TGIF, 'Nova Nation! At long last, the second straight dreaded long week is over, and we can all return to our irrational behavior tomorrow when the 'Cats take on DePaul. After that it's a pretty daunting (but awesome) Wednesday-Saturday schedule for two straight weeks with the return home game against Seton Hall tacked on a Monday night at the end.

"It is a privilege to represent Duke University, and with that privilege comes the responsibility to conduct oneself in a certain manner. After Rasheed repeatedly struggled to meet the necessary obligations, it became apparent that it was time to dismiss him from the program."
