Duke Blue Planet BLOG

Heading into the start of our regular season, Coach K talks about UNC-G, the Preseason NIT, Mason’s wrist injury, his new grandson John David!, our freshmen adjusting to the college level, and what he is most proud of at Duke as he begins year 30.

In this edition of BP Passport, Coach K discusses the Pfeiffer game, our new style of man-to-man defense, his guys in the NBA as the 2009-10 season kicks off, the team poster and what he likes to do to unwind.  Congrats to Mark Baden, who was selected as the winner of the best sign at the Pfeiffer game.  Mark will receive a pair of tickets behind Coach K at our next home game (November 3rd against Findlay).

In his latest video blog entry, Coach K discusses Countdown to Craziness, signs in Cameron and our first exhibition game before answering questions from fans.  If you have a question you would like to ask next time, email us at db@dukeblueplanet or tweet @dukeblueplanet.

DukeBluePlanet.com is adding some engaging and insight bloggers with the season starting officially tomorrow… Including our Hall of Fame legend!  Coach K has offered to submit video blogs every week or so in what we are calling “Coach K’s Blue Planet Passport.”  Coach will share his thoughts on the season, provide some updates on the latest news in the Duke Universe, answer questions from fans, talk to our Sixth Man, and share whatever is on his mind.

In his first blog below, Coach K talks about the season starting up and provides a Countdown to Craziness preview.  If you have any questions you would like to ask Coach in next week’s edition, email us at db@dukeblueplanet.com or tweet @dukeblueplanet.  Thanks for watching!
