#553 - The 2023-24 Stats Game!!

Duke Basketball Roundup

The 2023-24 Stats game is upon us, and Sam Klein returns to the show to guide us through it on Episode 553!

Before we get into the Stats Game, we quickly discuss a few topics, including Patrick Ngongba’s commitment to the Duke Blue Devils yesterday. We’re hoping one more 5 star recruit joins the huge number already in the class next season. We also give Sam a chance to reflect on Duke Football becoming bowl eligible using 3 different starting quarterbacks.
