The Brotherhood Podcast (hosted by CFos)!

Sion comes across as a really good guy, if he was cowboy he would be wearing a white hat !
Just dated myself badly...

A couple of interesting items:
-Sion adds to the KTriple hype train...says he's been the most surprising player to him so far as he does a little bit of everything and does it well.

Good news: the team has not been reading the Boards this year, otherwise they would have learned from the denizens of Kon Island that his game has no weaknesses. Anyone pegging him as "just a shooter" has not seen him play (or visited Kon Island).
 
I learned that not surprisingly I have nothing in common with a 19 year old Duke player other than I walked the same campus a half a century ago. I know no video games. I don't even like Chick Fil-A which is apparently the food of choice for Duke players. I can't believe that company hasn't done an NIL deal with the Duke team.
 
Just watched the Maliq podcast. Seems like a good guy who is proud of his defense.

Funniest part was when Cfos asks what Maliq's favorite pro team is. I won't spoil it.

Either Sion or Mason had a similar answer on their episode, to the “favorite pro team” question, ha.

I’m noticing another trend - Kon got called out *again* as being the biggest surprise or most impressive in practice so far. I know the car is sort of out of the bag but the reviews he has gotten from his upperclassman teammates is really promising.

Add Cooper Flagg's endorsement to the Kon hype:


I wonder if this is an example of the soft bigotry of low expectations...that his new teammates looked at Kon as a slightly doughy caucasian from cow country and assumed he wouldn't be as good? The specific podcast question is, "Which player has surprised you the most?" I bring this up because I am trying to think about who is going to get real PT and who isn't and am wondering if his election as a unanimous "surprise" means he's slated for greatness or that they all just unanimously wrote him off before stepping on the court with him? Time shall tell.

Not to bury the lede, the Cooper pod is good. They added the wrinkle of having the social media audience submit questions which I think helped thicken the content. One thing I really enjoyed hearing was Cooper stating that he doesn't really have individual goals, that if the team accomplishes their team goals, the individual stuff will take care of itself. When he talks about what he's working on, it's very specific stuff related to defense, shooting and ball handling. There is a ton of good info, give it a listen.
 
I was wondering when Cooper would make his way to the interview room, so I definitely want to listen to this one.

Also, I want to see how the "favorite pro team" question goes. Don't spoil it for me!
 
Cfos is getting better and better as an interviewer. This was his best interview yet. I'd add more, but I can't get the spoiler function to work.


The most interesting part for me was Cooper's mention of guys accepting their roles. He acknowledged that this team has talent galore (a belief that seems to be shared by many), but minutes will be hard fought.

Cooper's comments on the Brotherhood Podcast are now on the front page of ESPN. Great PR for the pod and Caleb for sure!

Here's the article, which is primarily about his time on the USA Select Team earlier this month.

Flagg: 'I was nervous' to face LeBron, Team USA

Cooper Flagg said he was "nervous" to face his idol LeBron James and Team USA in a scrimmage this month.

"It was cool, an unbelievable experience," Flagg said during an appearance on "The Brotherhood Podcast," hosted by his Duke teammate Caleb Foster. "Just having the opportunity to be there and just share the court with that level of talent and player, the people who've made that type of name for themselves. I've been watching them for years, growing up.

"The first day, for sure, I was nervous. I didn't know what to think. I got on the court, and I was like, 'Wow.' I was guarding LeBron in the corner. It kind of just hit me for a second, and I had to snap out of it."

Next up for CFos (or is it CFish?) are the McCain brothers.


A couple of questions coming off this one:
-What grad degree is Jayce pursuing at Duke? They way he described it sounded kind of abstract. I know you Pratt grads already look down at us Trinity grads as having an easy path to the sheepskin but, man, Jayce's study track sounds a little "flexible"
-Jared alludes to Josh Hart taking a shot at him on the Roomates Show pod he does with JBrunson. I assume this is what he meant
-Jared is looking for a townhouse in Philly. Why hasn't Zoubs already taken care of this?
