    #856 - Battering Belmont

    We have gotten our first look at the 26-27 Blue Devils playing against someone other than themselves... and it was pretty fun. Duke ran away from a game Belmont team, winning by 40 points and topping the 100-point threshold. The DBR Podcast crew, Jason and Donald, break down everything they saw in the scrimmage. Duke's depth was on full display and it was impressive how little dropoff there was as Duke moved further and further into the rotation. From Jojo and JB scoring in all kinds of ways to Dame locking down on D, this was a great way to begin the campaign. And they did it with two big-time rotation pieces on the bench... imagine what Duke will look like with CFos and Drewski added to the mix!

    #855 - Preparing To Battle Belmont And Wreck Georgia Tech

    Duke Basketball is ready to get their preseason in full effect with a scrimmage against Belmont, and Duke Football gets back to action with a trip to face Georgia Tech. We preview both on Episode 855. Duke Basketball welcomes Evan Bradds back to town as the Bruins come to tango with Duke in a scrimmage. It won’t be like a regular game or even an exhibition, and we discuss what the Bruins bring to the table and how the night might be a bit different than what we’re used to.   We then shift to football, where Duke tries to go 1-0 this week when they head to Atlanta to face the Yellow Jackets. We discuss the down year Georgia Tech has had thus far, but that shouldn’t stop Duke from bringing the chip on their shoulder that has fueled them so far this season. We also have some basketball recruiting news, a note on Duke’s football attendance and how it compares with the rest of the Power 4 teams, and some breaking news that could change how the offseason goes!  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/duke-basketball-roundup--7421881/support.

    #854 - Rippey dynamic as Duke dazzles at Countdown

    Countdown to Craziness was fantastic! We recap the great weekend as Duke Basketball’s preseason kicks off with Episode 854. The weekend was terrific, but the centerpiece was the action on Coach K Court as both the men’s and women’s team played in intrasquad scrimmages. We start out by dissecting the men’s game and who stood out, from Deron Rippey Jr. to Sebastian Wilkins. We go through everyone on the floor who played and how we think they did in their first action in front of the home fans.  We also discuss the women’s game and how Kara Lawson is set for a big year with a healthy lineup of stars. Of course, we have to talk about the intros, the dunk contest, and everything else around the night of Duke Basketball. We end by congratulating August, Jessica, and the DBR Podcast Friends team for being one of the best fundraisers at the Dribble for Victory Against Cancer!  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/duke-basketball-roundup--7421881/support.

    We teased that something special was coming this week, and here it is! On Episode 852, Duke Men’s Basketball head coach Jon Scheyer joins the pod to talk to Donald and Jason on a number of topics! We break our conversation down into several topics, from roster construction and scheduling to this year’s team and the rotations we might see in the preseason and as the season begins. We also touch on the team and play word association with Coach on the incoming freshmen. Finally, we close with what he’s hoping to improve as the preseason gets underway and the future of college basketball, NIL, and the transfer portal as the Protect College Sports Act passes the Senate and awaits its day in the House.

    #851 - Mashing W&M and more hoops scrimmage video

    Duke football continues to roll the opposition, beating William & Mary in a game that had folks going back to the 1940s for comparisons. The Duke Basketball Roundup breaks down what it all means and how things are shaping up for the football devils as they move forward. After the break, there is more preseason info about the basketball Blue Devils for the podcast to dive into. We got some more scrimmage video and, once again, Jason as broken down who scored and how. As always, four minutes of video inspires fourteen minutes of conversation... maybe more. Last but not least, the annual Dribble for Victory over Cancer is coming up in one week on the Duke campus. The entire basketball team will be taking part, meeting fans and taking photos.

    #850 - Duke loses a cherished family member

    On this edition of the Duke Basketball Roundup we have the very difficult task of talking about the passing of Chris Spatola, Coach K's son-in-law and someone who had a profound impact on the Duke program. After serving our nation in the military, Chris coached when Jon Scheyer was at Duke and then became a familiar voice on ESPN broadcasts. This is a hard day for the Duke community. Before dealing with the news about Chris, the DBR Podcast crew spends some time previewing the football contest with William and Mary. Though the oddsmakerssay this one is not going to be a competitive contest, every opponent deservesrespect and there are still things the Duke team needs to work on as it seeks toget to 4-0 on the season.

    #849 - Football lays wood to Stanford

    Well, that was fun. The Duke football team chopped down the Stanford Cardinal to begin the defense of their ACC Title. The Duke Basketball Roundup crew breaks down the many ways Duke dominated this contest, starting with an OLine and RB who made a mockery of Stanford's claim that it boasts a strong run defense. Jason and Donald also look around the ACC a bit to see where Duke's toughest competition will come from in the conference race. After the break. there is a bit of basketball news to discuss. Jon Scheyer gave an in depth interview to national college basketball journalist Jon Rothstein with some fascinating insight into how Schyer is approaching his future at Duke as well as a couple nuggets about what he plans to do with all that depth on the 2026-27 team.  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/duke-basketball-roundup--7421881/support.
