Um, Kennard is the real deal. Grayson Allen can ball (though he might go to the NBA too actually). They'll be fine. Won't be what they were, but they will still be good.

Sounds like UK might miss on all their big targets. Kind of a bummer. Maybe that will give Cal an excuse to pick up some guys to stick around and develop and just see what happens next year?

I really want Ingram, Brown, and/or Newman.
 
Kennard is really good. That dude is just being North Carolina hillbilly homer. Allen can ball. They may not be great, but they will win more than 10 games.

Cal said on his twitter he wants 2-3 more, but who knows how much WWW have given him to spend this year.
 
Read a good breakdown on Duke about next year:

Plumlee/Jefferson

Jeter- top recruit.
Obi- Rice transfer, probably just rotational depth
Jones
Allen
Kennard- I like him
Justin Robinson (David's son). probably redshirt

Guys they are after:

Ingram
Thornton-This guy might be Jones replaceme

Evan Daniels said Thornton may not reclassify.

Only other recruits they've offered are Maker and Ingram.

Ideally Thornton stays in 16, neither Ingram/Maker go there but that wont happen.
 
Next season for Duke is all about setting up for hopefully a monster 2017 recruiting class. I'd be surprised if any of their current commits are one and done so this season is all about building the foundation for the 2017 team. I'm hopeful that Ingram and Thornton join this year's class but we'll see. Perfect world would see those two plus adding in Murray.

Whats the dope on Gill, Brule? Visiting GEorgetown. Saw he was top 50 recruit.

He was a former top 50 guy, I think? Somewhere around there anyway but he just bombed.....couldn't shoot and couldn't play a lick of D. Don't really see either of those things changing but maybe getting out of Louisville will help him. Dude is a BRUTAL shooter

Yeah, he was top 50. Georgetown has a history of guys like this that are just good athletes. Some learned how to shoot, some didn't.

Its wild that he can't shoot. Dude was an insane scorer in high school. Think he drop 9 3s in a game.

Hes also friends with another Louisville reject at Georgetown in Akoy and good friends with Copeland from high school so I fully expect him to commit.

Akoy! Forgot you guys had him......yeah, he's a good athlete but his shot is ugly and most of the time it looks like it never has a chance. I don't know if he can fix it or not, he should be a good defender based on his length but he's horrible. Hopefully he turns it around, he wasn't a bad kid or anything.
