I know this stuff goes on at all schools, but there's this perception that it doesn't happen at Duke, which is total bull.

Less at Duke than at other schools, no doubt in my mind. Look at what many ex-Duke kids do. Look at what ex-Cinn. and now ex-Kansas State kids do... jail time. Duke is clearly
not the U (Miami) of basketball.
I think its the spoiled rich kid thing. I watch Christian Laettner on the sideline and I see a spoiled rich kid for some reason. Besides, Duke's student fan base invented that pogo hop that now has become the new wave that really gets old.
Duke will be right back next year. A good incoming class.
