It’s truly mind-boggling how bad Duke basketball is this season. It makes no sense at all. They’re not just a mediocre team.
The Blue Devils are straight up terrible, and could lose to any P5 on any given night.

On one hand, it’s a testament to Coach K’s awesome success that his team just fell below .500 for the first time since November 1999.
Obviously, he’s had an unreal amount of success in Durham, which makes the fact they’re not winning now all that much more surprising and disappointing.

Duke fans, who are some of the most unbearable sports fans on the planet, expect national titles. Instead of getting a championship this season, Duke will be lucky to finish with a winning record.

I don’t know how to fix the situation, but Coach K has a mess on his hands.
