conducted the meetings according to Parliamentary Procedure in the carriage house. This started his lifelong fascination with governing and political science, culminating in the U.S. Presidency and formation of the League of Nations.

I disagree with this point. I work in politics and find that, disproportionately compared to other aspects of my life, there are a lot of passionate sports fans. Leaving aside ideology for the moment, politics has a lot of zero-sum wins and losses, just like sports. Passion in politics also requires a level a detailed knowledge that also manifests itself among rabid sports fans. Plus, both are very, very competitive.

And I know a lot of people in politics whose primary distraction from the very intense, very long hours they work is watching Sports Center, reading box scores, and making time to watch games.

So, YMMV, but this is my experience.

I wasn't going to comment, but I figured I would. I am trying to be 100% objective here. It's not easy.

-No fraternity, no living group
-He wasn't a loner, but he didn't have many friends. He wasn't awkward but rather didn't engage unless you engaged with him first
-He is a friendly guy when you converse with him
-His ideology was very apparent during his freshman to senior years
-He was (is) fantastic at debating
-I had plenty of friends who were part of Republican club(s). They would distance themselves from Stephen because his ideology was often too right from their own

SIDE NOTE: One thing I loved about Duke - and I wonder if this is still the case - is how apolitical it was compared to over top-notch schools. Democrat and Republican clubs existed, but they weren't powerful nor highly attended. Students didn't make friendships because of ideology. As a matter of fact, more people (like myself) bonded due to our dislike for politics. That has changed as I've gotten older, but I thought it was a great thing about attending Duke.

Wait! You can't drop that bomb and go! So-called person?!?! What are you saying? Is he a space alien? Or a robot? Blade Runner was set in 2017 wasn't it? (Props to me if I nailed that, btw, because I am going from memory, not checking the web). Is he a replicant? Would he pass the Voit Comp? Or would he pull a Leon and end the test Leon style? Was he a human at Duke, then killed and replaced by a robot?

This thread just got much more interesting. And, btw, if he was a robot at Duke, I'd have preferred him to be built to run a 3.8 40, strong enough to plow down defensive linemen, and put on the football team.

Addendum: crap. Blade Runner was set in 2019.

Was in New Hampshire during the NFL playoffs and the weekend before the CFB championship game.

Ted Cruz was worse in Indiana in 2016. IN was his last stand and he tried to recreate a scene from Hoosiers. Elaborate stagecraft with a flunkie measuring the height of the rim in a high school gym. Cruz gagged on the money line and called it a basketball "ring".

Never a good idea to blatantly pander, but especially bad when you let your intended audience know you're clueless.
