Following Duke suffering, sustaining first loss of 2024 season Saturday with 24-14 loss on the road at Georgia Tech following beginning, starting season 5-0 Duke Head Coach Manny Diaz had this to say about his sustaining, suffering first loss of 2024 season Saturday in Atlanta!

We just we were never able to answer, which was disappointing,”

We’ve always felt very confident about the way we play in the fourth quarter, and today, our guys didn’t have it. I don’t fault our effort, our want to, our desire. The guys gave everything.”

We had a lot of guys, not 100%, playing today,”and they gave what they had. Proud of some of the non starters who came in and gave us valuable minutes today. I really thought they played their tails off as well.”
