#676 - Catching Up With Ryan Young!
from Duke Basketball Roundup · host Duke Basketball Roundup
While the Duke Blue Devils get an earned holiday break, the DBR Podcast crew is still hard at work. On Episode 676, we welcome back Ryan Young to the show for an awesome discussion! Ryan Young has graduated from Fuqua and is in the real world, and we figured it was a great time to catch up with the beloved former center to see what he’s been up to since he got his Fuqua degree. He’s been able to watch several games in person this season as a fan, so we naturally get his thoughts on the current team, how they’ve been doing, and how he would have fit in the squad had he possessed one final year of eligibility. We also get into the current state of college basketball, from the transfer portal to growing NIL numbers and how teams are affected. Of course, Ryan has a unique perspective as someone whose career started at Northwestern Wildcats as a freshman with no NIL and no transfer portal and ended with a Duke career with an extra year due to Covid and in a world where the transfer portal and NIL exists. He’s very candid with his thoughts on how the game has changed from the player’s perspective as well as the coach’s perspective, and it’s great to that he took the time to provide us with that insight.
