[QUOTE="zpfled, post: 1287360, member: 5335"] I remember the thread on this document when it came out. It's a good example of statistics/rankings that, I imagine, nobody really cares about. I mean, I certainly consider Duke to be the bluest of blue-bloods...and while we have a nice history, a strong tradition is only interesting to me if our program is currently sustaining it. It's like Bradley's tradition...sure it exists, but it's pretty dead now. I'm certain no Duke fan feels inferior to Illinois in any possible way. And I'm certain that when we miss the tournament year after year, I find no comfort in our great tradition. But if we are winning, then our tradition is fun to talk about. [/QUOTE]
