With the first North Carolina/Duke game this week, who are the Ten Biggest Duke Villains?

What do you think of when you think of Duke?

Do you think of great championship basketball?

No of course not. You read articles on Keeping it Heel.

Instead, you think of dirty plays, aggravating players, and a coach in a suit who meanders the sidelines waiting to make his next move. In short, if you are like me and most Carolina fans, you think of Villains.

So with it being the week of the first Duke-Carolina game of the season, here are 10 villains from Durham or the 10 Duke guys I detest the most.

Note: Coach K did not make this list as he is a coach and not a player. Though continue to feel free to vilify him just as equally.

Well that concludes my list of the top 10 Duke Villains. Of course lots of other classic villains couldn’t make the cut. However, that is what happens when a team is coached by the same super-villain mastermind of All-Time for the past 37 years. Whoever replaces Coach K will surely have some rather large demonic boots to fill.

What did you think of the top 10 Villains? Is someone missing? Should others be higher or lower? Let us know in the comments below.
