I can guarantee you the number of titles Duke basketball has won over the years is way higher than number of funny pranks the players have pulled off, but when credit is due we give it.
Jon Scheyer, guard for the recently crowned National Champions of Duke, did something rather unorthodox when his team hit the locker room to continue the celebration. He took to Twitter, giving out his phone number for all the world to see.
About 20 minutes later, Scheyer realized what he did was extremely idiotic, and sent another tweet, begging people to only respond to him on Twitter.
Seemed like a giddy college kid making a simple mistake and retracting it, right? Ah ha, you forgot we were dealing with a Duke mastermind here. Turns out the number was that of Zach Kelly, a high school teammate of Scheyer, and member of the D-3 National Champion Washington University in St. Louis.
With all the love Duke gets from home and all the hate it gets from basically anywhere else in the world, I bet Kelly didn’t get a ton of sleep that night.
What do you mean? Duke players make good pranks all the time. Like that one time JJ Redick made everyone believe he wasn’t gay.
Duck fook.
And who didn’t love the Duke “stripper rape” prank!!!
+1 EP
I liked the one where Coach K faked a back injury when he had a shitty team so he could let his assistant coach take the win/loss record for him. PUNK’D!
Stripper Rape is the best prank to come out of the south since Jimmy Carter.
Guys, why don’t you try something original: like saying Duke flops, or that the players are unathletic. Or how about this one? Duke gets all the calls. It’s like you all went to the same school of tired hater cliches about Duke. Next time, try something original instead of sourcing from InsideCarolina or TerpLand.
What a bunch of idiots.
Here’s one for ya – Duke won a National Championship in a year when Kansas was unbeatable, Kentucky was a team of “destiny” and Duke was going to lose to the 9 seed in their region, wait the 4 seed, no wait, the 2 seed (oops they lost), wait the 3 seed. The Big East! Nope.
And where are all the Duke hate schools? Most of them playing in the NIT this year. Congrats on finishing the season #67 (UNC) and tied for 70th (UConn-victs). Or as your players are more likely to understand, your place in the NIT was from 5 to 8.
And Coach Calhoun, K’s speech Monday night is how you should talk about winning a game. Maybe in the future, you won’t show everyone what an %$#% you are – if you ever win a tournament game again.
Geez Respondingtomorons, who got your Duke blue anal beads in a knot? Maybe when K and Collins get through doing *ss to *ss you get one of them to help you untangle them.
