    WE GOT HIM

    More importantly, thrilled to welcome Trevon Duval to Duke. His video was classy (hungry and humble, can't ask for more than that)--well done!

    WE GOT HIM

    You are right on with this point. I am pretty sure that UNC would be terrified of taking this case to court.

    Bolden Tatum Giles

    But unless he is a hack reporter (I don't know, but his tagline is "Post-Dispatch sportswriter since 1986 also is the primary sports columnist for STLtoday.com"), he wouldn't open the article with that statement unless he at least talked to a credible source off the record; and it's easy to...

    Bolden Tatum Giles

    Maybe some of the posters here have inside info that the rest of us haven't heard, but talk of all three being a long way off doesn't jive with what I have read elsewhere (beyond Coach K's statement that he will be conservative and not rush them back before they are definitely ready). I don't...

    Looking At 2017 Recruiting.

    Maybe, I wasn't clear. I think we have a good shot at both. I remember reading that Carter, at least, would like to play with Bamba. I am not sure exactly what Bamba is currently thinking.

    Article by Chase Jeter

    Agreed, crazyduke3, that's one of the things I love best about being a Duke fan--the exceptionally high character of some of these kids. It's refreshing to see a young man so open and honest in his self-assessment. With that mindset, it's hard to imagine that he won't continue to significantly...

    Jefferson showing the new guys the ropes .

    Maybe it's the angle, but it looks like Bolden has a couple inches on Giles and about 3 inches on Amile. Meanwhile, Tatum looks almost the same height as Amile. What a change, we're going to be big next year. Can't wait!

    Duke Basketball Camp

    Thanks for posting your honest assessment. It is definitely tough to find basketball camps that know how to teach young kids, which is not at all like teaching high schoolers or even middle schoolers; and some of the higher "profile" camps seem to be among the worst. I guess it's not too...

    The Carolina Way VIII

    Well, crap, I really didn't think the NCAA would have the gall to ignore the role of the men's basketball program in all of this, but I may have been naive. How many past players majored in AFAM? This looks like a joke.

    The Carolina Way VIII

    Regardless of whether RCCPMD was a troll or not, I still agree with his previous conclusions: many UNC athletes are likely to be judged academically ineligible due to fake AFAM or other independent study classes, which leads to a need to vacate wins from games in which they played. So I think...

    The Carolina Way VIII

    I see that a UNC fan is now posting from the RCCPMD account. He is claiming to have been punking his followers, though I am guessing the original poster was probably hacked. Otherwise, it seems like a lot of trouble to go through for no obvious gain. Anyway, I can't wait to see what's in the new...
