Hey Duke fans, so I finally had a little bit of time on my hands this afternoon and noticed that I could stream “A Cut Above 100 Seasons of Duke Basketball” on Netflix to my Xbox 360 so I figured what better time than now to watch it. I don’t know why it took me so long to watch it, but after watching it I don’t feel like I missed a whole lot.

The highlights for me of course were seeing the early 90′s teams play and what Coack K did with the team early in on his career. It really shows how much dedication Coack K puts into the team and the type of players he recruited. That was probably the best part of the show for me.

Another interesting part I like seeing was about the University early on. I’m not from the South or ACC country so I was un-aware how Duke University became a university and the information on the early coaches was awesome to find out.

The bad part of the movie I would have to say was in the middle. I just about fell asleep to be honest. I don’t know, I just didn’t find things that interesting but that could be because I wasn’t alive back then to follow things as close as I do now.

In the end however, I would recommend it to any Duke fan. It’s great to learn about things early on, and for most young Duke fans, they don’t know the things that Coack K had to go through early in his career at Duke. So if you have NetFlix and a XBOX 360 go ahead and stream it. Or you can always pick up a copy from Amazon if you wish as well.

If you have seen the video, what were your thoughts?

Sources close to USA Basketball and Duke Head Coach Mike Krzyzewski told reporters that Coack K will stay on with USA Basketball through the 2010 world championship in Turkey and at the 2012 London Olympics. The announcement is expected to be announced later this month on the eve of the start of Team USA’s minicamp.

I don’t really like this move for the sake of Duke Basketball. Coack K needs to have more time where he can recruit college players rather than worry about Team USA. I was alright with him coack the olympics last time, but now it is another three year committment and I think is time would be used more better at the University of Duke full time.

What’s your thoughts Duke fans?
