NCAA investigation

Post by Very Duke Blue » October 16th, 2017, 7:13 pm

Is Duke being investigated because the program is so successful? I cannot imagine Coach K would do anything to jeopardize the program . I hope no one else has.

VDB - are you asking out of speculation that we are being investigated? Or do you know for a fact that we are being investigated?

Interesting, none of the major newswires have said anything about it. Perhaps the hazards of living in NC and someone is making it up?

The AP asked schools with major basketball programs if they were reviewing their own basketball program as a response to the FBI probe. Duke's answer was yes.

Thank you for setting me straight. Happy I didn't hear it right.

Here's the link to the story over at WTVD:

I am going to guess that Duke had already started reviewing the program as soon as word came down. Better to be pro-active than reactive.
