I'm not sure if they'll do any sort of moment of silence or anything like that.

It'll almost be like a pregame jitters kinda thingso they'll have to shake it off.

Once the game gets going i'msurk at hand.

It is a huge game like you mentioned being vs.

Duke.

Im really hoping for everyone involved, just try and put that aside for the time being and focus on beating duke.

Zach says: mostly it'll just be coach boeheim that would be affected but hes been doing this for so long im sure he can turn the corner and move on but heopfully we have a sort of moment of silence before the gamethat would be a good way to the guy who was killed.
