Grayson Allen is a really good basketball player. Athletically gifted with a solid jumpshot, he’s a leading candidate for the ACC POY. He’s got a problem though, controversy keeps surrounding him, and his 2 “alleged” tripping incidents are making him the new poster boy for Duke hate in the line of Christian Laettner and JJ …

A funny thing happened on the way to the college athletic’s landscape that was supposedly headed to the 16 team 4 conference layout back in 2012. The Big 12 and ACC survived. Every major conference has had a college football playoff team, and has achieved huge revenue increases the last few years. Here’s the problem …

I’m not sure ESPN is always that great a partner, but what is the alternative? Please don’t say FOX either. What’s a Duke Bloggers take on the controversial Grayson Allen game …

What is an ACC game that comes down to the final minute, that doesn’t have some controversy? When Duke’s Grayson Allen hit the game winning shot to beat Virginia, I initially thought what a great play with no whistles. Then I watched the replay. Grayson Allen with the floater at the buzzer to win! #UVAvsDUKE …
