Interview – David Reeves Talks Big Plays

2013 Chick-fil-A Bowl: Duke WR David Reeves with the ridiculous tip-toe  down the sidelines for the TD (GIF)
How he stayed inbounds and scored a touchdown on this play probably violated several laws of physics.

David Reeves was kind enough to take some time from his day to talk about his knack for big plays, his time at Duke, his pro career, Duke football today and what he’s been up to during the last several years. We talked about Miami, too – consider yourself forewarned.

If you don’t remember his amazing catch against A&M in the 2013 Peach Bowl, you can see it here. You’ll be wondering just how in the world he made that play. I’ve seen it a million times and still can’t believe he stayed inbounds. And scored.

This was a fun talk with a good guy. Thanks again, David, for taking time to speak with us.

Not long after that interview, Carlos expressed interest in coming back to talk about the 2012-2015 bowl games. All four of them. And when you get a chance to talk Duke bowls, you say “Yes!” It took some time to get through them all, the run time is close to two hours, but it’s well worth it. We learn a lot about some big games and big plays that culminated in a win over Indiana in the Pinstripe Bowl in 2015.

A great win. And, fun fact, if you watch the replay on YouTube, you’ll see a moment on the sidelines where Sirk, Jones and Harris are all on screen.

In addition to the bowl games, we get into each of the four seasons and cover some big wins including one from 2012.
