    #853 - Let the Countdown begin!
    Oct 2 2026
    We’re back with Episode 853 as we get ready for the official start of Duke Basketball with Countdown to Craziness! Countdown always marks the official start of the preseason, and Donald and Jason couldn’t be more excited for all the festivities. Of course, it all begins on Friday with the annual Dribble for Victory over Cancer! We are partnering with August, a young cancer survivor who has formed a team to unite all DBR Podcast listeners. Please follow this link and make a donation as we try to get August over his goal: https://charity.pledgeit.org/PCRF-DukeDribble/teams/@DBRPodcastFriends. We also discuss what we want to see at Countdown, whether it’s the dunk contest, the matchups, or the competition. Both the men’s and women’s teams are going to put on a show, and we can’t wait. We also got #AnotherOne! Luke Paul commits to Duke during our recording, so we discuss what the 6’6” Aussie will bring to Durham next year. He has a lot of potential and we’re thrilled to have him come in to compete with the rest of the point guards.

    #852 - Coach Scheyer joins the pod!
    Sep 29 2026
    We teased that something special was coming this week, and here it is! On Episode 852, Duke Men’s Basketball head coach Jon Scheyer joins the pod to talk to Donald and Jason on a number of topics! We break our conversation down into several topics, from roster construction and scheduling to this year’s team and the rotations we might see in the preseason and as the season begins. We also touch on the team and play word association with Coach on the incoming freshmen. Finally, we close with what he’s hoping to improve as the preseason gets underway and the future of college basketball, NIL, and the transfer portal as the Protect College Sports Act passes the Senate and awaits its day in the House. Don’t forget the annual Dribble for Victory over Cancer is coming up on Friday!

    #851 - Mashing W&M and more hoops scrimmage video
    Sep 27 2026
    Duke football continues to roll the opposition, beating William & Mary in a game that had folks going back to the 1940s for comparisons. The Duke Basketball Roundup breaks down what it all means and how things are shaping up for the football devils as they move forward. After the break, there is more preseason info about the basketball Blue Devils for the podcast to dive into. We got some more scrimmage video and, once again, Jason as broken down who scored and how. As always, four minutes of video inspires fourteen minutes of conversation... maybe more. Last but not least, the annual Dribble for Victory over Cancer is coming up in one week on the Duke campus. The entire basketball team will be taking part, meeting fans and taking photos.

    #850 - Duke loses a cherished family member
    Sep 23 2026
    On this edition of the Duke Basketball Roundup we have the very difficult task of talking about the passing of Chris Spatola, Coach K's son-in-law and someone who had a profound impact on the Duke program. After serving our nation in the military, Chris coached when Jon Scheyer was at Duke and then became a familiar voice on ESPN broadcasts. This is a hard day for the Duke community. Before dealing with the news about Chris, the DBR Podcast crew spends some time previewing the football contest with William and Mary. Though the oddsmakerssay this one is not going to be a competitive contest, every opponent deservesrespect and there are still things the Duke team needs to work on as it seeks toget to 4-0 on the season.

Jon Scheyer gave an in depth interview to national college basketball journalist Jon Rothstein with some fascinating insight into how Schyer is approaching his future at Duke as well as a couple nuggets about what he plans to do with all that depth on the 2026-27 team.
