Duquesne Game Thoughts

With a little research, here is what I learned:

Duquesne is 9-5 overall and 0-2 in conference, A-10. I see no significant wins on their schedule.

Dusan Mahorcic, David Dixon and Jakub Necas have either parents that played professional basketball in Europe or siblings who played college basketball in the states.

Andy Barba is the founder of "Goat Brand Clothing". He ran the company for 7 years before selling it. Coincidentally, his major is entrepreneurship.

Hassan Drame and Fousseyni Drame are twins.

The head coach is Keith Drambot. He is in his 7th year at Duquesne. Previously, he coached at Akron for 7 years. He was an assistant coach at Central Michigan, Ashland and Tiffin. Keith Drambot was a high school head coach at Akron St. Vincent - St. Mary High School where he coach LeBron James as a freshman and sophomore.

The Dayton versus Duquesne tilt will be played in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania at the UPMC Cooper Fieldhouse. This game is "sold out" with a seating capacity of 3,500. This arena was renovated in 2021.

Based upon research of the last couple of games, Duquesne is playing 6 players approximately 10 minutes per game. Those players are: Dae Dae Grant 6'2" SR, Jimmy Clark 6'3 SR, Kareem Rozier 5'9" SO, Andrei Sayrasov 6'7" GR, David Dixon 6'9" SO and Fousseyni Drame 6'7" GR. Also, on the roster are: Mahorcic 6'10", Barre 6'9", Necas 6'8, and Hronsky 6'8 but they aren't getting many minutes.
