"Throwback" Jerseys

I know you're like me. These new jerseys are nice, but nothing beats the good old blue and white. I miss the old jerseys circa 2001! Does anyone know of a place that still sells "throwback" Duke jerseys? Thanks!

Re: Who were your FIRST favorite Duke players?

Trajan and Battier. I liked Jason Williams a lot, too.

I wasn't really around for Hurley, but I have a feeling he would have been one of the favorites as well.

Re: How did you choose your User name?

Mine was actually my nickname at Duke lacrosse camp. We'd nickname guys on our camp team based on where they were from - there was "Florida," "Tex", "Jersey", etc. Being the only one on the team from North Carolina, I was dubbed the "Native." I kept the name handy for message board handles and the l...

Re: CTC

I just have to say how pleasantly surprised I was with the play of Quinn Cook. He's a lot quicker on the drive than I thought, especially considering that he's been somewhat injured for the past month. He made some great passes and knew how to finish around the rim. He was even willing to scrap with...

Re: 2012 Recruiting

In case anyone's interested, here's his highlights: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ekOT76VWPdc As mentioned, watching him play this year, the most salient aspects of his game are his hands and his ability to get yards after catch.
