The Blue Devils return home from playing Kansas in the Champions Classic to play the Delaware Blue Hens on Friday.
Duke has a bit of a tie with Delaware as that’s where Mike Brey went after he left Mike Krzyzewski’s staff in 1995 before moving on to Notre Dame.
Delaware is currently 1-1, with a fairly meaningless win over Wilmington University and a 75-71 loss to Air Force, which is off to a poor start, having lost to Bowling Green and Texas A&M-Commerce. But that doesn't mean Delaware can’t play.
They are coached by Martin Ingelsby, who played for Mike Brey and also was an Irish assistant before taking his old boss’s job at Delaware.
