Bradley gets the Blue Devils on their Schedule

In an exciting piece of news Bradley has secured a game with last year's National Champion Duke Blue Devils!  As far as I can tell it's just an away game... It was never likely we'd get a home-and-home with Duke, or a two-for-one deal for that matter.  According to reports Coach Les was able to leverage his relationships in the Duke organization to arrange the game.  My hope is that he will be able to leverage them again in the future for the possibility of playing them at a neutral site-- such as in Chicago (a recruiting boon for both programs).  Actually, scratch that, my hope is that we kick Duke right in the ass which would mean they'd never play us by choice again... But assuming we lose the game at Cameron, a return game at a neutral site would be great.  As far as that goes, it's great news for a team like Bradley however you cut it.  TV details have not been announced yet, but I hope we get to play on the Deuce, or on ESPN Prime for that matter.
