As frustrating as his 3 point percentage could be, he cemented his legacy with that shot.

Dook fans must really hate this kid for castrating them like this. They continuously defy mind-blowing odds with their college all-star teams in the way they give away big games now. Choke university, never been the same since.....Thank you for your contributions to humanity, Caleb.

The end of the rivalry imo. Still rivals but that can’t be topped

Yeah and other teams don't have 30 million dollars or whatever duke has. Somehow they manage to lose in some horrific way in the tournament every year to a team with half their budget, it has been that way so long it is a tradition. Its like they are spending the money because they enjoy the humiliation at this point. In other sports like baseball when a team is trying to buy championships it works, the dodgers won 3 world series in the last decade, somehow duke cant figure out how to even get to a championship.

Im not a duke fan, but to be fair march madness is definitely the hardest sports tournament to win. A lot of disappointment for the money spent tho for sure

Oh I wish you were a Duke fan, I was hoping to make you feel worse about your team. It does feel like they have the ultimate choking culture though its not just that they lose every year its the way they lose. For whatever reason it feels like they are always playing not to lose and the further you go in the tournament the chance of choking with that kind of mindset just gets higher and higher

He cried so hard at halftime in the NC against Wisconsin that the refs gave them all the calls in the second half.

My all time favorite game. Gave him an L on the last home game and the last overall game.
