AZ fans are hoping its Duke. Not that Barrett can't play with him but they're similar.


Ya ive seen a lot of UK fans saying the same thing hoping it will help them with Barrett. I dont know how K/Capel/Scheyer can convince Barrett that he will have the ball in his hands enough with Jones and Reddish there. But apparently that is the plan for them. I doubt Duke lands both Reddish and Barrett, but im definitely not complaining with the start to this class with Reddish to go with Jones this early into this class.

Committed to Duke. Now from what Im hearing Duke is all in on a Reddish/Barrett wing combo. Doubt they pull it off but Capel/Scheyer have been on a roll when it comes to recruiting for Duke as of late with Duval/Bagley/Jones/Reddish so who knows.

Its probably going to be between Louisville and Indiana. If I were to say who I think leads right now its Louisville.

I am sure you understand this but Capel saved duke. His recruiting ability even if his coaching is iffy allowed k to adjust to the new era

Capel is the best recruiter in college basketball but I think to say he saved Duke is a little extreme. Duke won the NC and went to the Sweet 16 the two years prior to Capel coming back. Again hes been a massive boost in recruiting and is the main reason Duke gets so many OADs and without him Duke doesnt land the trio of Tyus/Jah/Justise and that means no title in 2015. But again its not like Duke needed saving before he came back, Duke was doing just fine. He has been a huge asset and addition, didnt save Duke though.

Kenny Payne is better, Duke has more complete staff now. I predict if Orlando Antigua comes back we will see a resurgence but Capel did save Duke. Because for a couple years they didn't try the getting the best players method. Duke took only squeaky clean guys, they never would of took Bagley prior. Not even sure they got that run of Chicago kids okafor and Parker without Capel because they had harder backgrounds. Image was duke was where white guys 4.0 or 4.0 GPA black guys. He rebranded them.

Does anyone else have a feeling that Bol Bol won't cut it?

I like that he is close to Shaqs son and probably getting the idea of how to train via shaq. He's going to Arizona and I question the defensive coaching there but he'll at least have a few things in his favor

You question the defensive coaching of Sean Miller? He's probably one of the 5 best defensive coaches in the entire NCAA.

Ya it was only a couple years ago Zona went back 2 back years with a top 3 defense. Even on their down years theyre still usually in the top 25 for defense. I dont think too many Zona fans are not happy with Miller's defensive coaching abilities.

From what I've seen I really like what Walker could amount to. Love Reddish's potential but only if he gets his motor straight. Other than that I'm not particularly high on this draft class yet but this might change with more exposure of the guys that helps us to further evaluate them as well as another year of improvement from them.
