    Duke baseball -- 2025 season

    And he took his staff with him. Pollard must have known he was leaving quite some time ago, since his staff was ready to depart with him. Nina King's record on coaching hires is excellent. I have confidence she will hit the jackpot again for baseball. She has a successful program to offer new...

    I can't figure out how this new House settlement will affect Duke football. I assume most of the $20million will go to football but not as high a percentage as other schools that don't have elite basketball teams and also top nonrevenue teams such as baseball (although that may become a revenue...

    It would be great if we can add "reached College World Series" next week!

    DUKE IN THE NBA

    Can't wait to watch Cooper playing next to Lively!

    The way Scheyer and staff are able to keep their contacts with transfer prospects private is amazing. Based on the past 2 years, there is no question in my mind that he knows who he wants, has them "standing by" until decisions or announcements are made by current players, and we'll be fine in...

    Nate Ament

    I know it's only an All star game, but in last night's game, Cayden looked pretty good but at least twice his man drove right past him. Either he lacks quickness or he has a lot to learn about moving his feet.

    The Motherhood/Fatherhood

    What I get out of this is how much younger than I am all the parents are. Are there any photos of the players' grandparents?

    We know verbal commits are fluid. I hope Coach Diaz and staff are out there looking for weak commits at other schools as well. It's how the game is played now.

    Other Games 24-25 Season

    That is exactly why Duke doesn't rush their players back from injury.

    This may be famous last words, but I feel like Coach Diaz is more invested in Duke than his predecessor, and it's easier to sell a place when you are so committed yourself. Plus, the administration is much more committed to football than I have ever seen.

    Half-Way Point

    Good opening post. I feel like our defense has taken a step back, both literally and figuratively lately. We need to stop giving up open 3s which allow inferior teams to gain confidence and gives them a "puncher's chance" to win. We have the interior defense to allow the perimeter to close out...

    And Manny was at the Basketball game last night rooting on the Devils. Wonder how many b-ball games Midnight Mike made in his short stay at Duke. Great time to be a Duke fan!

    How is Schaper still a 3 star on 24/7? I like the way he tackles.

    Top Five Reasons I think NBA Ratings are down...

    I do think the NBA has become part entertainment oriented, part competition oriented. The refs seem to bend and enforce the rules (traveling, double dribbling, even throwing the ball in bounds) selectively depending upon who is involved and time and score. The reason there are so many 3 pointers...
