Episode 971: Duquesne head coach Dru Joyce

Marching to Madness

Coach Dru Joyce debuted on MTM as he was the associate head coach to Coach Keith Dambrot who retired after the 23-24 campaign and after a 40-year career. Joyce’s ability was a key concept in last season’s 25-12 record, A-10 Tournament championship, and the Dukes’ 71-67 win over BYU in the first round of the NCAA Tournament. He is a lifelong friend of NBA superstar Lebron James as LBJ broke the news on social media of Coach Joyce’s move to the head coaching position.
