I see Matt isn't here so it is prime time to start a Duke hate thread.
Let me state for the record that Matt and Randy are good Duke fans.
However, most of the Duke fans I have encountered are bandwagoners. They have no affiliation with the school or state of NC.
I hate how Duke is constantly rated very highly each year when they aren't good sometimes. I hate how Duke seems to always play First and second round NCAA tourney games in North Carolina (2 years ago was the exception).
Lastly, I hate Duke Vitale all over Coach K's nuts each bball season.
and Duke fans, don't reply with 'jealousy'!

1. The fans (excluding matt, randy, toolbox, and the very few other good ones). 2. The NCAA playing favorites (i.e. no punishment over the Corey Maggette situation, among many others) 3. CBS and ESPN (Billy Packer, Dukie V) 4. Coach K, in that he prenteds to be a saint on TV, yet curses like a sailor on the sidelines, and quit on his team in 95. 5. Always seeded high, no matter what their record is (see #2) 6. Duke fans think 1995 never existed (See #1 and #4)

I don't really hate Duke, but I don't like them. I respect their program has been built up over the past 20 some years. They have fielded some good teams. Kentucky fans have to get over "The Shot". I dislike the fact that they are seeded too high each year in the NCAA and I think that the rest of the ACC could help the situation by beating them more often. They aren't usually that good guys. And lastly, Daddy and Granddaddy went to Duke so that is why I went to Virginia! LOL

I use to LOVE Duke, up until 1988…
I started hating them when a lot of coaches held players back from trying out for the ’88 Olympic team…I thought Danny Ferry and Sean Elliott would have helped out a lot…But these two had injuries…I think Elliott was recovering from knee injury, so him not going to the try-outs might have been legit…But Danny Ferry’s injury was really mysterious…
So the U.S. team went to the ’88 games with an incomplete team…they had Augmon, Henry Williams and Dan Majerle…but that was pretty much it as far as perimeter play…and I think Henry Williams or another of the perimeter players got hurt...
They lost to the Russians who had Sabonis, Kukoc, Marciolonis(sp), Petrovic and a few others…
Plus they’re a very conservative university and they’ve done some things in the past to Black students and employees that were pretty bad…

I'm back!!!. I thought I'd share why I like Duke. I really only have an association with the school by growing up in NC and then by marrying into the Dukies. I guess it was when Jim Spanarkle and Mike Giminski played that I first started to like Duke. Randy actually taught me to Hate UNC. I used to like them too! I can see why folks hate them(Duke) and all the other stuff aside, the main ingrediant is the recent success and the media's love affair with them. All the OTHER reasons stems from that.
The fans being dix and the media Love affair and the High seeds in the Tourny which aids in there success. UNC had it like that for a while but Duke has maintained it for 2 decades now.
I mean Kansas Fans are Dix and so are Maryland fans(Perhaps the worst). Imagine how they would be acting if they had done what Duke has done over the last 15 years.
Dickie V doesn't LOVE Duke that's a misperception. he loves whoever is on top and stays out of trouble.

Maryland fans are pretty effing bad! No doubt about it. Kansas has some bad fans too. UK has some really bad fans. It just seems around tourney time, that they are more bad duke fans than other schools.

[ Maryland fans are pretty effing bad! No doubt about it. Ok, you have to explain that. Also, compared to who?? Clemson fans, in general, are definately the best people. But if we're talking ACC schools, UMD fans are better people than UVA, Duke, Miami, and UNC fans, easliy. Lets not even get started on WVU fans and the schools like that. If we're talking commitment Maryland belongs right up there with the best fans in the country. If we're talking knowledge, than Maryland fans are not nearly as knowledgeable as Kentucky fans, for example. But much more knowledgeable than most schools, especially Duke and UVA.

I hate everything about Duke including Matt, Randy, and those other tools.
LOL I have no idea who those dudes are...
Anyways, I used to like Duke but now have a new found appreciation for them because of my Pats. They carry themselves with class which may rub some people the wrong way. Actually the fans get so creative that they seem to preppy to be honest with ya.

Who am I kidding? I despise them, and I have no reason except for that I am an asshole.
