Coach K Hates Fun And Games
A wonderful thing happened in Charlottesville, Va., last night: the Virginia Cavaliers defeated No. 3 Duke, 73-68.

Former Duke Center Brian Zoubek Closes His Cream Puff Shop, Leaves A Sad Note On The Door
Remember when Brian Zoubek opened a cream puff shop in New Jersey and named it Dream Puffz?

Maryland Scores Stunning Upset: Makes Mike Krzyzewski Sound Reasonable
Maryland upset Duke yesterday 83-81 and the students rushed the court after Quinn Cook's desperation half-court shot clanged off the rim.

Now There's A Lehigh Rap Song, And It Refers To Duke As A Safety School
Courtney Leffall (aka DJ Hump) made a deal with fellow Lehigh alumnus Kyle Adams: If the Mountain Hawks beat Duke, Leffall would do a freestyle rap about it. Well, here it is.
