You could have posted that they won 85-80 in OT so I didn't have to look it up on ESPN. :p

Duke lost. That's all that matters to me.

You knew I was born in NC, right?

Ahhh, the memories of Wilmington.

It's gotta be rough, with what, 7 McD AA's? Guess you need 9 or so to have a chance in the ACC.

sigh paulus and mcroberts were extremely disappointing in my opinion, we need at least two prolific scorers because coach K couldn't run an offense to save his life. I also think its kind of interesting that people hate us so much. Duke rarely talks that much sh1t about any other school except for carolina

The point is, with the blue chip talent that Dook gets, they should be able to beat an NC State team with a first-year coach and a shortage of players.

High school rankings of Duke recruits go up as soon as Duke starts recruiting them, so that argument is kinda circular.

Henderson, however, is a legit blue chip recruit no matter who recruited him. That's why he would have made a difference. Zoubek and Thomas, however....wow, they are painful to watch on the court.

Check out Lance Thomas's season stats: Keep in mind these are SEASON stats.

1 assist in 425 minutes.
78 personal fouls compared to 72 rebounds.
44 field goals compared to 42 turnovers.

I'm trying to find a way to quantify how bad those stats are, because it has to be a record somehow.


I just have one thing to say to Coach K....PLAY POCIUS MORE!!!

Duke is hated for many reasons. One good example is K being in an AMEX commercial about being a "leader" right during the NCAA tournament when the most HS players are watching. That should never have been allowed. And what about Duhon's (?) mom or whatever getting that high paying job she was completely unqualified for?

There's plenty of dirty stuff that goes on at Dook that you don't hear about. Live around here and you'll start hearing things.
Boozer's mom, for instance.

Dook still hasn't been put on probation, or stripped of their wins, or anything for using an ineligible player for a whole season. (Corey Magette).
Etc, etc, etc....they are untouchable, as is UNC. UNC does tons of illegal (NCAA) stuff and nothing is said.

Oh, you mean like that last foul on Grant behind the 3-point line with about 18 seconds to go? That was bullsh!t.

Anyway, can't blame the refs for everything.
