The Jon Scheyer interview is completed, and Donald and Jason are still buzzing about it! On Episode 746, they break down some of their favorite portions of their chat with the Duke head coach. First, Emmanuel Dildy has been promoted to associate head coach, and there’s a quick discussion on this move. Then, we get to the full breakdown of the best parts of Jon Scheyer’s comments. We react to Scheyer’s thoughts on the non-conference schedule, Pat Ngongba, Cam Boozer potentially being a point forward, Maliq Brown’s motivational return from his shoulder injury last season, and what Scheyer feels is his best coaching move. It’s great to recap the interview and we’re glad that he gave us so much to think about! Make sure you’re following us!

On episode 745 of the Duke Basketball Roundup, we sit down for an exclusive interview with Duke Men’s Basketball head coach Jon Scheyer!

The Duke Football team begins the 2025 season on Thursday night against Elon, and we’re ready to break down how the team is going to play. But we can’t do it alone. On Episode 744, we are proud to welcome Anna Snyder, the new Duke beat writer for the Fayetteville Observer, to the show! Anna has done an in depth look at the Duke team, and we get to know her and her ties to Duke before she began her role as Duke beat writer just a few weeks ago. We begin with the offense, led by standout transfer Darien Mensah at quarterback. We discuss who the key players will be at each position on the field as the offense tries to move the chains and score points. We get into the defense as well, which is led by preseason All-American Chandler Rivers. We highlight where the key positions will be and how the D will seek to keep their opponents out of the endzone and also try to give the offense short field via stops and takeaways. We then ask

We have another great interview this week on the Duke Basketball Roundup! On episode 743, Donald and Jason sit down with beloved Blue Devil and current Charlotte Hornet Sion James! We first talk about what’s facing Sion in the NBA, asking him questions about being drafted, what it’s like to go through the process with teammate Kon Knueppel, and what he’s been working on to get himself ready for his first season. We then talk to him about his days at Duke and playing on a historic team that got so close to lifting the national championship trophy. We of course ask him about his community service work and what plans he has for the Sion James Foundation now that he’s in the pros. It’s a fun interview, so enjoy it! Make sure you’re following us!

The People’s Champ is back! Episode 742 of the DBR Podcast welcomes back a beloved member of The Brotherhood, Nolan Smith, as Jason and Donald get some time with the new Tennessee State head coach! After leaving Duke, Nolan had stops at Louisville and Memphis before heading to Nashville to take over for the Tigers. We get into the process that led to him becoming their head coach and some of the things he hopes to prioritize as he makes his footprint into the program. We also discuss his quest to find resources for the team and what he’s learned from the coaching trail to prepare him for the job. After the break, we get into some questions from his time as a player at Duke, centering around the 2010 national championship team. We end with a Jon Scheyer story as we celebrate Nolan Smith living out his dream of becoming a head coach. It’s an interview you won’t want to miss! Make sure you’re following us!

Jon Scheyer gave Duke fans a gift when he decided to open up Cameron on Tuesday and let fans watch the team in early August. So, what did we all get from this super early look at the 25-26 Blue Devils? The Duke Basketball Roundup dives into all the intel from the evening. Jason and Donald got plenty of emails from listeners who were in attendance and they bring Carl Heimel of The Vector on to give them his eyewitness report. This is one of those pre-season episodes that cannot be missed!

We’re back with DBR Bites #114 as the Duke Blue Devils prepare for their open practice on Tuesday! Donald and Jason aren’t able to make it to Durham for the open practice, but those of you in town should go! And, we have some homework for you...let us know what you saw from the practice! How is our team looking? What were some of the takeaways? Email us at DBR Podcast at Gmail dot com to let us know! After the break, we get into some football as the ACC preseason poll was released this week and Duke was picked by the media to finish 6th in the conference. We talk about how they have a good shot to really factor into the ACC championship discussion and, by proxy, hopefully emerging onto the national stage with some luck. Make sure you’re following us!

We’re back with DBR Bites #113, where we had plans to continue our discussion of some news items...until breaking news came down. Donald and Jason begin their discussion with the report from a few days ago that power conferences had agreed to a deal that would allow for the clearinghouse created by the House settlement to proceed with approving more deals by NIL collectives. However, a few minutes into that discussion, news broke of a new order that would turn that agreement on its head. We react to the breaking news and what it could mean for the whirlwind that is the NIL marketplace. After the break (and a chance to collect our breath), we get into some new rules changes by the ACC that are meant to curtail court/field storming and the influence of gambling in the game. We end with a fun exercise on college football programs and their perceived valuations if they were pro teams. Stick around to see where Duke end up on that list. Make sure you’re following us!

Lots of little stuff makes for a packed episode of DBR Bites. Jason and Donald begin by talking about two very exciting exhibitions Duke will play in this October as the team prepares for the regular season. After that, the guys dive into a beloved member of the Brotherhood who has joined the ever expanding rank of Duke head coaches at the college level. And, in the back half of the episode, the guys take us on a trip to the Nike Peach Jam to break down some of the big names who could be the first high-profile members of the Duke freshman class of 2026.

We asked and you answered. We put you in control and this is what you did. Today Jason and Donald present the final episode of our look at the Duke Fan Survey that we launched about a month ago. Our final batch of questions have to do with NIL, One and Done, and the Transfer Portal. Have these seismic changes to college basketball changed how you feel about the sport? If you would change them, what would you change? Do you think Duke's strategy for success during these turbulent times is right or would you build the roster differently? The answers... plus all of your general comments when we allowed you to just write whatever you want... on the latest edition of the pod. Enjoy!
