DURHAM, N.C. – For the entire 2019 football season, Duke will don a “McGEE” helmet sticker in memory of former Blue Devil lettermen, coaches and twin brothers Jerry and Mike McGee, who passed away on January 6, 2019 and August 16, 2019, respectively.

The twins were born December 1, 1938 in Washington, D.C., and raised in Elizabeth City, N.C.

Jerry McGee lettered three seasons on the gridiron at Duke from 1958-60 and was a member of the Blue Devils' squad that defeated Arkansas, 7-6, in the Cotton Bowl on January 1, 1961.
