Duke’s Jon Scheyer speaks up on Rodney Hood’s role after crushing Army

The Duke Blue Devils opened the season at the top of ClutchPoints Preseason Top 25 , and they looked the part after convincing 84-50 win over Army in their season opener. A familiar face was spotted on the Duke bench during the game: former Blue Devil Rodney Hood. Afterwards, Duke head coach Jon Scheyer clarified Hood’s role on the team this season. As Conor O’Neill reported on X, formerly Twitter, Hood is back in an intern coaching role. Rodney Hood played just one season at Duke (in 2013-14) after transferring from Mississippi State.
