I know I am probabally in the minority nation wide and probabally in here, but I am and always have been a HUGE Duke fan and am looking for good things from them this year with Singler, Scheyer, and Nolan Smith coming back to lead them.

There is a good amount of us here. Really looking forward to this season with the guys we got coming back, the Plums down low, and the addition of Dawkins. Looking for a huge year out of Smith, I think he'll be the secondary scorer with Jon at the point.

I've been a Duke fan since the early 80's when Dawkins, Bilas, Henderson, and Alerie were sophomores. Anyone have connections at Duke? Would love to see a game in Cameron!

Keys is a huge Douche fan. I meant Duke. Freudian slip.

I'm a UNC fan and have family that lives up there that got me tickets to the UNC-Duke game in Chapel HIll a couple years ago. Best basketball experience of my life. I wanted to get tickets for the game in Cameron but could only get it at UNC.

I don't understand why people think I'm a bandwagon fan when the only really successful team I like is L.A.

DUKE is working on an AWESOME 2010 signing class. They just got one of the top PG's in the nation in Kyrie Irving and are working on the top SF in the nation Harrison Barnes.

While there are obviously a ton of people who really don't like Duke, I would guess that behind UNC, Kansas, and a couple of other schools, Duke has more fans than just about any other school.

And yes, I am a big Duke fan and have been for a long time (even before I went there). I think that the early enrollment of Dawkins will really help out with depth, and I believe that Duke will finish in the top 2 in the ACC. Nationally though, I only see them as a Sweet 16-type team this year.

I also pull for Duke whenever LSU is not playing them.. My favorite player was Langdon from a few years back. Just saw they picked up some big recruit the other day on espn.

Duke fan here. This year will be interesting. It will be very different style of play. This team is contructed way differently than any Duke team recently. Our guard play is very thin and we are extremely tall, usually its the opposite.

The following year Duke will be stacked. Natl Championship..Book it.
