#838 - Preseason schedule, meet legal chaos
About this episode
Jason and Donald discuss Duke's preseason schedule and recent legal changes affecting college athletes.
Duke has its preseason schedule set, and legal chaos has added an entire class of athletes back to the player pool. Jason and Donald dissect it all on Episode 838. First off, Duke has announced their preseason schedule: a home scrimmage against Belmont on October 8th, a home preseason game against Tennessee on October 20th, and then traveling to Allen Fieldhouse to face Kansas in a preseason game on October 25th. We go through what those games can bring for the Blue Devils as they prepare for the season. We also get into the ACC preseason rankings for football. Duke, the defending ACC champions, are once again disrespected as they are picked to finish 10th. Jeremiah Hasley does get some love in the All-ACC Preseason Team. After the break, we dive into the legal chaos that ensued on Friday as 2 court rulings essentially made it where every student-athlete in the incoming Class of 2022 are eligible for a 5th year of competition. We discuss how that and pending Congressional legislation could open the door for some players to come back to college sports, with the caveat that the courts could reverse their decision at any time.
