(10/27/15 4:57am)

The late Stuart Scott was honored at his alma mater Friday when the iconic SportsCenter host was inducted into the North Carolina Journalism Hall of Fame—a powerful moment regardless of where you stand in the Tobacco Road Rivalry. His recognition was meaningful in many ways—from the public beatdown he inflicted on cancer to the way he shaped how we watch and listen to sports highlights in his role at ESPN. Even the most casual of sports fans knows Scott’s famous catchphrase, “Booyah.”

Changes abound for Duke football this year, both on and of the field. Quarterback Thomas Sirk has stepped in for the departed Anthony Boone and quickly ignited the Duke offense, posting an impressive performance—27 of 40 for 289 yards and two touchdowns—in the team’s dominant 37-7 victory at Tulane last week.
