I thought we wanted to be Notre Dame?

Great article. I guess it just sucks to be us :P



Thus far we couldn't have asked for a greater curtain call. I hope I feel that way in another month.

Great article. Now, if we could just be Duke-like in the NCAA Tourney. Final Four?

People, people, people, this is the Duke. You guys don't know nothing!!!

If somebody compared me to him, I'd be overwhelmed and pleased.



Long live the Duke.

The Duke only went into retirement, he never died. He's totally immortal like Chuck Norris, though not as immortal.

People hated BYU long before they hated Dook.

I know the comparison is mostly one of how much BYU and Duke are "hated" by opponents and fans but it still makes me uncomfortable and embarrassed to hear it. BYU Basketball has really done nothing compared to Duke. I hope that changes this year. A final four appearance is the pinnacle of my hopes and dreams for this team.



People still think utah is good based on their final four appearance and I'd love to see BYU do that.
