    Duke Men’s Soccer 2024

    Usually I saw hesitation when a Duke player was receiving a pass and deciding what to do next (pass, dribble, or even shoot). (No, this isn’t a post about Mark Mitchell). In many cases, by the time they decided, a UNC player was either applying pressure or cutting the passing lanes. I’m no...

    Duke Men’s Soccer 2024

    What an odd game, both in terms of Duke’s play as well as the imbalanced officiating. Our players seem to react slowly, with childlike reaction time. It was just very strange to watch.

    Duke Football 2024

    I’m still scratching my head that Peebles and Waters transferred to schools which really aren’t better football schools than Duke anymore. I’m hoping for their sake that they at least earned their Duke degrees before doing so; seems like a strange move unless the NIL money was seven-figures...

    Duke Baseball 2024, ACC Champs!

    Does anybody know where Obee transferred to? I couldn’t find anything on The Googles. Since the school year has begun, I figured that it he transfer may have happened by now, but I could be wrong (and often am).

    Welcome to Duke, Cooper Flagg!

    Last year, the Duke social media team would often take pictures and videos of the players walking to Cameron for the game that day. The players were wearing their own street clothes (Ryan Kelly would often wear retro tshirts, which isn’t relevant to your question). I recall Jeremy Roach often...

    2024-2025 Men’s Basketball Season: General Offseason Discussion

    I like this potential starting lineup. Just another potential option:. I could see slotting in Sion for Kon here. This could improve the defense (I know, I know, the jury is still out on Kon’s defense until we know more), and Sion looked like an awfully efficient offensive player last year...

    All the more reason he’ll need to learn to stay on his feet.

    2024-2025 Men’s Basketball Season: General Offseason Discussion

    ☝️this right here. Once Mark Williams figured this out toward the end of his freshman year, he became an invaluable defender. In the case of MW, it was a matter of him being more selective about when he left his feet, not falling for shot fakes, etc.

    Yet, they all seem to be about the same height at the shoulder, which many of us agree is more important than head height (I can't recall if it was this thread or another thread where this topic was discussed). ;)

    Where did K-ville go?

    It’s been over 20 years since I was a K-ville resident. During that time, I’ve seen (on TV) K-ville set up right outside of Card Gym. I flew into town from Oregon today, settled in for some dinner, and then decided to take my wife over to K-ville so she could see it for the first time. But, at...

    2019 NCAA tournament schedule for Duke

    We open on Friday at 7:10 p ET. If we are fortunate to win our opener, does anybody know what time we would play on Sunday? I am having trouble deducing the time from the bracket schedules on ESPN, CBS, and elsewhere. I can’t imagine that it would be contingent on matchups.

    Cameron seems "weak" this year

    I am watching the Kansas versus Kentucky game, and for the first time I can ever recall I am jealous of Allen Fieldhouse. They seem loud, they seem coordinated, and I'm even jealous of the color coordinated T-shirts. I know that Duke is having a down year, but Cameron seems out of sorts. It's...
