DBR Podcast # 254 - Covid & Cancellations As The Season Begins

Sort of begins anyway

On this pre-Thanksgiving episode of the Duke Basketball Report Podcast, the guys talk about the fallout from Duke’s opening game against Gardner Webb being disrupted by coronavirus. We will broadly about all of the cancelations and postponements around the country just as the season was getting ready to tip off this week. Will schools abandon non-conference games entirely? Will conferences scramble to create bubbles so they can play conference games without worrying about the virus? We dive into all of it as we have throughout this long and painful offseason.

After the break, we discuss the ramifications for the ACC Tournament being moved to Greensboro, and Sam shares a depressing story to remind us that time is undefeated.

We wrap up this episode giving thanks, as is custom at this time of year, for everything from Duke fans to Duke administration to Duke’s commitment to social justice.

Come hang out with us on the DBR forum, rate and review the podcast, and email us at dbrpodcast at gmail.com. We’ll be back whenever Duke can actually play a basketball game.
