I've been a Duke fan since the days of Christian Laettner and Bobby Hurley, Antonio Lang, Grant Hill and Cherokee Parks. They really dropped the ball last year against UCONN, but I thought the officiating was a little shady. I believe they will be ranked around #8 before the season this year, but man was it tough seeing Livingston decide to go pro.

i absolutely hated those choir boys back in the day. i think i also dont think that highly of the program because their players always seem to underperform in the pros. there seems to be an element of self-destruction, which suggests to me that coach k controls everythingin college, and when the players get to the pros they cant handle the responsibility. laettner had drug problems, hurley wrecked himself in a drunk driving accident, jay williams drove his bike into a tree. i do like elton brand, but other than that there arent really any dukies that i cheer for.
livingston was a big loss, and deng leaving after only a year is also a big blow to the program. they are still stacked though. randolph should really emerge this year. |

I'm not that much of a homer, but I see a final 4 in Pitt's future.

How could you not like Duke?
Grant Hill was probably the best player to be, but unfortunately we'll never know, damn ankles. Maggette looks like a keeper, and Duhan could turn out to be the surprise of this draft.

i just dont really like their players. i will recognize that they are extremely talented, and that they are extremely well coached.
maybe it is just that i get sick and tired of listening to dick vitale rant and rave about the dukies. maybe it is just that i am sick and tired of watching duhon and the like take a :charge" when their feet are still moving. maybe i just cant stand people lionizing player like steve wojo because they hustle so much. maybe its just because i cant stand their fans, who think that they are just sooo funny and creative. im not sure what it is overall, but i just dont like duke. |
