I think that the team will rally around Mr. Jeff Hafley and start to hit its stride under his leadership.

Bet the farm on BC.

I certainly hope you are looking through the same crystal ball you had back in 2014 for USC
Feminism: Eve eats ALL the apples, gives God the middle finder when He confronts her, and has the serpent serve Adam with an injunction ordering him to stay away from her AND to provide her food and shelter because he dragged her out of the Garden.

@TrevorHass
Asked Hafley the latest on Jaden Williams.

"Jaden didn’t practice today. There’s a chance we get him back this week."

Are you able to share if it’s an injury or something else?

"No, I’m not right now. He didn’t practice today."


wonder if this exchange will make the official video

maybe he has the 'vid and haz can't hippa on him. or maybe it's herpes, or chlamydial, or bruised knuckles... this lack of a statement doesn't tell us anything other than he doesn't want to violate the privacy OR RIGHTS of one of his players

Good... they need to know what the hell they have in Morehead. So, give him a (short) week of practice and let's see what he can do in a full game.

My gut tells me BC plays like they did in the Louisville game this week and maybe gets a close W. Our soft and coddled bunch that lacks confidence in their (lack of) preparation, and deer in the headlights coaches, get completely overwhelmed in visiting stadiums. (ex the two visits to Clemson, it's been happening for 3 years now) At home, with the Eagle Walk and some fan support, they get off to a good start, and they never have to think about how far they are from their safe space. BTW, we also match up pretty well with the Dookies.

3-6 baby!

Of course, the worst thing about winning this week is that ppl will "think" we fixed things, and be devastated when we lose by > 20 at each of NC State and Notre Dame.

will all the pot smokers and punch throwers be back this week? until we know the answer to that it will be difficult to predict an outcome.

i think they lose by less than 9 - and i think no one in the world outside of bc and dook alum know it

If Duke actually has a talented and veteran OL and DL, this won't be particularly close.

24-0 Duke feels about right.

Jurk is out. Won’t be surprised if he packs it in for the rest of the season.

Wonder who the back-up QB will be tonight. Might see action after the OL gets Moorehead hurt.

Thamel:
Sources: BC will be without two more offensive linemen against Duke, further depleting a position devastated by injury. Both freshman Jude Bowry and RSF Nick Thomas are out, with Thomas having surgery on his hand.

I hope there is an ambulance there tonight.

The OL is basically in line quality wise with what they have had all year. Bowry has barely played, and Thomas has made like 2% of his blocks.

BC needs to start strong on offense tonight. Getting points on at least one of the first two drives will do wonders for their tenuous confidence. Duke knows they're playing a 2-6 team without their starting QB. Smash them in the mouth. :angrychicken

Our DT got pushed 7 1/2 yards downfield on that running play, saw the loose ball beneath him, but the OL that was pushing him like the sled jumped on it instead.

Exhibit A :bag

Our DL is under-rated atrocious.
