The Owls will now play Saturday and Sunday, which is obviously tough, but given the situation, FAU may get a financial bonus. Duke tried to sell a home game but found no takers. It’s possible that Florida Atlantic may get a bonus out of it, but that hasn’t been announced if so.No one has said specifically what happened, but Duke and North Texas seem to be on the same side, with nearly identical statements, so you get the sense that the organizers of “The Foundry Classic” screwed up somehow.All’s well that ends well, more or less, but now the Blue Devils will pay an unfamiliar opponent on short notice and with little preparation. If Kara Lawson is as smart as she seems to be, she’ll sell this as an opportunity to get ready for tournament conditions.<ul><li>Duke women’s basketball trip to Texas for Sunday game canceled.
