Obviously not the way Duke wanted to end things, but realistically only one team ends this tournament on a high note. I don’t think it matters what round you lose in. I don’t think it matters who you lose to. It just stings. This team and staff worked their butts off and made quite a ......

Great win for Duke battling past a very determined UVA team. In the early going UVA and in particular Sean Singletary, had Duke really flailing on defense. They had no answer, whether it was DeMarcus Nelson, Lance Thomas, or Nolan Smith, Singletary moved into the lane with ease. When he needed to......

The NC State game was definitely way too close for comfort. You have to applaud the way Coach Lowe had his kids mentally prepared for this game. They outplayed Duke in nearly every facet of the game. It’s a shame for them that they didn’t pull it off, but I can’t say I’m u......

I estimated before this game that Duke could have easily dropped it’s 3rd ACC game in a row and had this game been played in less friendly confines, who knows. Duke shot pretty awfully from three (2-15) and had to truly manufacture more points off the dribble and from the foul line than mos......

This is definitely a team on a roll, after defeating MD at Comcast center, they have gone on to some other pretty impressive wins. Including beating NC State by 20. Miami by 15, UNC BY 11, also BC by 10 and MD again by 12. This didn’t seem like it was in the cards after [...]...

At the MD game Mason Plumlee and his coach were in attendance checking out the latest school to offer Mason a scholly. The 6-11 power forward (not center) apparently enjoyed his time on campus and really liked what the coaches have had to say to him about how they would use him (more like a [...]...

Wow! What a game. I was lucky enough to be in attendance. Sitting next to a Duke fan and a Maryland fan and otherwise surrounded by MD fans. Fans that didn’t throw things at me, fans that cheered for their team and were respectful. That being said, this was the first game where I really [...]...

What can you say about Tech that hasn’t already been said? They do have an plethora of talent namely Jeff Allen of Oak Hill, who didn’t get play in this game because of his own stupidity. Stupidity has become as synonamous with Virginia Tech as tragedy. There is a lot to like about th......

All over the internet people have been predicting that Clemson would manhandle Duke, that they would own the boards and our physical the Blue Devils…and they were right..to a point, yes Clemson won the battle on the boards, but Duke turned on the afterburners and ran Clemson into the ground......

Duke thoroughly dominated UVA at home, which was a bit of a surprise to me. I did not think the devils would be able to contain Sean Singletary as well as they did. It definitely took a team effort. Putting multiple defenders on $$ at different points in the game (including Kyle Singler), really ......

Well it hasn’t been much of a challenge for Duke since it’s inception and last night didn’t change that at all. Duke hounded the Badgers into 18 turnovers and really dialed up the pressure in the first half, while coasting in the second half to the victory 82-58. I have to say t......
