Coach K on Cassius Stanley: "Something happened with his hamstring. It’s muscular. He will have an MRI tomorrow. We don’t think it’s a knee injury, so that’s good. He will be out for a while. Hopefully right after Christmas. That’s my hope."

Great win for you and the Devils tonight against the Seminoles which I'm sure you enjoyed watching . . . . . that is if you were not having a second Valentines dinner.

No, V-Day is in reality like a week for me now. Anyway, that was a GREAT WIN for Duke, because FSU is good, real good. And I'm watching Texas and Baylor and I'm just not seeing why they are considered #1, SMH, I'm just thinking Duke and FSU are better than them. And Louisville as well. The Big 12 is always overrated IMHO.
