It has been more than 48 hours since Duke basketball lost to Virginia, but Jon Scheyer is still upset over a blown call that likely cost his team the game. The 35-year-old coach made that abundantly clear on Monday.
Scheyer, in his first year as head coach at his alma mater, has led the Blue Devils to an 17-8 record through their first 25 games. They are slated to be somewhere around a seven-seed in the NCAA Tournament at this current point of the season, but are on the heels of a two-game losing streak.
