DBR Bites #74 - George Mason Is Good

Don’t underestimate the Patriots

As they always do, the DBR Podcast brings you a preview of Duke’s next opponent. This time it is the George Mason Patriots. But, unlike other smaller conference teams, Duke has bitten off a serious challenge this time around. George Mason is good — they’d probably be a middle of the pack ACC team if they were in the conference— and they have a bunch of guys who used to play in power conferences who are just itching to put a major notch in their belt. This is a preview worth listening to as Duke could be in for a real challenge in this contest.

After the break, the podcast gets into the major recruiting news out of... UTAH? AJ Dybantsa, the top player in high school and one of the most effective scorers ever at the high school level, has picked BYU for his one year college career. On the one hand it is a surprising choice, but on the other hand $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$. Dybantsa is set to be the highest paid college basketball player of all time. The DBR Pod breaks down what this will mean for next season and for the future of NIL-driven recruiting.
