Josh, Dustin, and Raul are joined by Brian Geisinger of 247Sports and the Buzz Beat Podcast for a deep dive on Duke's season so far. At 7-3, Duke has gotten off to a slower start than predicted. Brian gives his thoughts on the issues with the team so far and where they can improve.

- Sean Stewart's potential to replace some of Dereck Lively's vertical spacing and rim pressure
- Maximizing Caleb Foster and Jared McCain at the same time
- Foster's impact on pace of play
- McCain's defensive struggles
- Potential adjustments to the defense to improve backline help
- Zone defense vs. drop vs. Kyle Filipowski at the level of the screen

Lastly, they look ahead to Duke's big matchup with Baylor. Can Duke contain and/or score with the best offense in the country?
