What should people be talking about? Duke has a core trio of Jefferson/Kennard/Tatum along with Allen that can carry them deep in March.
What’s next for these teams? Duke awaits their seed for the NCAA Tournament. They are likely to open in Greenville, SC. Notre Dame awaits their seed which is likely going to be in the 4-5 range.

But real talk, I’ve seen Duke play 20+ times in person this year. This team doesn’t look familiar right now.

“8 is wild”: We had a great time the last 6 days in Brooklyn. Last night was the last night of media hospitality the ACC hosted and of course the SportsChannel8 gang owned it.
