SOCIAL MEDIA

Duke revolutionizes recruiting through social media

By Shane Smith Blue Zone Editor

Zion Williamson electrified the sold-out crowds of Cameron Indoor Stadium with his awe-inspiring dunks during his lone season at Duke.

For the 9,314 in attendance, it was magical, and for the millions of fans not as lucky to witness it live, they were still lucky enough to catch a glimpse almost as soon as the ball hit Coach K Court.

Oh, the power of modern social media.

Whether it’s fueled by love, hate or a combination of both, Duke men’s basketball has skyrocketed over the last 30 years to become the most recognizable brand in college basketball. That’s something Creative Director David Bradley has ran with, as he and his staff have elevated the social media presence.

Bradley graduated from Duke in 2004 and has been on staff for 15 years, two of which spent in his current role.

“It’s a sign of the times. I think we were a little bit ahead of it, especially Dave Bradley, who runs it,” Blue Devil head coach Mike Krzyzewski said. “We try to stay as current as possible, but tastefully. We can have social media, but you better have something to social media about.”

‘What we’re all looking for’ Bradley has found plenty of ways to market Duke’s stars of the last decade and help turn the program’s image into

a successful social media following that grosses over $45 million in brand value each year, according to GoDuke.com.

Around 2007, Duke Blue Planet video blogs were introduced, giving fans an inside look at the life of a Duke basketball player. The program’s recent utilization of “#TheBrotherhood” has helped bring in a host of new activity, with Bradley and his staff running with the premise that 40 years of players under Krzyzewski all share a special bond. In 2018, all of the program’s social media accounts relaunched under a unified handle, @DukeMBB, to make the accounts more accessible.

“I think Duke’s social media is the best in the country, regardless of sports, honestly,” current Blue Devil Cassius Stanley said.

“It’s the best, top of the notch. Everybody’s involved in it. I think it’s just so well thought out, and everyone in there is looking for the next thing. I think that’s what we’re all looking for too, everyone who is involved in social media and the generation now is always looking for the next.”

As much as the social media pages are tailored to giving the Cameron Crazies more access to their favorite players, the reality is that out of @DukeMBB’s 1.2 million Instagram followers and 2.2 million Twitter followers, the content has a very specific purpose in helping the program—reaching the dozen or so recruits that Krzyzewski and his staff are targeting in each class.

With some of the best facilities, amenities

and access in all of sports, Duke has used its social media as a huge recruiting tool and is a big reason why the Blue Devils have secured a top-two class nationally each of the last six years, according to ESPN. It’s also worth noting that Bradley’s official page on GoDuke.com says he “assists the coaching staff in recruiting.”

‘We’re going to put you out there’ Stanley was the last of the four freshmen to announce his intent to come to Duke, and although the Blue Devils didn’t enter the race for the four-star recruit until late, the allure of the Duke brand was a key component in bringing Stanley to Durham. The Los Angeles native even cited the program’s social media following as a factor in his decision when he committed in April.

“I was definitely looking at Duke’s page because how could you not?” Stanley explained.

“Especially this past year, it was everywhere. I was just noticing the little things like watching some of the Duke Blue Planet episodes before I committed and just getting a feel for how they handled things.”

‘TOUGH TO PASS UP’

Point guard Tre Jones brings aggressiveness, leadership to Blue Devils in Year 2

By Michael Model Associate Sports Editor

With seven characters, Tre Jones sent the Duke faithful into a frenzy.

“Year 2?”—Jones captioned an Instagram post April 6.

The next day, the Apple Valley, Minn., native struck again, posting a picture of his uniform hanging in his locker, captioned with a blue heart and the crossed fingers emoji.

Less than 48 hours after the first post and eight days after the end of the Blue Devils’ 201819 campaign, it was official—Jones would be back manning the point for his sophomore season. Despite passing up an opportunity to be a likely first-round pick in the 2019 NBA Draft, the decision to return to Durham did not take much thought.

“It was a pretty easy decision for myself to make to come back here. There is no place like Duke,” Jones said during Duke’s preseason media day. “As far as basketball goes, to be able to play for the greatest coach again and to be able to be with a group of guys like this, it’s tough to pass up…. It wasn’t a tough decision for myself. I knew pretty early after the season what I wanted to do and there was no reason to test the waters.”

‘We follow him into battle’ While Zion Williamson and R.J. Barrett stole the show with their highlight-reel slams, the 2018-

19 Blue Devils were clearly Jones’ team.

Duke had been Jones’ dream school since his brother, Tyus, helped lead the Blue Devils to the 2015 National Championship. And, after becoming the first Duke Class of 2018 commit, Jones created the group chat that lured the nation’s top three recruits to Durham.

Despite entering the program as an 18-year-old, Jones showed poise and maturity from the outset.

The 6-foot-3 guard led the ACC with his 3.7 assistto-turnover ratio and quickly emerged as one of the nation’s best on-ball defenders, stifling opposing guards. Perhaps his most impressive effort came in a six-steal performance at Madison Square Garden against Texas Tech Dec. 20, remembered for the embrace he got from head coach Mike Krzyzewski at the end of the contest.

Jones showed a love for the big stage, with an 18-point, sixassist performance in the ACC championship and a 22-point, eight-assist outburst against Virginia Tech in the Sweet 16. Given his leadership on both sides of the ball, it’s no

surprise Krzyzewski named him a captain alongside seniors Javin DeLaurier and Jack White for this year’s squad.

“There’s only so much advice I can give him because he’s been right there with us every step of the way,” DeLaurier said of Jones’ leadership.

“Even though last year he wasn’t a captain, he was definitely one of our leaders. For us, it was huge having him officially as a captain.

Our point guard, we follow him into battle every game and having him back this year is huge for our group.”

Battling on and off the court While the Blue Devils fought through injuries and adversity

on the way to their 21st ACC championship title, for Jones and his family, their biggest battle of 2019 was fought off the court.

Jones’ mother, Debbie, had been fighting breast cancer since the middle of last season. Her youngest son wore a special pair of Kyrie 5 sneakers during the NCAA tournament with a pink ribbon near

the heel in her honor.

The Jones family recently received good news—Tre told the media following Countdown to Craziness that she finally “got through her treatment.”

Jones took the opportunity to honor his mother during his player introduction at Countdown to Craziness. Instead of breaking out a dance to a top-40 hit, the youngest Jones opted to bring his mother down from the friends and family section and onto the court with him, where she promptly received an ovation from the crowd.

“I was trying to think of a song to come out to, but I feel like with what she went through the past eight months or nine months, whatever it’s been now, and how strong she is and everything she’s shown through battling her breast cancer and getting over it, I wanted to just bring her out and have her share that moment with me at halfcourt,” Jones said.

‘He has to be really good’ While Jones excelled in the big moment, his biggest weakness—perimeter shooting—was exposed down the stretch. Teams packed the paint against the Blue Devils to keep the ball away from Williamson and Barrett, preferring to leave Jones open on the perimeter. Unfortunately for Duke, Jones struggled to find his range. Jones hit a mere See TRE on Page 12

DUELING COLUMNISTS

Will veterans or young blood power Duke?

Goldwire and O’Connell will step up Roll the dice on Moore and Stanley In the era of the one-and-done, Blue Devil fans have been treated to the high of a championship team propped up by younger talent and the lows of early tournament exits due to a squad laced with inexperience.

Maybe it’s the post-Zion Williamson hangover, but this year’s haul of new five-star faces just seems to come up a bit short in terms of the jaw-dropping talent needed to carry a team to victory. This season will serve as a marked change of place for Duke, as a team led by upperclassmen, not newcomers, will be the key to the Blue Devils cutting down the nets in March.

Although the Blue Devil freshmen have talent, glaring weaknesses in each of their games make them unreliable to carry the team.

While Vernon Carey Jr. certainly has the potential to be a dominant center offensively, questions have persisted throughout the summer as to whether his defense would be able to fall in line. The Blue Devils didn’t get to see whether he had improved much on that end of the floor in Duke’s exhibition opener against Northwest Missouri State Saturday, when two fouls in his first minutes of play left him just 10 minutes on the floor.

Winston

Wendell Moore and Cassius Stanley can certainly defend, but neither of them has shown that they have much offense to back it up. The former opened the exhibition slate going 2-for-11 from the field while the latter contributed seven points and no assists— numbers more indicative of role players than stars. And although Matthew Hurt has been the most impressive of the freshmen, his lack of physicality and athleticism make it hard to see him as a consistent star for Duke.

Now, before you get your pitchforks and call the season a failure before it even begins, the Blue Devils still have hope as contenders.

After all, Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski is far from worried about the shortcomings from his freshmen.

“Over the last few years, we’ve had guys who were lottery picks already,” Krzyzewski said after Countdown to Craziness. “We don’t have that.

That doesn’t mean that some of these guys won’t be pros or first round picks, they still have a lot to develop, and that’s exciting.”

Where the Blue Devils make up for these shortcomings will be in their upperclassmen, and how their individual developments make for a team that’s a bit of a throwback to those from Duke before the 2010s.

The most important developments for the Blue Devil upperclassmen will certainly come in See POINT on Page 12

This Duke season is a bit like a family game of Monopoly, though it will probably end up being a good deal shorter in duration.

First comes a crucial roll of the dice, determining where the tokens end up. I like to think of Duke as the boot, new pieces be damned. The freshmen are Chance cards (nobody really knows what they’re getting) and sophomore point guard Tre Jones is a Community Chest card (he’s going to be either good or gamechanging). Senior captains Jack White and Javin DeLaurier are naturally the parents needed for some semblance of order.

Juniors Alex O’Connell and Jordan Goldwire are a true mystery, but I’ve narrowed down the options to either free parking or jail. You know exactly what you’re getting into, which can be a source of solace in times of uncertainty.

Unfortunately, while free parking and jail can be vital at the right times, too much time on either space guarantees certain elimination.

O’Connell and Goldwire are similarly valuable assets—one as a sharpshooter and one as a tireless defender—but they won’t win the Blue Devils a championship.

For any real shot at a title this year, Duke has to roll the dice with its freshmen, namely, guards

Glen

Wendell Moore and Cassius Stanley.

Ranked No. 22 and No. 32 in ESPN’s recruiting rankings, respectively, Moore and Stanley have the scoring chops to chow down on Jones’ dishes.

Their offensive performance in their exhibition debut lacked consistency, but they displayed a defensive intensity nearing that of Jones.

Duke head coach Mike Krzyzewski simply must offer talented freshman big men Matthew Hurt and Vernon Carey Jr. significant minutes this season. White is 6-foot-7 and DeLaurier is a lean 6-foot-10. The Blue Devils just don’t have infinite Community Chest cards.

Ultimately, it will be up to Moore, Stanley, Hurt and Carey to determine the fate of Duke’s season. All the freshmen need playing time to develop into a squad that could bring an NCAA championship to Durham.

The freshmen are to some extent in similar situations, but the juniors are nearly polar opposites. Goldwire can lock down the best perimeter threats in the country. On the other hand, his offensive skillset has been severely underdeveloped. Of the 44 shots he took last year, 25 were three-pointers. Just three struck nylon. O’Connell shoots the ball beautifully— his 37.5 percent conversion rate from long range last season was the best on the team.

That is contrasted by his 1.8 defensive box plus-minus, the worst among Duke players See COUNTERPOINT on Page 13

RETURN TO NORMALCY

Duke hype-train ‘back to the norm’ with roster

By Evan Kolin Assistant Blue Zone Editor

Last season, Duke was the epicenter of the sports universe.

From the cover of Sports Illustrated to the top of the hour on SportsCenter to the Twitter accounts of former U.S. Presidents, it was nearly impossible to go a day without hearing about the Blue Devils.

Fast forward a year later and Duke brings in yet another elite class of freshmen, the sixth consecutive top-two recruiting ranking for the Blue Devils according to ESPN. The highly-touted group includes the No. 6 overall prospect in center Vernon Carey Jr., the No. 11 overall recruit in forward Matthew Hurt, five star forward Wendell Moore Jr. and four-star guard Cassius Stanley.

But, things are different.

Being the program that it is, Duke will always be a household name for even the most casual college basketball followers. This season, however, the world isn’t zeroed in on Durham like it was when Zion Williamson, R.J. Barrett and Cam Reddish made their oneyear college pitstop.

“It’s just sort of back to the norm I guess,” forward Javin DeLaurier said. “Last year was a bit of an exception with all the attention and fanfare that that team had. But at the end of the day, Duke is still Duke, and so things are still back to my sophomore and freshman year about the same level of where they were. So it’s like you said—quote, unquote normal.”

Juan Bermudez | Associate Photography Editor

Javin DeLaurier is among the Blue Devils that make the 2019-20 roster feel “normal.”

But the absence of dominant names like Williamson and Barrett won’t just affect the Blue Devils off the court. The transition will affect everything about this year’s Duke squad, especially how it operates on the hardwood.

‘We’re going to have to play together’ For the first time since 2012, the Blue Devils enter a season without an incoming top-three recruit on the roster. For many, that may spell doom for any hope Duke has at a national championship next spring. The Blue Devils, however, see otherwise.

“I think that we’ll just be much more balanced this year,” point guard Tre Jones said.

“Last year we had a lot of stuff coming through R.J. and Zion to start off with and then Cam every now and again would go off as well. We kind of banked on those guys a lot to carry a lot of the workload, where this year I feel like we’re a lot deeper, and we have a lot more guys who can have a good night.”

With Barrett and Williamson gone for New York City and New Orleans, Jones now takes on the role of lead-dog in this new-look offense.

But, he isn’t the only one buying into the team’s share-the-ball mentality.

“In terms of sharing the ball, you never know what it’s going to be that kills you on any given night,” DeLaurier said. “We have a

lot of talented guys…. We’re going to have to play together a bit more. Last year we had those two premier talents, and so sometimes we could kind of get caught watching them do their thing. And so now everyone’s got to be involved at all times in order for us to be successful.”

This new fluid offensive focus should also help improve upon the consistency of the team’s role players. With Williamson and Barrett dominating the ball last year, it was difficult for the rest of Duke’s rotation to stay in rhythm as the season went along.

Nobody understood that better than forward Jack White.

The now-senior captain began the 2018-19 campaign hot, hitting 37.8 percent of his threepoint attempts through December and looking like the kind of veteran talent the Blue Devils would need come March. But once the calendar year turned over, the Australian completely lost his stroke.

White connected on only 13.2 percent of his triples between January and February, including the infamous 0-for-28 streak from deep. He believes that this season, however, the increased balance of Duke’s offensive attack should keep everyone on the top of their game.

“Everyone’s just going to have to be ready,” White said. “You’re never going to know when your number’s going to be called, so I think that in itself is going to help guys stay locked in throughout the whole game….

‘It’s in th

As Coach K enters 40th season at 1

2

By Derek Saul Sports Editor

The last time that someone other than Mike Krzyzewski headed the Duke men’s basketball program, gas cost about a dollar per gallon, there was only one Star Wars movie and Duke Athletics as a whole had zero national championships.

Over the course of the last four decades—2019-20 marks his 40th season as the Blue Devils’ head coach—Krzyzewski has transformed Duke into the preeminent program in all of college basketball, with five national championships, three Olympic gold medals and the most all-time wins of any college basketball coach to his name.

But one day, the man who has become synonymous with Duke basketball will no longer be the Blue Devils’ head coach. And after Krzyzewski is long gone from the world of college basketball, his legacy will live on with dozens of current coaches who played or coached under him, being shaped by the winningest coach in college basketball history.

“Our program has had a lot of success, so you’re around people who work hard together to produce success and you’re not just around a great player or whatever,” Krzyzewski said at Duke’s media day in September. “It’s in their DNA then to do that and they seek other teams like that and they keep growing. And I’m proud of them. We have a lot of people.”

‘I don’t want anybody here that doesn’t want to be a head coach’ The list of current college head coaches that Krzyzewski coached or had on his staff as an assistant is a long one: Harvard’s Tommy Amaker, Howard’s Kenny Blakeney, Notre Dame’s Mike Brey, Pittsburgh’s Jeff Capel, Northwestern’s Chris Collins, Central Florida’s Johnny Dawkins, Arizona State’s Bobby Hurley, Niagara’s Greg Paulus and Marquette’s Steve Wojciechowski all fit the billing.

That doesn’t even include Utah Jazz head coach Quin Snyder, who played for and coached under Krzyzewski, or the scores of others with Duke ties currently serving in leadership roles across college basketball and the NBA. Nearly all of Krzyzewski’s disciples were known in their playing days for being hard-nosed guards who were relentless defensively with unrivaled leadership on the court. Amaker won National Defensive Player of the Year in 1987 despite his diminutive 6-foot frame before serving on the Blue Devil coaching staff for nine seasons. Wojciechowski’s resume looks nearly identical to Amaker’s: the 5-foot-11 point guard also earned National Defensive Player of the Year Honors in 1998 before coaching under Krzyzewski for more than a decade.

also all played guard for the Blue Devils before advancing in the coaching ranks. Brey is the black sheep of the bunch, a former guard at Northwestern State and George Washington before coming to Duke as an assistant.

It’s no coincidence that so many of his disciples eventually find themselves at the head of their own program: Krzyzewski only wants those with ambitions of being a head coach to join his staff, a common trait among former tenacious guards.

“He gave me an opportunity, and the great thing about being with Mike [Krzyzewski] was he told me when he hired me is that he said ‘I don’t want anybody coming here that doesn’t want to be a head coach,’” Brey, who served on the Blue Devil coaching staff from 1987 to 1995, said at ACC media day.

‘I swear by him’ When his disciples reach their ultimate goal of taking control of their own Division I program, the relationship between Krzyzewski and his mentees does not disappear.

Rather, the disciples turn to their former boss and coach for guidance—after all, Krzyzewski has been the mentor, confidante and role model for many of these men for decades.

“He’ll always be a mentor to me,” Capel, who coached under Krzyzewski from 2011 to 2018, said at ACC media day. “He’s been that to me since I was 16 years old. The friendship part came after I graduated, but probably more when I went back there to work as an assistant. I tell people all the time that when I was 16 and 17 years old, I believed in him. Now I’m 44 and I swear by him.”

Although the relationship between the Blue Devil head coach and his disciples is normally nothing but love, things can get awkward.

Inevitably, Duke and the teams coached by Krzyzewski’s mentees will play each other, and while the Blue Devils more often than not come out on top, the student has become the master on a few occasions. Brey’s Notre Dame teams have pestered the Blue Devils since joining the ACC, with the Fighting Irish defeating Duke five times between 2014 and 2016.

The biggest stage between Krzyzewski and a disciple came in March’s NCAA tournament, when Dawkins and ninth-seeded Central Florida nearly pulled off an upset against the top-seeded Blue Devils, falling 77-76 in a game that required

heir DNA’

Duke, his legacy already lives on incredible luck for Duke to win.

After the heartbreaking loss, a resigned Dawkins couldn’t help but reminisce of the time when Goliath was on his side.

Even after Krzyzewski’s pupils have long been on their own, even if he rips their hearts out, Krzyzewski will always be their mentor.

“He’d probably put me on the line now, and I’d probably start running suicides,” Dawkins said following the Knights’ devastating loss to the Blue Devils. “That’s just part [of the mentor relationship], once someone’s coached you, they’re your coach for the rest of your life.”

Dawkins’ reference to running suicides evokes memories of Krzyzewski’s military background and his own mentee relationship with a celebrated coach. The then-scrawny Weber High School product played point guard at Army in the 1960s under head coach Bob Knight before serving in the military. When the Chicago native returned from duty, Knight—who held the Division I wins record until Krzyzewski passed him in 2011—hired him as an assistant at Indiana, before the young coach took over the job at his alma mater in 1975.

After a five-year stint at Army, Krzyzewski was hired as the Duke head coach in March 1980. The rest is history.

Krzyzewski himself was a heady guard who rose through the coaching ranks quickly, largely through his close ties to a college basketball legend. In each of his pupils are striking similarities to Krzyzewski’s own story.

‘Love every single one of your players’ While still coaching under Krzyzewski, his mentees soak in every word he has to say. After all, who is better to teach how to run a college basketball program from than one of the most successful coaches in the sport’s history?

Though many branches already exist, Krzyzewski’s coaching tree is not done growing. On his current staff, there are multiple likely future head coaches, with all four fitting the Krzyzewski assistant formula: young former Duke players known for their defense and intangibles on the court.

“Every single day that he’s with us, he’s teaching us valuable lessons,” Nolan Smith, Duke’s Director of Basketball Operations, said. “He even makes points to say, ‘When you all become head coaches, make sure you do this.’ I’m constantly taking notes from him. I feel like every single one of our assistant coaches does the exact same thing because every single day it’s endless knowledge for the future careers we want to have as head coaches.”

It’s not just Krzyzewski’s current assistants who feel his impact on a daily basis. His disciples are constantly reminded of their mentor and look back to their time with him for guidance.

“Coach K has left an incredible legacy at Duke over the course of his 40-year career,” Wojciechowski said in an email to The Chronicle.

“He’s touched every aspect of the University’s campus and the greater Durham community as well. In regards to his former players, he’s impacted us in so many positive ways, that on a daily basis we are able to reflect on the lessons we learned under his tutelage.”

As for the coaching lessons from Krzyzewski, it’s simple. “[K’s biggest lesson] is to just love every single one of your players,” Smith said. “He truly loves and cares about every single one of his players and he prepares. He prepares better than anybody that I’ve ever been around, for anything.”

‘I hope it keeps going’ Krzyzewski will turn 73 during the 2019-20 season and the unfortunate reality for Duke is that he is approaching the end of his tenure—even though finding a touch of gray among his jet black head of hair is hard to find.

As such, any discussion of Krzyzewski’s legacy inevitably leads to the question of succession: who’s next to lead the Blue Devils?

While trying to replicate Krzyzewski’s success at Duke is an impossible task, the next Duke men’s basketball head coach will likely come from his crop of mentees.

It may be that one of his pupils takes over Krzyzewski’s former position at the helm of the Blue Devils, carrying on his legacy through his sustained success at Duke. But all the more likely is that Krzyzewski lives on in college basketball for years to come thanks to his dozens of mentees rising through the ranks, making their own legacies along the way.

As for if he thinks his legacy will continue on through his disciples, Krzyzewski remains optimistic.

“I think that it will keep going. I hope it keeps going.”

FAMILY TIES

Coach K welcomes grandson Michael Savarino to team

By Glen Morgenstern Assistant Blue Zone Editor

He’s short a couple consonants in his last name and 54 years of life experience, but the resemblance is there.

If their identical jet-black hair and 6-foot stature didn’t give them away, the same understated humility and passion certainly do.

Their similarities nearly make “The Brotherhood” of Duke men’s basketball a reality.

Those two are head coach Mike Krzyzewski and his grandson, freshman walk-on Michael Savarino. Savarino never had any trouble getting seats right behind Duke’s bench when he was a boy. Now, he has made his way onto that bench— or even further, if he plays his cards right.

“It’s an unbelievable feeling to have this Duke jersey on with my last name on the back,” Savarino said.

He likely won’t make an impact on the floor, but rather on the sidelines with his grandfather.

Yet, despite all that the Durham native and the legendary coach have in common—genes and otherwise—Savarino is his own man.

Mike and Michael Imagine you’re a pretty talented middle school basketball player, but you want to step up your game. Luckily, you’re on a nickname basis with the most qualified basketball coach in the world, in this case a record-setting, legendary college basketball figure you call “Poppy.” Unfortunately, Poppy has never approached you about

basketball, and his five national championships make him just a bit intimidating.

This is the situation that faced Michael Savarino as a youngster. Having inherited only 25 percent of Krzyzewski’s basketball’s wisdom, Savarino had to initiate any basketball talk with his legendary grandfather to gain more.

“He and I never really talked about basketball,” Savarino said. “But there was one instance in sixth grade where he sat my brother and I down and said, ‘If either of you want to walk on, that opportunity will always be there.’ I don’t think he remembers that conversation, but—trust me—I remember that conversation.”

Since then, Savarino and his grandfather have held an ongoing conversation about Savarino’s basketball career. Krzyzewski attended several of the guard’s high school games at Durham Academy and reviewed film with his grandson.

Savarino went on to record 7.3 points and 2.9 assists per game in his senior year, while shooting 91 percent from the charity stripe. Those aren’t otherworldly numbers, but he got them on a team with M.J. Rice, the No. 13 prospect in the Class of 2022.

Plus, his grandfather proved you don’t need to dominate as a player to make an impact.

Krzyzewski scored just 6.2 points per game in his three seasons at Army.

When Savarino announced he was going to walk onto the team, first instinct led some to point to favoritism by the Duke head

coach, now in his 40th season at the helm of the program. Krzyzewski tried to squash any talk of nepotism.

“He’s not on the team because he’s my grandson,” Krzyzewski said. “He would be a pretty good Division II player, but he wanted to come to Duke. He could get in. He knows the lay of the land.”

Krzyzewski also reported that during Duke’s preseason combine, Savarino hoisted the 185-pound bench press more times than anyone on the squad, though, as Krzyzewski pointed out, “Maybe that says something about the strength of our team.”

There is one problem, though. Krzyzewski strictly addresses his grandson as “Michael”, but what do Savarino’s teammates call him?

“He’s been accepted by his teammates as Michael or Mike or whatever the hell they call him—knucklehead probably sometimes,” Krzyzewski said.

‘You’ve got to be pretty old’ Savarino’s family has been fighting for him throughout his basketball journey. The freshman suspects that his mother, Debbie, discussed his becoming a walk-on with her father before Michael told Krzyzewski himself.

Even after practices started, Krzyzewski faced pressure to help his grandson—this time from his own wife, when she questioned why her husband wasn’t reviewing Savarino’s performance in scrimmages.

It leaves no doubt that when Savarino scores

Savarino has joined his Poppy at Duke. his first field goal in Cameron Indoor Stadium underneath those five championship banners, it will be a big deal.

“Hopefully, I’ll have my whole family here when that happens because that would be a really special moment for everybody,” Savarino said. “But I hope my grandfather—oh, excuse me—Coach isn’t too excited because I’m pretty See SAVARINO on Page 14

TRE FROM PAGE 5 26.2 percent of his shots from downtown.

Jones’ return to Durham comes with added expectations and responsibilities. Last year, Jones was not relied upon to create offensively, rather serving as the main facilitator. Entering the 201920 campaign, Krzyzewski is relying on Jones not only to run the Blue Devil attack, but to aggressively hunt for his shot and become one of the team’s predominant offensive weapons.

“I think he over-passed last year,” Krzyzewski said. “I want him to produce scores, whether he’s passing them or not. He’s become a really good layup-maker. If you’re going to be a really good point guard, then you have to make layups, and so much of it is having that balance...and different angles…. If we’re going to be really good, he has to be really good.”

‘It motivates us all the time’ It’s not going to be an easy task for this year’s Duke team to

outperform its 32-win, highlighted-filled 2018-19 season. The Blue Devils entered the NCAA tournament as the nation’s top-overall seed and lost three eventual top-10 NBA Draft picks.

Duke once again brings in a top-three recruiting class, but it will be the Blue Devils’ veteran presence that will have to be the difference maker. Those players, alongside Jones, enter the 2019-20 campaign with a chip on their shoulder after falling just short of the Final Four in back-to-back seasons.

Jones stood curled up near midcourt—his hands holding his jersey, wiping away tears, following Michigan State’s stunning 6867 victory in the Elite Eight at Capital One Arena in Washington last March. Jones will get his shot at revenge Dec. 3 when Duke travels to East Lansing, Mich., to battle the preseason No. 1 team.

Until then, Jones remains focused on giving his team another chance at a Final Four appearance.

“The loss last year is something that motivates us every single day. I know the ones that went through that loss last year, that are back this year, we talk about it all the time,” Jones said.

“It motivates us all the time, every single day when we’re in here

working. I wouldn’t say there is anxiety from the loss last year, but it is definitely something we feed off of.”

Jones ended his freshman season in an emotional manner.

their junior class, with Alex O’Connell and Jordan Goldwire being the keys to Duke reaching the next level this season.

O’Connell, a lengthy, smooth scoring shooting guard, will be the key to unlocking the Blue Devil offense this season. On a roster that desperately needs outside shooting to allow its talented slashers to go to work, the Roswell, Ga., native stands as the perfect complement to the team. With 65 percent of his shot attempts coming beyond the arc last season, O’Connell projects as Duke’s best threat from downtown. Couple that with a natural quickness for getting to the rim and grabbing boards and expect the junior Blue Devil to see many 20-plus minute games this season.

Goldwire projects as the exact opposite of O’Connell, but with an equally important role for this coming season. The Norcross, Ga., native is one of the best defenders Duke can put on the floor, routinely locking down guards and wings. He also has a budding offensive game that stems from an entire summer of working on shooting, don’t be surprised when Goldwire’s number is called off the bench well before his younger peers. “[O’Connell’s] always competing,” Goldwire said. “We’ve worked a lot this offseason working on our games, trying to take steps forward. I’ve seen a lot of improvement from him off the dribble and defensively. He moved down to North Carolina, but I came back up early. He was here for most of the summer and I came up in June so we were in the gym a lot together. We lived in here.”

Rounded out by senior captains Javin DeLaurier and Jack White, both of whom are capable role players with great rebounding and defending acumen, Duke’s upperclassmen offer consistency on both sides of the ball that the Blue Devil freshmen desperately need.

While you may be used to Duke’s freshmen stealing the headlines, get ready for a change of pace this season. Duke’s upperclassmen are balanced, experienced and ready to be the keys to make the Blue Devils go the distance.

SOCIAL MEDIA FROM PAGE 4 that and the intense interest that social media has,” Krzyzewski reflected. “It’s been great for our program, and our program’s been great for it.”

The social media staff certainly gets an added boost with personable, talented stars, but the staff has underscored not putting too much emphasis on promoting themselves on their personal pages. Instead, Stanley and his teammates have been using their platforms to show support for one another.

“The first couple days they told all of us, ‘You don’t have to advertise yourself. We’re going to put you out there and all you have to do is play basketball, just show love to each other,’ and that’s what we’ve done,” the freshman guard said.

Blue Devil fans got a taste of even more social media frenzy this past spring, as point guard Tre Jones made shockwaves around college basketball with a series of Instagram posts teasing a potential return to Durham for a sophomore season.

Two days later, his decision was official, but the massive response on Jones’ account—which now features 319,000 followers—was yet another circumstance of Duke’s stranglehold on the biggest brand in college athletics.

‘I shouldn’t say never’ Despite Krzyzewski’s support for what Bradley and his staff have built with @DukeMBB, the Hall of Famer is one of the only premier coaches, along with Roy Williams, to not have a public social media account associated with himself. However, he does use a private account so he can keep up with former and current Blue Devils.

“I go back to something I learned as an Army officer—we should function on a need-to-know basis, and I really believe in it,” Krzyzewski said. “I follow a number of guys because I feel I need to know something about them. I don’t think anyone needs to know anything more about me…. I’m interested in what my guys think. I’m not trying to win a poll, but I understand it. I think it serves its purpose.”

public on the internet. Don’t expect Krzyzewski to go around starting Twitter beef, though.

“I shouldn’t say never, because when I stop coaching, whatever I’m doing, I might then feel that that would activate more of an awareness for maybe the Emily Krzyzewski Center, the V Foundation or whatever,” Krzyzewski said regarding whether he’ll make a public social media account.

“But right now, it’d be conflicting. When I’m not coaching, maybe it wouldn’t.”

Thankfully, the program’s social media following doesn’t need Krzyzewski online to keep growing, and believe it or not, it’ll keep on moving even without Zion Williamson and Co.

COUNTERPOINT FROM PAGE 6 with 20 minutes of total court time. The Blue Devils can’t afford either of those holes in their games.

O’Connell and Goldwire are skilled Division I athletes, but neither of them has the NBA potential of any of this year’s crop of freshmen. The junior pals should feature in situations suited to their specialties. If Krzyzewski needs a stop, he’ll call Goldwire’s name. If the Blue Devils find themselves down three in the waning seconds of a game, O’Connell is the man for the job. Other than that, small to medium doses of each will suffice.

Krzyzewski may be tempted to stick with his veterans throughout the season, but that decision could come back to bite him come March. If Duke finds itself up against a program that has properly developed its assets, it just might find itself declaring bankruptcy.

Do not pass Go, do not collect a sixth national title.

SAVARINO FROM PAGE 11 sure he knows I can score the ball a little.”

Yes, Savarino finds himself in an adjustment period, even though classes have been in session for months. But who could blame him? Savarino must go from calling his grandfather Poppy to hearing him curse regularly on the sidelines.

“It’d be interesting if anyone else has had [his grandson on his team]. You’ve got to be pretty old,” Krzyzewski said, chuckling.

Krzyzewski indeed now plays the role of the elder statesman of college basketball. At 72, he is older than both UCLA legend John Wooden and Bobby Knight, Krzyzewski’s coach at Army, were when they retired.

It has certainly been a while since Krzyzewski donned a jersey at West Point. Even then, Krzyzewski was a leader. His viral West Point yearbook photo caption cites him as a leader of the Sesumarongi—an anagram of “ignoramuses.” He is pictured as a buttoned-up (literally), disciplined Army officer with a bold combover.

Meanwhile, Savarino recently retweeted a picture of soft sugar cookies with pink frosting and sprinkles captioned, “Greatest creation in dessert history.” Last year, he retweeted a Spongebob-themed meme praising Moe’s and trashing Chipotle. Such behavior is just one of many privileges of college student life in the 21st century—even if Marketplace, Duke’s freshman dining hall, lacks both soft frosted cookies and edible Mexican cuisine.

OId face, new place For one of Krzyzewski’s kin, leadership stands paramount and Savarino has plenty in that department. He captained a 28-4 high school

team to the semifinals of the NCISAA 4A state tournament. Savarino additionally attended many practices run by Krzyzewski growing up.

Simply put, Savarino is the best man to help Duke’s many one-and-dones acclimate to the basketball climate in Durham.

But it can get lonely at the top. Thankfully, Savarino has a longtime friend in fellow walkon Keenan Worthington.

“We were great friends back when we were younger, and we kept in touch when I went somewhere else for high school, so it’s really cool that we play together again at the same school and everything,” Worthington said.

Before Worthington left for Blair Academy in New Jersey, Savarino and Worthington attended elementary and middle school together in Durham and played on some recreational teams together. The recollections are worthy of nostalgia for the native Durhamite.

“We only played one game together because Keenan broke his wrist at AAU practice or something, but of course we won,” Savarino said wistfully, before breaking out into a smile.

“We both had a pretty good game.”

‘This is what I want to do’ When you talk to Savarino, your apprehensions about celebrities’ offspring disappear. Gone are the stereotypes of a coach’s son (or grandson, as it may be). In July, Savarino told WRAL he was willing to literally run through a wall for Coach K—so he’s your typical Duke student.

“I realized when I went on a tour here, like, man, this is what I want to do,” Savarino said. “This is where I want to be. This is my dream school, and I am just really grateful to be here.”

And I’m sure Poppy—oh, excuse me—Coach is happy he’s here, too.

HYPE FROM PAGE 6 Everyone recognizes that everyone can make a great impact on winning on this team... guys are starting to work out what role they can best fill.”

Every year, Duke’s role players have faced countless obstacles hindering their opportunities to develop and improve. If an athlete isn’t a five-star recruit, they often take a back seat to the next projected top draft pick unloading his bags on East Campus.

This season’s Blue Devils still have numerous talented newcomers, but unlike years past, there are no surefire lottery selections. Every returner will have a chance to perform, from White and DeLaurier to Alex O’Connell, Joey Baker and Jordan Goldwire.

Balance isn’t just something that will come to define the Blue Devils’ offense, though.

Balance changes the entire makeup of the team, from how each lineup is constructed to how the team functions together day in and day out.

“An old-fashioned type of situation” The one-and-done era has drastically changed college basketball over the last decade, with Duke being one of the main recipients of that change. Gone are the days of Christian Laettner, Bobby Hurley and Grant Hill staying four years, developing chemistry and finally breaking through with national championships as upperclassmen.

Rather, the Blue Devils seem to undergo a complete roster makeover every summer, with their leading scorer changing every season since the 2007-08 campaign. This year is not

The Chronicle necessarily altering that trend, with freshmen Carey and Hurt expected to be among the team leaders in scoring. Regardless, the overall roster does have head coach Mike Krzyzewski rekindling old times.

“We have players from all classes that can play,” Krzyzewski said. “I think as a result, everyone feels like they got a chance, and they’re working at it. And so they come and compete every day, and they’re making each other better. Some days some guys look better than others and then other days those guys look better. That’s more of an old-fashioned type of situation.”

Yes, Duke is still constructed with youth at its core, and with the way the Blue Devils’ 2020 recruiting class is looking, that doesn’t appear to be changing anytime soon. What this group does have, however, is a unique mix of both veteran and young talent that this program has not seen in years, something that can prove very valuable come NCAA tournament time.

“We have that blend of old and new,” Krzyzewski said. “I really like the group, and that dynamic of old and guys who’ve been through it…. I like the fact that this is more of an old-fashioned dynamic for us.”

Of course, any sane person would’ve taken Williamson, Barrett and Reddish back for another season. All three are transcendent talents who can take over a game in an instant.

But in a way, it’s nice to go back in time for a bit and experience the kind of basketball that dominated Durham long before those three were even born.

Coach K seems to agree.

“It’s kind of refreshing—I like it,” Krzyzyewski said. “And we’ll see how it translates to wins and losses.”
