Maybe feeling a touch disrespected, again...

Keion's new school LaLumiere has canceled it's next Tuesday game with SPIRE Institute and its new enrollee LaMelo Ball because he played professionally, albeit in Lithuania..

I think less than 0.0000001% of their decisions will be based on how we do against Dook.

I can’t imagine that individual game holding that much weight but it, along with beating Marquette and Arkansas would make us a top 5/10 team and amplify the hype and talk around our program

With Duke looking like an NBA team this year (in terms of pure athleticism and skill) more than any year I can recall, the percentage of Indiana beating Duke on their own court is...well, I'll just say it's at least better than the percentage you gave that their decisions are based on such a win.  I hate to even say it, but Duke is scarier than ever this year...in my opinion.  It would be incredible to see Indiana knock off Duke early.  They were good last year and Indiana gave them a good test.  Anything is possible.

And, yes, I saw them struggle to shake off Army.  After a destruction of #2 Kentucky, along with their youth, I think the fact they did scares me as much as the win against UK.  Duke seems to know how to pull away when the game is a contest.  Unfortunately, I believe the contests won't be as often as I hope.  Yes, they will likely lose this season (hopefully against Indiana), but by the time March comes around it will be very hard to bet against that team. 

Ugh...I hate that this seems so real in my head as I type it.  I would love to see Duke have at least a few losing seasons and become a dark horse again.

Okay, I feel slightly better after re-watching the Romeo Langford vs Zion Williamson YouTube videos.

Not about Keion...but surprised the article doesn't even list us as contenders for Hurt as he's taken an unofficial here and has repeatedly kept us in his top 7 ish.
