It was past time for a change. Duke has always been my biggest passion when it comes to my sports teams. I've always enjoyed collegiate sports more. The passion and the history that exists within them is like nothing else.
Time to represent that. 🔵😈
If there's one single Duke fan that isn't thrilled Rese is coming back, I'm afraid you may never find happiness with Duke basketball. It's huge! And I expect his offensive game to take a major step forward with this upcoming team and how it's primarily going to be constructed.
Coach Taylor absolutely deserves a head coaching gig if he receives an offer and chooses it. But there's nothing I want more than to keep him within the Duke program. He's a bigger piece for our program than many outside of Duke fans even realize. He is Duke! 🔵😈
Duke linebacker Ryan Smith has withdrawn from the transfer portal,
@On3sports
has learned.
Across 30 career games, he's compiled 24 tackles, 4 TFL, 2 sacks, 2 forced fumbles and a blocked punt during his time in Durham.
I understand why many fans want Coach K as the guest picker on
@CollegeGameDay
next week but this is for football, for the fist time. Not basketball. Let's get someone with ties to the football program. The obvious choice being Daniel Jones, who was on the team that last beat ND.
UNC went 8-4 with a top 2 pick in Drake Maye at QB, finishing 7th in the conf. that they were expected to finish top 3, even top 2 by many. That's meeting expectations?
And Duke finishing 7-5 with the toughest schedule in the ACC and 5 gms w/o Leonard is not failed expectations.

And this was called a strike last night in favor of San Francisco. Missing a pitch is bad but missing a clear failed check swing by the 1B ump, that's worse.
Says a lot about the officiating of tonight's game when fans of teams not named Duke, are speaking to how robbed Duke was. How one sided it was, particularly late. And let's be real, outside of Duke fans no one else cares about "lowly Duke football" enough to come to our defense.
I can't recall a time where I've been more enraged by officiating in a Duke football game. Probably not sense the Miami lateral play and then it was one play, not a whole game. Refs deserved every bit of what Elko said to them and I don't even need to hear what he said.
@AroundTheNFL
I mean usually I'd say no to running the score up but you've already hung 70 on them and it wasn't a concern, so why draw the line at a record setting FG? 😂
@HoltonMusicMan
@CBSSports
You either didn't watch the game, don't know basketball or you're the typical Duke hater who dismisses wins to the credit of the officials doing the job for us. FTs were 17-9 in favor of Duke in which 7 of those 17 came late with Tech playing from behind, so 10-9 rest of the way.
Nothing but respect for you,
@TrueBlueTrooper
. Thank you for all you did for Duke football and the individuals that came through. The University is better for it because of you. You'll absolutely be missed in Durham! Thanks for holding it down when asked of you, & then some. 🔵😈
This is the one that hurts more than any other player that's left Duke. He was the kind of player every team wants and their fans fall in love with. A team player that gave it his all every single game. Thank you for 4 years, Captain! You'll be missed. I wish you the best! 🔵😈
NEWS: Duke guard Jeremy Roach is entering the transfer portal while declaring for the NBA Draft, he announced.
The 6-2 senior averaged 14 PPG this season. Former McDonald’s All-American.
For all of us that were upset over the most recent HC departure, I have a good feeling about the future of Duke football with Coach Diaz. Something tells me we're going to be in very good hands in the years to come and I couldn't be more excited. LGD! 🔵😈
“I just love that man. He’s changed my life.”
Jalon Calhoun gets emotional when discussing he and Mike Elko’s embrace after the win over Pitt and describing what Coach Elko has meant to him since arriving two years ago.
I believe this got more support than was expected, from Duke fans and non Duke fans alike. A lot more than I expected. I've seen quite a few fans saying it would make them come out to more games. Certainly would bring about more attention and discussions around Duke football.
@DukeFOOTBALL
Heck of a fight once again. The 4-3 record is very deceiving. Love this team and Coach Elko. Seeing him being as frustratingly passionate as the fans is everything I want out of the man responsible for leading my team to victories.

The Keels and 1 being waved off was the right call. However; FTs were 24-20 in favor of UNC, and fouls were 19 on UNC and 18 on Duke. Let's not pretend like it was one sided. Some bad calls or no calls went both ways.
What a day for Duke on the diamond!
@DukeBASE
with their second ACC championship in program history! With a 16-4 win over FSU.
@DukeSOFTBALL
with their first WCWS appearance in program history! With a 4-3 win over Mizzou in extras of a winner take all.

"Blew out
#18
Duke at home."
Duke led thru 3 quarters with a banged up Riley & it wasn't until he exited the game due to injury that FSU got the lead & won by 18.
A top 4 team, @ home & playing

. They were supposed to win. Of all the arguments to make for FSU, this isn't it.
So let me get this straight...
Florida State BLEW out one of the top SEC teams in LSU in Week 1 & earned a

ranking
Since then, they've accomplished the following:
🏈 Won at Top 25 Clemson
🏈 Blew out
#18
Duke at home
🏈 Beat Florida to go 2-0 against the SEC
🏈 Beat
#14
From 3-9(0-8) & 7th to 8-4(5-3) & 2nd! One play vs UNC away from facing Clemson in the conference championship game. Truly an incredible and memorable season! First year HC, nearly a brand new staff with a first year QB. Safe to say the players bought in! Well done! 👏🏻🔵😈

It will never fail to blow my mind how the Dodgers get more hate and discredited for their 2020 World Series victory than the Astros who were caught cheating in multiple different ways, with proof and allowed to keep their title/trophy. Just hilarious the inconsistencies of fans.
Respect guys for wanting to finish what they started and I'm glad they do. I want them to. But CFB is in such a weird spot. Guys committed to new teams while still playing for their old team. Such a weird concept.
NEWS: Syracuse transfer forward Maliq Brown has committed to Duke, he tells

The 6-8 sophomore averaged 9.5 points and 7.2 rebounds per game this season. Shot nearly 70% from the field.
I'm fully aware what I'm about to say isn't the case but man it really feels like the last two years of Duke football are useless now.
All of it for what? Is Duke in a better position now than they were? I suppose it depends what comes of the remaining staff, players & commits.
So proud of Duke closing the season out right through all the "could be" distractions. Great win for the program to cap another fun season of

Gonna miss the guys on this team, they were always competitive and fun to watch. Wish them all well with what's next!🔵😈
@DukeFOOTBALL
I feel emotionally conflicted on this. It had to happen and I'm glad it did. But knowing the success he brought for Duke, it's hard to celebrate this. However it was past time and the right move. I'll forever be grateful for the success he brought to our program. Class act! 🔵😈
Lane Kiffin on the Transfer Portal, College Football calendar:
"It’s a terrible system... I wouldn’t think any other sports have ever set up a system where free agency starts while the season is still going."
This one hurts, a lot. What a crazy two weeks in Duke football. Nothing but respect for Coach Taylor and all he did with his time at Duke and the lives he touched. Stand up guy and I wish him well in his next chapter. He'll certainly be missed in Durham! 🔵😈
@TrueBlueTrooper
It's another 🔵😈 gameday! Can't be overstated how important of a game this is for Duke but the approach doesn't change whatsoever. Time to take advantage of the opportunity and shock the world!

I'm going to miss this group of Seniors. They've experienced it all. Wish nothing but the best for them as they move on from Duke but the job's not done yet... One more to go! 🔵😈

Roberts pulling his man too soon? Stop me if you've heard that before. It's either too soon or not soon enough, there's no in between with him. Just mismanaging after mismanaging, almost every postseason.
@accnetwork
@CanesFootball
The fact that this is still widely celebrated as the correct call, when your own conference came out and suspended the officiating crew for getting it wrong, blows my mind.
@MarkPacker
Same story, different year. The conference that gets the most disrespect, performs better or as good as most other teams. Guarantee if the ACC still exists this time next year, we'll be having the same old conversation.
Did we really just thank the Troy fans for traveling from Alabama to Alabama but no mention to the Duke fans going from North Carolina to Alabama? That's interesting.
And so the dominoes continues to fall... One of my favorites to don the Duke jersey. Could've potentially been a Duke legend without the injuries. Wish him nothing but the best! 🔵😈
