N.C. Highway Patrol spokesman Chris Knight told the News & Observer that Savarino was stopped for a stop sign violation while driving on Brushy Creek Road west of Hillsborough. Savarino is the son of Debbie Krzyzewski Savarino, who is the oldest daughter of Krzyzewski and his wife, Mickie. Debbie Savarino is an assistant athletics director at Duke. Michael Savarino joined the Blue Devils as a walk-on in 2019 and was elevated to a scholarship player this past offseason. He saw his first game action of this season on Friday night, playing four minutes in Duke’s 82-56 win over Army West Point at Cameron Indoor Stadium.

 

Jeezus -- much nepotism going on down there in Durham?

Why in the world would that kid need a scholarship? His family has more money than God, and would guess with Mommy and Gramps on staff, he can probably go to school for a hefty discount -- and if not, they could afford tuition may times over. Give the scholarship to someone who needs it. I'd be willing to bet that little sh-t isn't good enough to play on a Division I team, let alone earning a scholarship to perhaps the country's most elite program. 

All these years later, I still don't understand why Pat Knight was on scholarship. He really was not a B1G-caliber player. I'm willing to excuse that a little more because I believe rosters were allowed 15 scholarships back than -- as opposed to the 13 now -- so it wasn't as "wasted" as it would be today.

Some IU fans would be trying to convince themselves he’s a down-the-road All-B1G caliber starting guard that would “give us fits when he goes to Purdue” if he was from Indiana:

 

HIGH SCHOOL

• Averaged 7.3 points, 3.6 rebounds and 2.9 assists per game as a senior at Durham Academy
• His team went 28-4 in 2018-19
• Played 87 varsity games over his final three seasons, averaging 7.0 points and 3.0 rebounds for his career
• His career averages included 91 percent from the free-throw line and 35 percent from three-point range
• Two-time team captain

I can see this going 1 of 2 ways. Saverino gets the 1 game suspension or they will give him a multi game suspension because he only plays in blow out games and to make it appear K and his mom don't have undue influence.

Should be about 10 games, if not more. It makes me absolutely sick to my stomach at how this country views drunk driving. Personally if I am a coach, you're never playing for me again. I don't care who you are. 

Personally, I think this country views drunk driving very seriously.  

Anyway, at the end of the day they are just kids and nobody got hurt which is the really important thing.  They either learn from it or they don't.

Abd that right there is part of the problem. "Well no one got hurt so it's whatever. Learn from it."

  The law deals harshly with DUI's even when no one gets hurt.

It needs to be harsher.

It should be zero tolerance. Drive under the influence, get your license taken away.

Please take this to the “appropriate punishment for a DUI” thread, which should exist in a PM discussion.

 Thanks

It’ll be fun just watching the scum at Duke sweat. Ultimately I expect very little action to be taken against K grandson and the best player on the team.

Not picking on you, but what makes you think guys will quit driving if their license is suspended? One of the framing crew that built my house got caught driving with suspended license for the THIRD time. 

Back to the game....

USC and Andy Enfield are playing a road game at Dunk city.   I think he got inducted into the schools HOF.   Pretty cool he is playing a road game. 
 

FGCU is up 5 early

More importantly, how is Andy's wife looking these days?
