Synopsis
"Duke Still Sucks: More Completely Unbiased Thoughts About the Most Evil Team on Planet Earth" is a satirical sequel to the 2012 book "Duke Sucks," written by Andy Bagwell and Reed Tucker. Picking up roughly a decade later, it continues the irreverent, one-sided rant against Duke University's men's basketball program, framing the Blue Devils as the most despised and "evil" team in college sports with tongue firmly in cheek.
The authors deliver a humorous takedown that builds on the original's arguments, incorporating updated gripes from the post-2012 era of Duke basketball. They mock elements like the team's self-proclaimed "Brotherhood" slogan, Coach Mike Krzyzewski's legacy and eventual retirement, the behavior of players and fans (including the Cameron Crazies), perceived entitlement, media favoritism, and the program's ongoing success that fuels widespread loathing among rival fans—especially those from nearby North Carolina.
Written in a lighthearted, exaggerated style aimed squarely at Duke haters (particularly UNC Tar Heels supporters), the book reinforces the idea that the intense animosity toward the Blue Devils is not only justified but a near-religious experience for many hoops fans. It offers fresh "evidence" in the form of anecdotes, critiques of specific games or eras, and plenty of playful jabs, all while maintaining the original's evenhanded claim of complete unbiased objectivity in proving Duke's villainy. At under 200 pages, it's a quick, fun read for anyone who enjoys college basketball rivalries served with heavy doses of sarcasm.
Overall, it serves as an affectionate update for those who already view Duke as insufferable floor-slappers and fist-pumpers, while delivering more reasons to cheer against them in March Madness and beyond.
