Less than a week after warning us about the dangers of lionizing coaches to the point where they were bigger than the institutions they represent, the media went ahead and lionzed a coach to the point where he is bigger than the institution he represents.
Mike Krzyzewski became the winningest men's ...

The Cleveland Cavaliers made Duke guard Kyrie Irving the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft Thursday night, and we're all happy for him. But don't be surprised if this doesn't work out, Cavs fans, and it's not just because you're from Cleveland or we have no idea what Irving's ...

You didn't really think Duke was going to go undefeated or something this year, did you? Surely, you know better than that.
But, naturally, as one of the most talented teams in the country with Nolan Smith, Kyle Singler and freshman sensation Kyrie Irving, mixed in with a very down ACC ...

We're not well-versed in the legal system here at Rumors and Rants, which is why we "employ" an official legal counsel, Booter. (His work is strictly pro bono, though I am not sure whether or not he is pro-Bono one way or the other).
Despite my lack of time researching the ...

In one of those rare weeks where it seems like everything is going on at once in the sports world, I have determined that it is better to say a little bit about everything on my mind rather than go in-depth about any of it.

We probably should have seen this coming. It wasn't possible, after all, for another Curry to spend his college basketball career at a mid-major, now was it?
News came in the last week or so that Stephen Curry's little brother, Seth, was going to transfer from Liberty in favor of a ...

It's just plain wrong Boise State and Ball State can go undefeated, win their respective conferences, and not get into the BCS. What makes it ironic is it'll be another undefeated non-BCS team (Utah) that's taking their place.
Once again, we've learned exactly what makes the BCS so shitty. Instead of ...

We've been hearing for well over a year now that J.J. Redick was unhappy with the Orlando Magic. Hey J.J., you think you're unhappy? Imagine how thrilled the Magic are to have you. I'm sure they love the fact that they spent the 11th pick in the 2006 NBA Draft ...

Er, morning everyone. Just got up after a long night and I sit down on my couch to find my beloved Hoosiers down 7 to Minny in the second quarter. You know, because fast spread teams like IU have trouble playing in domes. Our offense lends itself much more to ...

Once in a great while, you come across a story that makes you wish everyone involved had been aboard the Hindenburg. This is one of those stories.
Andrew Giuliani, the son of former New York mayor/sort-of presidential candidate Rudy Giuliani, is suing Duke University because he was kicked off the golf ...
