Offline 7:00pm EST tip on Tuesday 1/16/2024 at the UPMC Cooper Fieldhouse, Pittsburgh, PA Offline It's really hard to imagine the Dukes winning this one. Offline We'll see what the guys are thinking and feeling tonight. Effort and good ball, or total junk. Offline Offline I am so confused how the Dukes could be favored against Dayton & then Richmond. Offline
Offline If the Dukes go down against Richmond & St. Joes this week I am afraid Coach Dambrot has clearly hit the Tomlin Zone. Offline This has to be a must-win game correct? Offline Dae Dae OUT from injury in practice Sunday. Offline -I hope Dae Dae is okay Offline Great start, we looked locked in. Especially defensively. Keep it up Dukes Offline Gotta love “our” announcers blabbering on and on about the opponent. Offline Mahorcic looked like LeBron on the and 1. Offline I like the lineup. Tre Williams has been great so far. Clark and Rozier are having a good night so far. Let's hope they add to the led in second half. Offline Great energy from the Dukes! The offense also looks more polished than it has. It would have been very easy to come out flat without Dae Dae & after the poor start to the conference season. Offline This team is much more efficient and patient without Grant in the lineup. Offline Am I allowed to complain about the officiating? These last 2 minutes have been wild. Offline Dimichele grabs the ball as clean as you can. Foul? Dambrot calls a timeout when Dixon has possession. Their ball? The guy throws the ball into Rozier’s back. Foul on Rozier? Offline Quinn clears out Dixon on Bailey’s drive to prevent the help. Illegal. Of course refs swallow their whistle. Is this our home court? Offline We might see an all time Dambrot post game today. Not an intentional foul on Quinn? Wildwood, have you watched this? Offline Same old Dukes! Offline That's the worst attempt at missing a free throw on purpose that I've ever seen. Offline What a damned shame. Our guys battled all game and those three excuses of officials robbed it from them in the last five minutes. I hope Dambrot tells it like it is in the postgame. I would personally contribute to a gofundme for whatever fine comes out of Dambrot speaking the truth. These types of robberies can make or break a season. Rally around the disrespect Dukes! Keep fighting, we have a good team. Clearly were the better team today. Offline Too many missed opportunities. Clark needs to make those FT's. This game should be in OT right now. Offline What a joke. Nobody should show up to watch these losers. Stop giving this team your money. If you have tickets, sell them to opposing fans. Something has to change, maybe a mass exodus of fan support will do that.

Hoping we have a game-plan in place.

-This gives someone else an opportunity
-Like Mike Tomlin, if Dambrot loses tonight he needs to think about whether he wants to be here next year. He has been a plus for the team, is a great and kind guy, but hasn't ever gotten them to an NIT or NCAA. No Anger or Vitrol, just facts. If one can't handle the facts...
Go Dukes

I would like to see 1 or 2 ATO/inbound plays put in to get Rozier corner 3s. His percentage is nice & forcing the opponents' defense to pay him more mind would be great.
