Welcome to SHOO-SHOO, RAH-RAH! The Duquesne Dukes Basketball Fan Message Board!
One of America's Great Message Boards - Any Inappropriate Posts Will Be Deleted!
Big one!! I really like this team. This group, this coaching staff. Why didn't they call TO after the missed free throw on the sequence Weathers went to the hoop when they needed a 3? Am I missing something? Carry was excellent at the end. Keep taking those 3's. Waiting to see if they lose to St. Bonaventure. Thanks for the heads up on the Student Section FAM. Steele had a nice game. Why do you guys even respond to that troll? 2 points from the bench. Love the recognition but Vitale doing a Duke game is a brutal. Can't wait for Wednesday and Fordham at the Paints. Glad I attended. " holier than thou" ? What's wrong with being closed on Sunday's? Is the game at Ellet H.S ? That is one beautiful list! Thanks for the heads up. I watched the last 10 minutes or so. Love the balanced scoring. Been to the three games. Agree CLK. It's a sewer. The deck is stacked against mid-Majors thanks to ESPN,FOXSports, CBS and Nike. The Utomi kid from Akron can shoot it. Glass half full for me. First home game I have missed all year. Took care of the ball... The Trib website is a joke.
CONGRATULATIONS COACH DRU JOYCE III

Really happy for the entire program.
See you Friday!!Men's Basketball » Game Thread - VCU Rams » 3/03/2020 4:48 pm
A top 4 in the A-10 would be great but tonight is going to be tough.
I don't care how many injuries VCU has.Men's Basketball » Game Thread - George Washington Colonials (H) » 2/19/2020 10:47 pm

I thought they were still under the basket.
The turnout and atmosphere for the Dayton game was excellent.
Friday night I was at the Kent State-Akron game. Great rivalry, a great game and a sellout.
I guess I was hoping/ expecting too much for La Salle.
Keep winning. It will happen!

Good to see Norman hit some 3's.
Coach said Rotroff was ill so they only went with 7.
Hopefully he's ready for St. Louis . That will be a physical game.

He adds nothing to the conversation .
He just lurks waiting for a loss so he can gloat.

I was at the Kent State-Central Michigan game.
Followed DU-GW on my phone.
ESPN+ uses local folks for all of their telecasts.
One of my son's buddies at Kent does color for all the Kent State ESPN+ games.Men's Basketball » Game Thread - Davidson Wildcats » 1/05/2020 9:25 pm
Relentless defense, didn't fold when Davidson got their offense going.
Norman's 3 was a monster.
Austin does not seem to get flustered. Did not let the airballs impact his defense.
They are as tough mentally as they are physically.Men's Basketball » The Coop and RMU's UPMC » 1/04/2020 9:28 am

Steele is a beast. No way he will shoot 3's the way he did against Princeton......
But he will defend, rebound and run the floor. Relentless.
Really looking forward to see how the three games next week go.Men's Basketball » Eric Williams leaving » 4/09/2019 1:00 pm
You can spin it any way you want but Williams transfer is a gut punch. Don't think for one minute he wasn't contacted by a P5. Mid-Majors are now the Altoona Curve for the big boys and the big money.
I also follow Ohio U and Kent State. ( my kids go there) and in the past two years both programs have had established players " transfer" to Michigan, Xavier and Illinois. I'm sick of it but as long as the P5 get their players and their money from the networks and shoe companies the NCAA doesn't give a crap.
Men's Basketball » All Quiet on the Western Front? » 4/02/2019 9:57 am
Saw him play at Kent State last month.
He would be a nice addition.Men's Basketball » My thoughts » 3/15/2019 8:16 am
10 Conference wins and the ongoing process of changing the culture.
The injuries to Rotroff and Kelly really hurt. Didn't have much depth to begin with.
It's not going to happen overnight.
I'd like to see a stronger non-Conference schedule next year.
Nothing outrageous. I'd love to see a Big East team or two.Men's Basketball » Game Thread - University of Massachusetts Minutemen » 3/02/2019 7:15 pm
My son's lacrosse season began today.......family!
All things considered ,man am I proud of these kids, the coaching staff and the loyal fans.
You folks have been Duquesne hoops fan MUCH longer than I have.
I admire your loyalty and your tenacity.
This program is relevant. It is real and it is only going to get better.
I will take "ugly" wins like today. Imagine that...we are calling wins " ugly".
Let's steal one against the Billikens and sell Palumbo out for Dayton!

Forced turnovers...
Better at the FT line...
Tenacious on the boards...
Where were the students at noon on a Saturday?
No disrespect to the kids who were there.Men's Basketball » Poor journalism at the basic level » 2/11/2019 9:30 am
They too are in a transition period politically ( opposite of the Post-Gazette) but I'll stick to sports.
Aside from Benz they seem to be staffed by a bunch of high school level writers.
It's amateur hour and news/sports they don't " cover" they supplement with Associated Press filler.
I emailed their sports department Saturday night to remind them that "Duquesne has a basketball team."
