Cooper Flagg Commits to Duke

[connVA]

If his heart is set on playing for an underperforming coach, he ought to decommit and go play for a more experienced underperforming coach at UK

 

[HooperScooper]

Winning and losing… It matters not. It’s all about the brotherhood, you know!

And creepy babies!

And the hugs.

 

[90BSEE]

But he has always dreamed of playing for Duke! I thought he was smart. But he is just unoriginal.

 

[jibsey]

Any chance he rethinks?

 

[90BSEE]

Didn't his parents move across the street from the Duke campus?

 

[BGesus4]

Any chance he rethinks?

Yeah, trilly just tweeted a dog sled, two lunar eclipses and the Turkish flag

Dream school under Coach K is not the same as dream school under Coach JS, but it will be a nice learning experience for him.

Yeah everyone needs to learn how to lose.

 

[CONN78SEJ]

Only for one year. Lol

 

[giddyup]

screw Flagg. Another kid looking for a brand name instead of real game.

 

[The Viking]

He wanted to play for a coaching staff that he was comfortable with and a coach who would hold him accountable.
What a load of crap.

That is very true. Scheyer was horrible today. Was out coached being late to make any adjustments and having a confused look on his face through out the game. Perhaps Duke has a losing season and they fire him Flagg can always reconsider. But would we want him at this point. I am trying not to watch when he is on tv, but it’s hard not to. He embodies everything you would look for in a 2023 basketball player. A true 6’9” with 7’ wingspan. Can play and guard at least three positions maybe four. He shoots well has ++ jumping ability plays ridiculous defense especially off ball blocking shots and getting in passing lanes.

We all heal differently. Every chance I get I want to point out that he picked a clueless HC over a HC who is going to the be in the HoF. But if the mods decide to lock the thread that is fine with me. I want to move past it but until his time is over at Dook there will be constant reminders.

Scheyer isn't going to last past next year unless he really ups his game.

 

[TheChamps990411]

Wait, Duke lost again? To GTech? Lol!

Coach K gave a brief statement on the job Scheyer is doing.

 

[UCTitleTown]

Flagg is the typical Dukie B. He will fit in perfectly there. You have one year in school you'd think winning would mean something. Next. I'd love to get back in with V.J. Edgecomb though.

I wonder. Theyd be smart to just cut him but I’m skeptical with his place in the program and him being K’s handpicked successor. Firing him after two seasons with the recruiting class he has coming in would cause major waves within the program.

On a related note, has the handpicked successor thing ever worked at a top program?

Yeah. us. For awhile. National Championship.

 

[willie99]

You mean it takes more than highly regarded classes to win?

As UConn fans, we should know this by now. One other fan base knows this as well as we do, UK, just from a different perspective
