On Episode 576, Jason is back from the slopes to join Donald as they preview tomorrow’s Duke Blue Devils game against the Syracuse Orange.

The Orange have a new coach, as Jim Boeheim has retired and Adrian Autry is now in charge. With that coaching change has come the switch from the 2-3 matchup zone to man-to-man on defense. It also has come with more tempo when they’re defending the ball. Donald and Jason go through the Orange’s metrics, who they’ve played, and which players Duke should pay attention to when they take the floor.

After the break, we discuss the tweet from Mark Mitchell’s dad that came in the late hours after the victory over Queens. The tweet caused a lot of confusion among the Duke fanbase, but Donald and Jason are here to take a measured approach on what it means and how Mark Mitchell can get back on track on the offensive end this season, particularly from beyond the arc.
