Obviously would have loved for him to come here, and I think it’d be better for his skill development if he did, but I’m not at all surprised or betrayed that he chose Duke We lost and we got a silver medal. Sucks to lose and silver medals mean nothing. But in this case, UConn’s name was in the headlines with the #1 recruit for a long time. If Castle truly is a 1 and done high lottery pick, we will be in the mix for top guys in the long term. I trust the staff to figure out the short term issues in the meantime. And given our track record, the top guys are more nice-to-have instead of required for winning anyway Best of luck to Cooper. Hope he averages 25 a game and then promptly loses in the second round of the tournament. Looking forward to seeing him in the NBA [/QUOTE]
