Tonight at 7 vs Tennessee.

I’m anxious to see this game. Tennessee is a top 10 team.

Idk who they have besides Juke Harris who we all know can score.

I’m guessing Sarr gets him.,,,
Think they got Aimes as well from Cal .
I’m just looking for rebounding and defense and a cut down of the turnovers.

I don’t think Foster is playing so more time for Rippey and Cam to get comfortable playing pg and allowing Blackwell to stay off the ball.

good game to see how they have progressed as a team since coming to campus in June.

Team looks really good. Was really happy with the addition of Blackwell; you guys know I love seniors. Looks like a final four team with depth and experience. Sarr looks like he made a big jump. No glaring weaknesses and I see no reason why we won't be a one seed. A lot of guys to keep happy but that is a good problem.
Hearing we are up big!

The defense from starters to bench looked really impressive for this to be so early . Howard and Williams look like true freshman. Rippey looks like a sophomore who’s played at this level . I was really impressed especially since Tennessee had three past ACC players on their roster. On to Kansas Sunday .

Great performance last night! We really don’t know how good Tennessee will be, but that was a good old fashioned *** whoopin last night. I’m super impressed with Sarr’s improvement and confidence. Wilkins is a pleasant surprise and Rip is going to get his well deserved minutes. I’m more excited about this “team” than our last two. If someone is having an off night, there’s plenty of others to step up. Looking forward to Sunday’s game at Kansas. It should tell us more.

I'm trying to not dribble down my leg with excitement, because expectations are always high with Duke, and the season hasn't really started yet. I've been waiting on a Duke team that has multiple 'dogs,' versus relying on one guy to shoulder the majority of the load. Don't get me wrong, I loved Cooper and Cam, but teams in March just made it tough on them, and they didn't get enough help.
I think we got several dogs on this squad though. My advice to the team this season is you better bring it, or you'll find yourself picking splinters.

I might be eating crow later on, but I don't think so.
