Growing up a college basketball fan in New England in the 80s, Duke was my dream school.  No great reason - I just fell for Phil Henderson, Danny Ferry, Quin Snyder, the Cameron Crazies, and yes, Coach K.  Then came Laettner and Grant Hill, and I was hooked.  In 1992, I got a dream opportunity to spend a summer at Duke taking classes and, to my great surprise, I hated it.  The campus is beautiful but the students were douchy and Durham leaves a lot to be desired.  Great school, great tradition, but it wasn’t home.  My “dream” school from afar was not so dreamy up close, living there night in night out.  From that summer forward, I converted to UConn hoops.  Although I got into Duke, I went somewhere else (in New England) and then to UConn for grad school in time for the ‘99 title where I watched from Gampel.  To this date, I hate Duke.

If history repeats itself, Flagg is not going to Duke (though Providence may still be an option).
