Winning percentage fell faster than the stock market.

Epic collapse

“Clutch city”

Any time duke loses it’s a beautiful thing. When they lose in heart breaking, soul crushing fashion for a trip to the national championship game? That’s almost a religious experience.

Congrats to Houston and thanks from the rest of us.

I was watching it unfold before my own eyes and I couldn't believe it , they out hustled Duke, no bad calls no lucky shots , hard work earned them this shot at the national championship, watch out gators

Biggest NIL budget in the country and can’t buy a title 🤣

Next season's recruits: Duke #1 class, Houston #2 in the country plus Houston is more likely to take top transfers. So this could be a rematch next year.

Unbelievable! I couldn’t believe the meltdown I was witnessing, but it was great to see nonetheless. I love March Madness!

3 possession lead with a 30 shot clock. All Duke had to do was inbound, cross half court, and get fouled.

Woooooohooooooo! Go Coogs!

Both were awesome games

Or, Jon Scheyer throttles back on Duke offense so much that it finally stalls out like an airplane in mid flight. The last minutes of the Duke-Houston game was played at the Cougars pace. Terrible.

I’m a hater but I always wondered how “good” a coach he’d be without the bonus of recruiting at Duke…
