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

    #660 - Bear Mauling! Duke dominates Maine in season debut
    Nov 5 2024
    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!
    Nov 4 2024
    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
    Oct 31 2024
    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.

  • #658 - Season Preview: The Stats Game

    #658 - Season Preview: The Stats Game
    Oct 29 2024
    It is a Duke Basketball Roundup tradition, our way of previewing the regular season -- the stats game. And we welcome in an old friend to help us out with the preview -- Sam Klein is back to run the game and tabulate all of Jason and Donald's predictions. Of course, seeing as Sam has not been on the podcast in a while, he's dying to talk and it takes a good 13 minutes to get to the part of the show where we actually begin the season preview by making educated guesses about stuff like -- who will lead Duke in scoring; how many road wins will the team have; how many double-doubles will Cooper Flagg have; how many minutes will Isaiah Evans play; how many different guys will be starters at some point; and (Donald's favorite) how many times will Duke score 100+ points in a game. If you want to join in the fun, feel free to send us your picks in all the categories to DBRPodcast at gmail.com. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

  • #657 - Raining 3s in The Brotherhood Run!

    #657 - Raining 3s in The Brotherhood Run!
    Oct 28 2024
    The Duke Blue Devils defeated the Arizona State Sun Devils Sunday night in The Brotherhood Run charity exhibition, and Scott Rich joins us to help break down all the good that happened on Episode 657. Duke beat Arizona State 103-47 in Bobby Hurley’s first time back in Cameron as a head coach. There was a lot to cover, and Jason, Donald, and Scott go through everything that Duke did well and even some of the things that could have been better. Duke scored 66 points in the second half, which is more than 18 of Duke’s opponents last year had in the entire game. It was led by shooting and, more importantly, by defense. After the break, Jason has to go, but Donald and Scott recap Duke Football’s crushing overtime loss to SMU. Despite 6 takeaways, Duke somehow lost the game. Donald and Scott discuss what went wrong for the Blue Devils and how the game felt like an opportunity to enter the national conversation that was missed. We end with a report of Duke Basketball heading to Vegas in 2027 to face Arizona at the home of the Las Vegas Raiders. Make sure you’re following us!

  • #656 - Surprise commitments and weekend previews

    #656 - Surprise commitments and weekend previews
    Oct 23 2024
    We were expecting Episode 656 to be a lighter one, but the commitment of Nik Khamenia to Duke has us excited!! Yesterday, Jason and Donald were not expecting to see Nik Khamenia pick Duke as his college of choice, but he did! The #19 recruit in the 247 Sports rankings and #35 in the ESPN100, Khamenia is a hooper with a smart game. We discuss what he brings to next year’s Blue Devils and how he could play alongside the Boozer twins. Next up are previews, and we first discuss Duke Men’s Basketball’s upcoming exhibition against the Arizona State Sun Devils. It’s Bobby Hurley’s return to Cameron as a coach, and he brings a squad that has been reloaded with several transfers and one stud freshman. While Duke figures out its combinations, it will be great to see Hurley (and his son) back in Cameron for a nice exhibition. Duke Football has its toughest test of the season to date on Saturday night when they take on the SMU Mustangs. SMU has a prolific offense that puts up over 40 points per game and averages almost a first down every time they snap the ball. We take you through how Duke can pull off the upset over the #22 team in the country. Finally, the NBA season tipped off last night, and once again there are two dozen members of The Brotherhood representing Duke in the Association. We discuss some of the players that changed teams and who we’re keeping an eye on as the season begins. Make sure you’re following us!

  • DBR Bites #64 - Bye Bye Bennett

    DBR Bites #64 - Bye Bye Bennett
    Oct 21 2024
    It is the story that sent shockwaves through the ACC and all of college basketball. Virginia coach Tony Bennett deciding to retire from the game just days before the start of the 2024-25 regular season. The Duke Basketball Roundup crew have many thoughts on what Tony Bennett said about his decision and what he kept quiet. Jason and Donald also weigh in on the timing of Bennett's retirement, leaving his players and his program less than two weeks before the games get underway. After the break, the podcast crew dives into the ACC's preseason awards. Only one Duke name showed up on the All-ACC teams... and how on earth did some no-name freshman from California get a vote for rookie of the year when Cooper Flagg and so many other notable newcomers are out there?
