I love you Grayson, Tyus, Quinn, Marshall, Jahlil, Amile, Justise, Matt...

with all the Duke hate going around on DU, let me be one of the few on here who is proud of Duke.

They do it well and they actually go to class, unlike their counterparts 9 miles away. Duke is a tough school academically too.

I am not afraid to say I'm proud of Duke.

did in this game - just amazing guard play - it was a game of wills. A classic.

As a Duke and a Red Sox fan and a Patriots fan, the hatred just makes me laugh.

Kyrie Irving, for example, still takes classes and wants a degree. Jabari also is doing the same.

I hate the one-and-done BS, by the way.

He was a starting on the high school basketball team as an 8th grader. The high school has an enrollment of nearly 2,000. I was hoping Wisconsin would win however. I became a big fan of Kaminsky.
