Nice mid-week win last night over #6 ECU.

That’s a big win come tournament seeding in a couple weeks.

I read on yet another board formed by a significant number of disgusted emigrants from OY that the win over ECU is Duke's 6th (? 7th) win over a top 10 ranked foe this season. Amazing.

Here's Duke's final tally in the 2024 draft. OL Graham Barton was drafted in the first round by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers (No. 26 overall). DT DeWayne Carter was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the third round (No. 95 overall). OL Jacob Monk was drafted by the Green Bay Packers in the fifth round (N...

Power portals.

Bye

See ya, Sean.

The Spring transfer portal has opened (as of yesterday) for football. It runs from April 16th through the 30th. With practice ending this weekend, keep an eye out on movement either direction. Duke players should have a better idea of if and how they'll fit into Diaz's system, and the coaching staf...

Blakes is leaving…. Bummer. Joys of bringing in highly touted yet untested talent. We'd likely be better off with Blakes and his experience, even if he's not starting. From what I've read, the transfers the staff are considering are juniors and seniors with experience, as they realize we need to ge...

Flip and Jared declare for the NBA draft. "I'm gonna have a heart attack and die of non-surprise."

Seriously, I wish them both many successes in the league.

Delighted to see him return. Caleb is rumored to be returning; hoping this doesn't dissuade him. Roach is 50/50. I'm a huge Jeremy fan, but I don't see how Foster returns with Roach still on the roster, that's too many chefs in the kitchen for one of their liking. Might work; worked reasonably well...

Smart move, and great for us. His experience will be invaluable.

Announced minutes ago: MM goes portaling.

I was really hopeful he'd be back, but given his father's sway I wasn't optimistic. We're going to miss his experience and energy.

Hoping Power and Stewart stay and have very good sophomore years.

Announced minutes ago: MM goes portaling.
