Re: ECU interviewing Montgomery (Officially hired)

Love this video which chronicles the day as Scottie begins to meet the folks he's going to work with and represent. It's called "Coach Mo Behind the Scenes." ;;)

Re: Duke at Wake Forest

The UVA game was a downer.....until the fourth quarter. I'm optimistic about this last game. Our players are the same young men we cheered early in the season. I view this situation as somewhat like when our children have struggled to accomplish things we know they can do. Being upbeat and acting ac...

Re: Three players dismissed from the team

Regarding the nightclub fight two years ago, it's obviously not the triggering event for dismissal. I view it as a symptom of ongoing problems which continued. ;;) DitBD, this was exactly the reason I mentioned it. By itself it doesn't seem like much but as a part of a larger picture it carries mor...

Lacrosse ;;)

Barnes ended up with a cast on his hand as well.

Re: Three players dismissed from the team

For whatever the reason, this event made me think of the basketball team back a few years ago when they couldn't seem to gel the entire season. One of the players left (McRoberts) and the tone lifted immediately. Discord can eat away at all sorts of good intentions. I also think back to one of these...

Re: Duke vs Pitt, 12:00 noon

I thought it was interesting that Sirk never came in. I DID like what I saw from Boehme, and in the first quarter I figured Sirk would never start again...but that's also pretty much the only quarter we had any offense. Sirk was warming up, but I guess he truly was too banged up to play and risk ge...

Band Concert Before the Pitt Game

Immediately after the Devil Walk on Saturday, our own marching band will march back out to the Card Gym Lot for a short ceremony and concert. Our tailgate group ( tent #1) has been conducting fund raisers during the home football season for several years. The funds go to help fill in the gaps in fun...

Re: Jeremy Cash and the Heisman

Jeremy is certainly deserving. Having any Duke player mentioned in a discussion of Heisman contenders is a major milestone for the program. Who knows, all the hoopla about the officiating at the end of the Miami game may help in all such competitions which Duke football players can now be considered...

Re: Duke @ Cheater Hill, 12:00, ESPN2

Not much help in looking back at Miami, so let's look ahead to the cheaters. Will we bring bouquets to decorate their locker rooms with after our victory? Way classier than spray paint. :9f: If we win, I like the idea of a floral bouquet or two. Cheaper than spray paint. Make mine Pantone 287, plea...

Re: Duke @ Cheater Hill, 12:00, ESPN2

Not to put the cart in front of the horse, but I certainly hope no spray paint makes the trip to Cheater Hill. There will be plenty of time to repaint the bell once it safely back in Durham. Carolina has an explosive offense so our defense is going to have their hands full, which is why our offense...

Re: Russian roulette on TWC

Can anybody tell me where and when I can actually SEE the David Cutcliffe show? It's been either Time Warner's or the channel's MO for several years now to bait and switch. I set my DVR to what is advertised on the guide but that's not what comes up here. Naturally, The Hat's show always comes on w...

If anyone else needs tickets, I have 4 reserved seats next to me available. ;;)

They are in Section 26 near the 50 yard line and close enough to read the players lips on the sidelines.

Re: Duke vs. Boston College, 3:30 RSN

In addition to problems caused by injuries at QB, isn't BC now missing an RB who's out for Saturday's game? ;;)

I'm hoping that our own injury report is short and uncomplicated.
