DBR Bites #68 - We Learn What A Wofford Is

The Duke Blue Devils return to Cameron on Saturday to take on the Wofford Terriers, and we preview the game on DBR Bites #68. Charles Barkley once said famously, “I don’t know what a Wofford is...but I know basketball.” Well, we get to learn who the Wofford Terriers are as we get ready for the Blue Devils to line up against them. This is always that difficult team that gives opponents fits in the NCAA Tournament, so we have to take them seriously. After discussing who Wofford has played and how they’ve done so far, Jason and Donald get into the analytics, focusing on what they do well on offense and defense as well as where they haven’t been great. Hopefully the 3 point shooting is back on Saturday, because Wofford allows a lot of them! We then discuss some of the players who we could see from Wofford, including one that has a personal connection to Jason that will have him perhaps cheering for a couple of Terrier 3s on Saturday. After the break, Duke is headed to Army next year for a Veterans Day road game at West Point, and we think that’s going to be super cool. And, we end with Jared McCain absolutely lighting it up for the Philadelphia 76ers and earning some buzz for Rookie of the Year. Make sure you’re following us!

#662 - What happened? Understanding Duke's loss to Kentucky

Well, that wasn't the ending we all expected. The Blue Devils fumble the ball away down the stretch and drop their first game of the season to Kentucky at the Champions Classic. The DBR Podcast was in State Farm Arena for the big event as Jason was in attendance along with some of his class of '89 friends. He has observations from the site and the podcast also welcomes back Sam Klein to help breakdown what went wrong for Duke in this game. Though it was an L, the podcast gang has a feeling there was a lot learned in this contest that will turn into more Ws in the future. After the break, Donald, Jason, and Sam also get into some videos recently posted online by Kyle Singler that seem to show a guy who is very troubled. Sam, especially, feels a connection here as he knew Kyle when they were classmates at Duke. We are wishing Kyle well and hope he gets what he needs at this difficult time.

DBR Bites #67 - Wildcat Alert! Previewing Kentucky

Ok, enough with the overmatched opponents. The Blue Devils are ready for some real competition. Duke faces Kentucky on Tuesday in the Champion's Classic and any time these two bluest of blue bloods get together you know it will be a game to remember! The Duke Basketball Roundup has a complete preview of the contest including a breakdown of Kentucky's style of play (fast, with a lot of 3s) and which players to keep an eye upon. Jason and Donald are especially interested in the big man matchups -- how Khaman handles Kentucky's hulking center Amari Williams and whether Kentucky PF Andrew Carr has any chance to contain Cooper Flagg. After the break, the guys dive into football team's 29-19 victory over NC State, a win that once again featured stellar defense from Duke. The victory gives Duke a sweep of its Triangle rivals for the first time since 2013 and Jason gives us the odds on how many games Duke will win this year? Who wants to bet against 10 victories for Manny Diaz's surging team? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

#661 - Artillery Attack! Duke Defeats Army

The Blue Devils took care of business in resounding fashion against another overmatched opponent on Friday night, hitting the century mark as they defeated the Army Black Knights. When the threes weren't working, Duke pounded the glass to stake themselves to a nice lead. And then, when the threes began to fall, the rout was on. The Duke Basketball Roundup breaks it all down from Manman's board dominance to a sterling showing by the Duke bench to Cooper's overall excellence (and his cramps). But, ever the analysts, Jason and Donald don't just focus on the good they saw, there is plenty of conversation about what Duke needs to work on as we prepare for much stiffer tests in coming weeks, including Kentucky in just a couple days.

DBR Bites #66 - The Black Knights Come Marching In

The Duke Blue Devils are back in action tomorrow against the Army Black Knights, and we preview the upcoming game on the latest DBR Bites! Army comes in 1-0 off a win over UAlbany to open the season, and they have some experience from several players who have been together for a few years. They run a slow pace, and Donald and Jason talk through their style of play and what they do well along with what they traditionally haven’t done well. After the break, we get into some of the players, and some have interesting stories or ACC links. There are a few guys to watch and generally, the duo touches on what Duke needs to do to take care of business on Friday night. Make sure you’re following us!

#660 - Bear Mauling! Duke dominates Maine in season debut

Well, that was fun. Duke kicked off the season with a 36 point beatdown of the Maine Black Bears, a resilient and spunky team that was no match for the overwhelming talent and depth that Duke could put on the floor. The Duke Basketball Roundup has a breakdown of everything the happened in this contest, with special focus on the playmaking and all around excellence of freshman stars Kon Knueppel and Cooper Flagg. After telling you all about the good and bad from this game, co-hosts Jason Evans and Donald Wine also get into the action across the rest of college basketball on Monday including how every ACC team performed and a look at former Dukies who are now playing all over the country after entering the transfer portal. Oh, and the guys also reveal the winner of their headline contest. With over 100 entries it was not easy to pick which Duke fan would get to take home a Homefield Apparel Duke pullover jacket.

#659 - The season is here! Let's preview some Bears!

The Duke Blue Devils open up the season Monday evening against the Maine Black Bears, and we preview the game on Episode 659! Maine comes to town for the first game of the year, and Jason and Donald take us through what we can expect from the Black Bears. They have some experience and a couple of guys who are sound defensively. And, we look forward to what Duke brings to the table and how maturity and leadership should get off to an excellent start tomorrow night. The Podcast is also beginning the 2024-25 season by giving away a really cool Duke pullover courtesy of Homefield Apparel! All you have to do is submit your best headline from the Maine game to DBR Podcast at Gmail dot com. No headlines submitted before the end of the game will count, so wait until the game is over and then give us your best stuff! We’ll collect the headlines until around noon ET on Tuesday and the best headline will win the pullover! Shelton Henderson officially committed to Duke on Saturday, becoming the 4th player in Duke’s Class of 2025 recruiting class. We go over again what makes him special and we’re really excited to see him in a Duke uniform next season. After the break, we head to the gridiron, where Duke Football lost to Miami 53-31 in a game that was much closer than the score indicated. We discuss what went wrong for the Blue Devils and hope they are able to recognize they’re better than that score. With a trip to NC State coming up this weekend, Duke has a chance to get back on track and secure a solid bowl with wins in their last 3 games. Make sure you’re following us!

DBR Bites #65 - 2 Duke recruits and a Miami preview

The latest edition of the Duke Basketball Roundup has a full plate of stuff to fill you up. It starts with a preview of Duke football's big game this weekend against Miami. Donald Wine is an expert on the 'Canes and tells us everything we need to know about the toughest game on Duke's schedule this season. Up next, we preview a pair of big recruiting decisions being announced this weekend. Shelton Henderson and Acaden Lewis have each taken official visits in the past couple weeks and the DBR podcast breaks down what they could decide this weekend. Here's a hint, we think at least one of them will be picking Duke. And, after a break, it is time to talk about Dukies getting paid -- both Cooper Flagg's history-making deal with Gatorade and some Dukies in the NBA who are having pretty good weeks.
