Duke's moving back on up. Blue Devils are 14th in this week's poll.

ESPN reporting Willie Simmons expected to take the Duke running backs coach position: https://x.com/espnrittenberg/status/1741869045534613982?s=61&t=x4NENFqF1Xpa4G-UXXVtSw Simmons is currently Florida A&M Head Coach. I've been wondering if he'd accept Duke's offer or stay. The post I put up earlier...

Wasn't pretty, but a win's a win, especially in conference play. Duke picks up their first ACC victory over Boston College. Duke 80- BC 75 is the final. Duke shot 57% from three and 68% overall. Duke also coughed up the ball 28 times, which is beyond terrible. Tania Mair (Transfer from BC) led with ...

Trooper Taylor is officially off to TA&M, and so Manny is trying to hire his replacement. His target is a current HC as his running backs coach; that's a twist. Duke is trying to lure Willie Simmons away from Florida A&M. New Duke head coach Manny Diaz has offered Florida A&M head coach Willie Simmo...

Best wishes to DeWayne Carter, I'm looking forward to watching him on Sundays. On Thursday evening, redshirt senior defensive tackle DeWayne Carter — the team's only three-time captain — officially announced his declaration for the 2024 NFL Draft, bringing his lengthy and accolade-filled stay in Dur...

Impressive bio. I'm starting to get a bit anxious about filling the roster with some portal transfers.

I'm not worried. Diaz is building an enticing staff, and names are still entering the portal. Murphy is a good sign that things aren't dim for Duke.

New tight ends coach, Justin Watts, via Appalachian State. Last season, Watts helped the Mountaineers to a 9-5 overall record, a Sun Belt East Division title, an appearance in the conference championship game and a 13-9 victory over Miami (Ohio) in the Avocados from Mexico Cure Bowl. Additionally, h...

Thanks for the Christmas Smiles you cheating bastards! Smiling extra wide at your three game losing streak (should be 4) to wrap up your season!

Jonathan Patke is being hired as our new DC. He might be a bit tired right now, as he was coaching his Texas State team last night in their victory over Rice. Texas State entered the day No. 1 overall in the country in tackles for loss, averaging 8.5 per game. That statistic offers a window into the...

Jeff Norrid has been hired as the OL coach. Lots of history in big name programs with lots of success. Norrid brings over 20 years of coaching experience to Durham, including 10-plus years spent in the Southeastern Conference under Lane Kiffin, Guz Malzahn, Houston Nutt, and Nick Saban. Norrid's res...

Bob might be yelling Run The Ball to deaf ears next season. Everyone brought in so far has made a strong passing game a major staple of their offenses. Thankfully, they've been successful in doing it.

We should have a good better idea of coaching changes this week. I'm expecting a lot of new names.

Kicking off this thread as a holiday present to us all. The bowl is over, Duke ended 8-5 on a season that was tough sell for victories before September. So, in hindsight, thanks to those that made amazing things happen, and in foresight, bring on some more! :happy-bouncyblue: Obviously, we've got a ...

I totally saw this coming. Thanks for shirking your duty, Supreme Court. https://apple.news/A7pYz-rCjQWukkrbYaot5TA[/url] That was why he argued against it, of course. Like you said, easy to see. His appeal says that if it's denied, he'll need up to three months to appeal the lower court decision. ...

What a great way to end the year!
Chandler Rivers got the MVP trophy, and was wonderfully humble in his acceptance. Wasn't him, it was the team.

Welcome to Duke, Maalik! Murphy is a 6-foot-5, 238-pound redshirt freshman who brings high-end arm talent to the position. He'll be immediately eligible and has three seasons remaining. Murphy, ESPN's No. 250 overall player in the Class of 2022, is the highest ranked quarterback and sixth highest-ra...

FSU sues to GTFO. The Florida State board of trustees voted unanimously Friday to file suit against the ACC to challenge the legality of both the league's grant of rights and $130 million withdrawal fee, a necessary first step to plot its future and potential exit from the conference. "I believe thi...

Buckle up. Florida State is expected to soon start the process of its long-discussed divorce from the ACC, multiple sources told Yahoo Sports. The Seminoles’ conference affiliation is at the center of a scheduled meeting Friday of the FSU Board of Trustees, and the result of the meeting could produc...
