Latest Brotherhood Podcast Is Out With Jon Scheyer!
Good stuff from CFOS and the coach.
The latest episode of the Brotherhood Podcast is out and the guest is none other than Duke’s head coach, Jon Scheyer.
Scheyer has put together a very promising team. The optimism this fall is very different from the anxiety that sprung up after last year’s mass transfers. Duke has just two players back, Caleb Foster, the host of the podcast, and Tyrese Proctor.
There are some quality transfers though and a highly promising freshman class that we’ll see for the first time Saturday.
It’s a fun conversation with a bit of teasing back and forth. The best question we’ve heard so far is when Foster asks Scheyer what his biggest surprise has been:
“My biggest surprise has just been how quickly I have felt a deep connection with you guys as a team. And I think that’s the biggest concern, probably of any coach now, but especially, I think, for me going into the off season this year, was how to gain that connectivity as quickly as possible, because we have, of our scholarship players, 10 of 12 have never worn a Duke uniform before. So that’s just naturally, you don’t know each other...Not that it’s a surprise, because we went through, I mean, we had a ton of, I had a ton of conversations with all you guys, you know, this spring about my expectations, what I thought our team could be. But to see it happen as quickly as it has, and as organically as it has, I think is a credit to all you guys individually.”
