This is the most informative Duqesne coach interview I can remember. I think the thing that I found most interesting was that we could see Dixon and Hugley getting minutes on the court together. The Dukes are going to be big and deep this season. Also like what he said about Aekins and Lawson. I don't see how today's news about Max doesn't supersede all the positive things coach said about him in this interview. I don't see how today's news about Max doesn't supersede all the positive things coach said about him in this interview. phil95, I’m pretty sure that coach was well aware of this situation at the time of the interview.

I have no doubt you are correct. I meant to say that, if true, these allegations call into question anything coach had to say about Max's commitment to the success of the program, coach, his teammates, & himself.

I posted my thoughts on this on the other thread before seeing this. It's clear that the coaching staff know both sides. You all don't. Also, this was off campus, so the University has no real over-site about this. Also, the Trib had no business in, after 6 weeks, posting an article about a one-sided police report, without comments from Max to counter it, No one in journalism does that. Sorry, but, Max didn't invite the encounter, she and her friend in a car chose to? We do not have the whole story to step all over Max, nor the Coach. But Coach knows the whole story and kept him on the team. I don't have concerns about Dru. Last edited by NapaDuke (9/21/2025 8:13 am) Thanks CLK. Loved the interview. This team is so loaded and Dru knows it. Should be a fun year. They'll lose a few, but those games will go down to the wire. Sweet sixteen or better.. No A-10 team has close the talent or depth. FACT!

I also don't like the coach making himself look silly/dubious with public praise of his deep bond with a player he knows to be facing serious criminal charges. It is a bad look for the program. Why not just skip over Max as a topic of conversation just to be safe?

I have concerns about Dru if this was recorded after the incident
