Duke, 2016 -17 Season Arrives

November has arrived there is some what of a chill in the air here in the south leaves are falling and the season is about to begin for the preseason number one team in the country who finished the season 25-11 a year ago falling to Oregon in the sweet sixteen when Duke only had a six man rotation due to Amile Jefferson's injury.

Duke is now reloaded  with returning players  red shirt senior Amile Jefferson along with fellow senior Matt Jones , junior Grayson Allen who averaged 21.6 points per game last season.

Is the mixture of veteran leadership, the number one recruiting  class to go along with Mike Krzyzwski's coaching the recipe for Duke to cut down the nets in April 2017 in Phoenix Arizona at the University Of Phoenix Stadium home of the NFL's Arizona Cardinals  and bring a sixth national title back to Durham ?
