INSIDE SCOOP: DUKE CANCELS FOOTBALL SEASON DUE TO LACK OF SCANDAL
Though we’re pretty sure he’s either prepping to trot around the Continent or is already doing so, Jonathan Tu gives us the inside scoop on another preppie school and its recently tumultuous relationship with athletics: Duke.
Durham, North Carolina - In response to the absence of serious administrative malfeasance of any kind, as well as a considerable dearth of legal woes including charges of sexual assault, Duke University president Richard Brodhead announced yesterday that the football team’s season would be cancelled.
RTWT OMG heh ditto yeah.
It’s hard to compete sometimes.

This could have a major impact on the power rankings for the most over-rated conference. This was the year Duke was going to make a run at Wake.

That is too funny.

It just goes to show that the ACC takes the Fulmer Cup seriously. Either compete to win or get out of the game!!!

Orson, you just like the story because it implicitly lauds Steve Spurrier’s coaching abilities.
