    DBR Bites #59 - Duke Claims 2OT Victory at the Lake House
    Sep 8 2024
    On DBR Bites #59, we recap Duke’s victory over Northwestern on the edge of Lake Michigan! Duke won 26-20 in a 2OT affair in Evanston, and there were some good and ugly parts about the whole game. Donald and Jason begin by resurrecting a fan favorite for basketball games: Headlines! We’ll be accepting them for football games as well, so don’t forget to email us at dbrpodcast@gmail.com with your headlines after each football game moving forward! We then get into what we liked and disliked about the game, and there were some key plays on offense and defense that led to Duke’s comeback win. No matter how ugly the game felt for the first 3.9 quarters, they were able to get to overtime and then win it with some key plays from our wide receivers. We also sing praises to the defense for keeping Duke in the game with some great plays and once again getting tackles in the backfield at a tremendous clip. After the break, the rest of the ACC had an up-and-down week, but there were some teams that had wins against P4 conference opponents that were noteworthy. The ACC needs to continue to get wins against the SEC, Big Ten, and Big 12 to help the conference when it comes time for the playoff and also some of these other bowl games.

  • DBR Bites #58 - Friday Night Lakeview Football!

    DBR Bites #58 - Friday Night Lakeview Football!
    Sep 3 2024
    Duke Football is back on the field Friday night, and we preview their game against the Northwestern Wildcats on DBR Bites #58! Northwestern is in some new temporary digs right on the edge of Lake Michigan, and that will be the stage for a Friday night game against Duke. Donald and Jason begin the preview by discussing what we will see from Northwestern’s players. They’re led by a quarterback in Mike Wright that’s a dual threat option, throwing the ball in the air and leading the Wildcats in rushing in Week 1. There are some other skill players on the offensive and defensive sides of the football that Duke will focus on, but Northwestern hopes to combine options with quick throws to move the ball down the field. After the break, we discuss some of the things Duke needs to do well in order to win on the road, and it starts with establishing the run. Duke wants to improve on their rushing performance against Elon, as that could open up the rest of the offense. On defense, Duke will hope to contain Wright, particularly on the run, and force their offense off the field. Our offense can move the ball quickly and can tire out Northwestern’s defense. Finally, Jason and Donald predict that a pair of Duke’s experienced wideouts could have a big night and it’s one of the keys to Duke getting the win in Evanston. Make sure you’re following us!

    #645 - Football Eliminates Elon
    Sep 1 2024
    The Manny Diaz era got off to a great start at Duke walloped the Elon in this season's opening game. The Duke Basketball Roundup gives you a complete breakdown of what happened in the contest and it all starts with the dominant defense on display from Duke. Donald and Jason both want to talk about how many times Duke stopped the Phoenix with a sack or a tackle for loss. On the offensive side of the ball, Maalik Murphy was airing it out in a way we rarely see from Duke QBs, showing off his arm strength on his way to nearly 300 yards passing. After the break, Jason and Donald spend a bit of time on basketball. Duke Blue Planet has released its first episode of the season with a look at the Brotherhood Games, an Olympic-style competition that was dominated by CFos, K2, and Stanley Borden. There is a sentence we did not expect to write this year. The DBR Pod also dives into a bit of recruiting news as the Boozer twins were on campus this weekend. Will two of the most coveted recruits in the land pick the same school as their father or do they want to char their own path? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    #644 - Flagg's Bag
    Aug 28 2024
    Cooper Flagg has scored what is said to be one of the biggest endorsement deals ever for a kid who has not even played a second of college basketball, signing with New Balance, a company with deep ties to his home state of Maine. On the latest edition of the Duke Basketball Roundup, Jason and Donald take a look at Flagg's bag (of money) and what qualities it is that make him such an attractive player. The guys also get into the remarkable story of how Khaman Maluach ended up at Duke and how a coin flip that Duke lost plays into the decision. And, after the break, it is time for us to preview the first game of the football season as Duke takes on Elon. The Manny Diaz era is here and we are super psyched for it!

    DBR Bites #57 - Bobby Hurley's coming to Cameron!
    Aug 26 2024
    We’re back with a few topics on DBR Bites #57! Jason and Donald are super excited...Bobby Hurley is returning to Duke! Duke will play a charity exhibition against Arizona State in what will be the first trip to Cameron for Hurley as a coach. They’ve known this was in the works, but now we get to finally celebrate Hurley’s return to campus. Jason and Donald also discuss Duke Women playing a multi-team event in Vegas around the same time the men will be there. It sets up nicely for fans traveling to see both our teams play. On the other hand, the NIL tournament that is being set up in Vegas is in some serious danger due to the NCAA dropping some warnings about what is allowed and not allowed with regards to “pay for play” NIL. After the break, Bryce Davis has flipped his football commitment from Clemson to Duke, becoming one of the most heralded recruits in Duke Football history. We discuss the ramifications of this level of recruit coming to Durham. We end with the reports that UConn could be once again trying to find a new home with the Big XII.

  • #643 - Non-con Schedule Released

    #643 - Non-con Schedule Released
    Aug 18 2024
    Duke has released the non-conference schedule for the 2024-25 Blue Devils and it is full of compelling and challenging matchups. The latest edition of the Duke Basketball Roundup takes a deep dive into the sked -- not just the marquis games against teams like Kentucky and Kansas, but also what Duke faces in some of the smaller teams like George Mason and Incarnate Word. After the break, Jason and Donald play a little draft game -- pick a team (5 starters plus a sub) from the best players of the past half-decade of Duke hoops (2020-2024). Jason's first pick may surprise you but there is sound logic behind it. However, his pick allows Donald to jump on the guy who is almost certainly the best Duke player of the past 5 years. Back and forth they go... which team do you think is best? Send us emails at DBRPodcast at gmail-dot-com with your thoughts. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

    #642 - Exclusive Conversation with Coach Jai Lucas!!
    Aug 15 2024
    No one knows what is happening inside Duke basketball like the coaching staff... and the Duke Basketball Roundup is thrilled to present our conversation with Jon Scheyer's top assistant, Coach Jai Lucas. Jai gives us a candid, insiders view of how the team is shaping up for the 2024-25 season including exclusive details on why Kon Knueppel is wowing everyone and what it is about Cooper Flagg that makes him different from other trop recruits. We also discuss the changing landscape of recruiting and NIL as Jai explains why Duke has not gotten any early recruiting wins thus far and the impact of the transfer portal on high school recruiting. We also hear from Coach Lucas about the roles and responsibilities of the entire coaching staff, which teams he is looking out for in the ACC next season, and we get a good story about just how competitive Jon Scheyer actually is. This is an episode of the podcast that is not to be missed so tell your friends to make sure they all have a listen.

  • #641 - Is Duke's experience the key to success?

    #641 - Is Duke's experience the key to success?
    Aug 7 2024
    We are live with Episode 641 as we welcome Scott Rich to the show to help us navigate some interesting topics! Jason is out on vacation, but thankfully Scott is here to take us through some topics with Duke Blue Devils Basketball. First, Duke’s experience has been a topic of conversation all summer long. But how does it rank among Duke teams from previous years? Pretty well, actually! We discuss some of the data and whether it means that Duke will be successful this season. We also learned that Duke has another confirmed game on the non-conference schedule, as Wofford will be coming to town on November 16th. It adds to what is shaping up to be a pretty awesome schedule with some really tough tests for Duke. Scott and Donald are pretty happy with what Jon Scheyer is trying to do in scheduling some of these teams. After the break, we switch to the gridiron, as the ACC preseason poll was released. Duke was picked to finish 11th in the conference, and we discuss whether it is a reasonable place or if Duke should get more love. Also, Kenny Blakeney is hoping to raise some money for the Howard basketball program, and he’s doing it in an outside-the-box way: offering 1/3 of the program for $100 million. We discuss on whether he will be able to do it and what this creative idea would mean for not just the HBCUs, but also mid-major and low-major programs in college sports. We end by congratulating Lindsey Harding and Mistie Bass-Boyd for making moves to new positions in the NBA. Harding will serve as an assistant coach for the Los Angeles Lakers under head coach JJ Redick, while Trajan Langdon has hired Bass-Boyd to the front office of the Detroit Pistons. We love that they’re getting opportunities to make their mark in the Association. Make sure you’re following us!
