DBR Bites #115 - Meet the Duke C.B.O., Jayson Tatum

Just days after Jon Scheyer told the Countdown crowd that Jayson Tatum would be involved with this year's Duke team, it has been formally announced that the First Team All-NBA superstar will be Duke's first ever Chief Basketball Officer. This is huge news for the program and prompted the Duke Basketball Roundup team to hop on a pod to talk about it. Tatum makes it clear that he wants to take an active role in the lives and development of the Duke players. Who better to teach you how to reach the very top of the basketball world than a guy who is standing right there at this very moment?After the break, Jason (Evans) and Donald get into a couple other items of note... Jon Scheyer signing a new contract extension to stay in Durham and the train wreck that is Bill Belichick and UNC football. Grab your popcorn and enjoy the latest edition of DBR Bites.

#757 - Countdown Consumes Us

We have Duke Basketball to discuss! Donald and Jason are here on Episode 757 to recap Countdown to Craziness! It was a fun night for Duke Basketball - the men and the women - and we start by recapping all the intros and the surprises from the night…including Jayson Tatum’s appearance! We discuss how he will be “helping” Duke this season. We then get into the basketball, breaking down everyone’s game and how they did. Of course, there’s not a ton to take away from an improvement standpoint, but we definitely have some things to watch out for as the team prepares for their first preseason game in 10 days. We also discuss Duke Football’s comeback win against Cal on the road. The defense came up huge to help Duke storm back and remain undefeated in the ACC. They get some rest before arguably the toughest stretch of their schedule. Make sure you’re following us!

#755 - Duke Squeezes The Orange Of All Its Juice

Duke Football demolished the Syracuse Orange 38-3 over the weekend, and we’re here to react to it on Episode 755! Donald and Jason are here to take you through a recap of the thorough beatdown of the Orange, beginning with the defense pitching a near shutout on the afternoon. Their pride in playing tough defense all the way down to the final series was something to behold. We also get into the offense, led by Nate Sheppard’s more than 200 all-purpose yards. He was a monster with the ball in his hands, and the rest of the offense did great as well. Despite the lopsided score, it wasn’t a perfect game. We get into the stuff to work on as they get ready to head to the West Coast to face Cal next weekend. But, if you look at Duke’s schedule, things are lining up well for them.

#754 - Insights from Media Day

Duke invited the media to come ask questions of the coaches and players this week and the Duke Basketball Roundup was there... ok, not exactly.

Carl sits down with podcast gang to talk about the Q&A that he heard as well as the general vibes around the program these days. Listen in to find out which guys worked hard on their bodies in the off-season and the "secret sauce" that Jon Scheyer says gives Duke a leg up on every other program in the country.
