What is the story about?
Here’s
a bit of good news we didn’t expect: Duke quarterback Darian Mensah will return next season.
We’re really surprised. First, he could obviously have entered the draft, but second, he had a great year and there was a chance that a team from, say, the Situational Ethics Conference might have poached him.
Fortunately, that didn’t happen and that gives Duke a chance to really build on this past season.
