I'll tease you some more later today and Friday and reveal some possible scenarios after about 4 PM on Saturday...

I'll start with one of the more innocent statements: The freshmen who will be playing/in the rotation are highly deserving of their roles and are GREAT ath-a-letes.

More later... ;)

Coach said he was recruiting 'em big, fast and strong.

they are not necessarily bigger but they are faster and stronger...

The starting backfield is not necessarily who you think it will be...

Kinny Rucker has been upgraded to "probable" from "questionable." I expect to see him on the field some Saturday night.

The opposing team's locker room is finished and the team met for a few minutes this morning in the new facility. Coach Cut said, "For too long we have been rude off the field by allowing opposing teams to come into the old, crappy locker room, but we have been really nice and kind on the field! That will be reversed starting Saturday. Richmond is going to be greeted by a new facility off the field, but we are going to be a mean, hungry group on the field!"

I expect to see the majority of you there on Saturday evening. It will be a game that you won't want to miss!

GO DUKE!

I don't know where you got your information, but that may have changed today in practice... ;)

This is an exciting day! The last day to wait for the beginning of the football season.

Coach says he wants to see a sea of blue. We can do that!

I can hear the chanting already starting.....

Rip 'em up
Tear 'em up
Give 'em hell Duke!!!!!!

Looks like a beautiful day in Durham tomorrow!

I paraphrased some "top secret" info I received and changed RB to backfield (go check your PM to me...ooops)

The LB are awesome.

The offense and special teams have some tricks up their sleeve...

The starting kickers may be different than last year although Maggio did boom a punt for 69 (that's YARDS for you thinking along Shamm's lines :roll: ) in practice this week.

And, the best bit of info about the offensive backfield is...


Nah, later today or at Brunchgate,,, ;)

Save for brunchgate..and then we'll post it from there!
I saw both kickers will see duty, but I'm not sure why they made a big deal of that. They did the same last year with long yardage field goals vs. short-medium yardage and kick offs.

I'm not sure which I'm more excited about, seeing all (or at least the majority) of the brunchgaters or seeing Duke football. I've been missing both. (and in true CTN fashion I will be a good PW and post this in two threads)
GO DUKE!!!!!

At least you're keeping it on-topic... :roll:

Great excitement about tomorrow. I agree, Cameron Born and Bred; I, too, have missed the peeps and the football.

No spaces...and with drawl..Cam'ruhnbornanbred. Or CB&B.

From my "un-named" source :roll:

Rucker will play. That apparently is a great story as Cut talked about a 'shirt for him in July due to his foot injury/infection.
Thad will start. My 'source" thought Renfree might start and it had nothing to do with height...
Boyette starts at RB and returns kicks with Hollingsworth
Vernon (?sp?) has the speed of Riley and better hands.
Maggio is the PK
A walk-on, Snyderman (?) is the KO kicker.

That's about it for inside info now. Perhaps a bit more over food and beverages tomorrow. I'm so excited I could PIMP. :roll:

It's GAME DAY!

Yes, indeed it is! Still got a few things to do before loading the car and heading to Greensboro to pick up some friends. The weather looks beautiful and there's a crisp, cool feel of fall early in the day. Good times are about to unfold!

PIMPin' ain't easy.

That's no pimp.
He is what's known as a..."Vaginal Contractor".
