DUKE BLUE DEVILS RUMORS & GOSSIP

Is Miles Plumlee the Next Brian Zoubek?

If I were Miles Plumlee I wouldn't know whether to be flattered or a bit depressed at the notion that I was being compared to Brian Zoubek. That isn't a slight on Zoubek though, his performance from the middle part of the 2009-2010 season is the thing of Duke legend and the Blue Devils would not have won the national title without him. But the expectations for Miles Plumlee...

Project Defensive Scoresheet: Duke 85 – UNC 84

By Tommy D — Did I say that the Virginia Tech game last week was a crossroads game for Duke? Was that me? No, no, no, that must have been someone else. Oh? It was me? Well, it couldn’t have been what I meant then. What I really meant was that the first meeting with UNC was the game that could or would decide what kind of season the Blue Devils were going to ultimately...

Fans Tweet the Darndest Things About Austin Rivers

Duke Guard Austin Rivers is very good. This shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone considering he was the number one rated Freshman coming into this year. Expectations for him are high and last night he lived up to those expectations as he scored 29 points (which is the most ever by a Freshman against North Carolina) including 6 from behind the arc and nailed the game winning...

No. 10 Duke looks for answers with No. 5 UNC next

Mike Krzyzewski says the 10 minutes he had on Monday's ACC coaches' teleconference wasn't nearly enough time to explain what the Blue Devils need to fix.

How do you solve Duke Basketball's problems?

What can you say about the 2012 Duke Basketball team that hasn't already been said a million times before? They are too young. Check. They don't play great defense. Check.

Duke Basketball: Plumlee Leads Duke Over Maryland

It was anybody's guess as to how the Devils would respond after the Florida State loss. It could have gone either way and the Terps of Maryland knew that. Maryland figured that if it could make Duke into a 2 point shooting team it could hang and have a chance to win at the end. The first half of the game the Terps played their strategy nearly perfectly. The Devils forced three after...
