A Look Back As Jay Bilas Eulogizes The Late Tom Emma
We were poking around the Web Sunday, and we looked up Phil Henderson after seeing the Duke-Arkansas Final Four game from 1991. Henderson of course died young of a heart attack in 2013. He was just 44. That reminded us of the sad story of Tom Emma, who was a Bill Foster recruit who helped […]
YouTube Gold: Duke’s 1998 Cameron Win Over UNC
The Duke-UNC rivalry, like any rivalry, has its ups and downs, but the ups are really something.

Twitter Gold: Grant Hill & Rick Pitino Discuss The 1992 Duke-UK Classic
It’s amazing that the 1992 Duke-Kentucky Elite Eight game is still talked about, but it was a phenomenal contest. Obviously, what people remember is Christian Laettner’s astonishing winning shot. It’s become legend, and rightly so. The whole play was incredible, from Grant Hill’s long, looping pass to Laettner, to his presence of mind to fake […]
Modern ACC Scheduling Sucks
The ACC released the 2026-27 conference opponents on Thursday, and the first thing you realize is this: the unbalanced schedule sucks, has always sucked, and always will suck.

YouTube Gold: “Yes, I Am”
Possibly the best Coach K ad, and certainly the funniest, was one that he did for Bud Light that ran during the 1994 NCAA tournament. The basic gag was that this character saw three limo drivers at the airport with a sign that read Krzyzewski, which he naturally mispronounced. He asks if any of the […]
YouTube Gold: Reliving Laettner
When you talk about the NCAA tournament and you say The Shot, everyone knows what you mean: you mean the dramatic overtime-buzzer beater that Christian Laettner hit to beat Kentucky in 1992.

You Tube Gold: Coach K Ad Week
Mike Krzyzewski has many gifts, but one that’s key to the rest is time management.

YouTube Gold: Scheyer The Player
Jon Scheyer has had such a remarkable turn as a still-young head coach – remember, he’s just 38 – that his playing career tends to get overlooked, and that’s a shame, because Scheyer had a heck of a career at Duke. Scheyer finished just two points behind Gene Banks and Jason Williams as the 10th […]
