Duke getting some calls late. Two charges called blocks

I am not a Duke fan, but the first one was a good call. The new rules call for the block when the offensive player has already initiated his move toward the basket, and the defender slides over. I have been more than frustrated with the charge/block call the last few years, but I believe the official got it correct on Kennard's play last night.

Naturally, some stuff got left on the cutting table for the long feature on Larry Scott. I thought about saving a few nuggets for another story, but instead I'll just share here on the board.

Several folks I talked to, both quoted and not, in the piece raved about Scott's strength as communicator. Others noted his plans to build the offense around his players — and not a pre-established philosophy.

Both LaVaar Scott and Mike Canales said almost the exact same thing about how Larry will approach this spring and the early fall.

CANALES: "One thing that Larry's learned throughout the years is you’ve got to play to your players’ strengths. Is it our OL right now with all their experience? Yes. So let’s lean heavily on the offensive line and be able to find out and establish the quarterback position."

LAVAAR: "He’s going to look at these guys in the spring and really play to their strengths. He’s not going to be someone who says, ‘Ok. This is what I like to do and I’m going to make you do it.’ Once they figure out which quarterback they’re going to go with, then they’ll have a better idea on which way they’re going to go. I think those quarterbacks are a little bit different, bring a little bit different elements to the game."

I like the idea, let Kelly and the line control the game, and keep the pressure off of whichever qb we go with...... btw Kelly with 1500yds and top 5 in the heisman voting

No way zero chance Butch names a starter in Spring ball.

Q would leave. This will be a decision probably two weeks before the opener.

He'll play both against GT imo, but I'd rather the team have fall camp knowing who the starter is so they can be comfortable with him and establish good rhythm
