Duke fans hate UConn

[huskiesNhoos]

UNC fans are so much worse. Their delusion that they are constantly competitive with Duke has them always defending their positions. Both think they invented sliced bread though...

I walk around here in Charlotte like Maximus Decimus Meridius.....”Oh, you’re a UConn fan...”

“ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED!?”

I lived in chapel hill for a while, and the joke in NC is that the difference between NC State and UNC fans is that NC State fans actually went to school there.

Delivered, but I've already been modded enough on this site, don't want to get kicked off, so here's a censored version (I took the picture so I'm not in it)

The only Cincy fan I know is @kobe so I choose to believe nobody likes Mick

More than Kentucky? That is outstanding work on our part!

After Laettner in '90 & '91 nothing pleases me more than to see their fans miserable because of us and still despise us for it.

77-74
79-78

That is PURE JOY to watch

My wife is a tried and true Duke fan.. She used to work ABCD camp when she was an athletic trainer, met tons of players.. Also met Coach K and sat with his wife for a good hour while he was watching players. Down in the mancave she has a giant picture of her and Wojo.

I've balanced out the cave with plenty of UConn memorabilia, signed basketball from the 2014 team and numerous plaques from other years.

The past several winters have been a bitter pill to swallow, obviously Duke has flirted with championships while (before this year) we circled the bowl. So every Saturday night we were watching Duke battle whatever marquee opponent they were scheduled with.

Sidenote, she's basically had enough of the 1 and done so the hasn't really enjoyed the past few Duke teams BUT... She looooooooved UConn this year and thoroughly loved our return to relevance. Looking forward to games that matter, I hope we see games before January this year.

Lucky and unlucky at the same time, my friend!

She's a good sport, but hearing her just blanket defend Coach K and the program makes my eyes roll so far back in my head that they get stuck sometimes.

My my we are all forgetting the punchability of Greyson Allen’s face. I would agree they’ve had “less” hateable guys lately, but man oh man when they have hateable guys they really take it up a few notches.

I hated Laettner bc of his dagger against us during Huskymania but I respected his talent and realize he is probably one of the greatest tourney players of all time. I don't think there is a better example of why people hate Duke than Greyson Allen's smug dooshiness and on court antics. Couple that with pretty clear evidence that they paid Zion in some capacity and it's basically being swept under the rug, I don't know how anyone can root for Duke.

Has she ever been to fergs?

I 100000% recognize why most including UConn fans hate Laettner... but I actually don’t.

I was too young and not yet a UConn fan when he hit that shot, and he is local to me, grew up down the street from me. And he’s objectively one of the greatest college players of all time.

I hated Grayson Allen when he was at Duke but I remember watching his HS HLs and LOVING his game. Once he committed to Duke, then proved he’s a classic Dookie, I hated him.

I think Redick is my least favorite Duke guy, but if we include nerds like Kyrie and Austin Rivers they’re up there. They both weren’t there long enough or successful enough though.

I realize this is all bad to say on the Yard, but I must admit these things.

How can it be a man cave if the wife and her junk is there

Maybe he likes his wife. A man-cave should be adorned with all a man's likes. But the wife and the mistress should never be there at the same time.

I'm married to a Dookie, and we used to attend Duke alumni wine tasting parties here in Conn, usually pre-Christmas, where we'd watch a Saturday afternoon Duke game on TV. Wildly rabid fans all, but as someone here said, clueless on college basketball generally and, far from hating UConn, totally uninterested in UConn. I concluded that feigned indifference was revenge, Duke-style. Still remember sitting in the Duke rooting section at MSG when they were upset by St. John's. "We'll get 'em next time," I said, choking back utter delight.

This reminds me of friends in Stamford. Husband is the biggest redsox fan I've ever met. He went to a big game that they won when he was a little kid, and he happened to be wearing mismatched socks. To my knowledge, he's never worn matching socks a single day since. His wife sports a yankees tattoo.
