Over the years, basketball has helped define Duke as a top-tier institution for collegiate athletics. Since 1959, Duke has produced basketball team posters to depict the season’s player lineup and defining season motto. Mike Krzyzewski (Coach K) assumed the role of head coach in 1980, and Carol "Mickie" Krzyzewski, Coach K’s wife, started the tradition of directing themed posters for each team.

Worn by Duke alumni during World War II, these military patches represent branches of the U.S. military: Army, Air Force, Marine Corps, and Navy. Many students gained military training by joining divisions like the Duke Naval Reserves Officer Training Corps and the 65th General Hospital Unit. Cooperative relationships with the government fostered a surge in engineering studies and advanced experimental research in chemistry, medicine, and other disciplines. Identifying markers in each of the patches include the Navy’s ship wheel, the Marines’ anchor and seahorse, and an Air Force troop carrier plane.
