The other site (I'm pretty sure) - something to do with the filter rejecting the word Ri-v-als

I actually think this meteoric rise may be good for us in getting Wenyen. Before Duke and UK got involved it was us along with a plethora of other good programs that get mainly 3-4 year guys. Yet now that his list is down to 5, two of which are Duke and UK, we stand out as his true best option in terms of developing his talent. His meteoric rise is probably a surprise to himself as well, I'm sure WG didn't see himself as a one-and-done NBA player one year ago when coaches just started recruiting him, and for that reason I don't think he goes to the two programs who have shown they are now fully committed to the OAD game.

Hopefully he realizes that if he goes there, he will not play and develop like he needs to if he actually wants to play in the league. If he is mesmerized by the bright lights and attention, then I am willing to make a wager that he doesn't finish his college career there. He'd just be the next Wiltjer or Sulaimon, a talented player that simply needed some time to grow but his coach had other plans.

both gabriel and luol deng are from south sudan. That cant possibly be a pitch for K, i'm almost 100% Deng is not close to the program at all after that whole fiasco from the school paper.

If foreign-born success stories is what he is looking for, then few can compete with UConn over the last quarter century or so.

After reading that article, I just feel sad for Providence. Is that their angle? Please come here because we'll be really bad and very sad without you...

They never recruited over Dunn....ha....they couldn't if they tried.

I mean let's be honest PC is bound to be "first" with a lot more recruits than any of the others named on his last. I am sure they understand they need to be involved with the next level at best as getting a Top 20 stud is more than likely not going to happen there anymore. But at the same time Cooley's a solid guy and is smart enough to try to win in New England when possible.

Sounds very intelligent and well spoken. High character kid. Not much new info in the video, but his requirements of good coach relationship, fast style of play and history of success all seem checked off on our list!

 

[David 76]

All the recruits KO is after seem sincere, don't have big egos, nice kids.

Can Harry Giles please just commit to duke already? I think we have this in the bag ONCE that happens.

I don't think this is true at all. There's no reason why Duke can't have a Tatum, Gabriel, and Giles frontcourt.

Well I don't think Chase Jeter is a one-and-done so that could complicate things, and maybe Brandon Ingram stays, who knows

This is far from a Duke verbal leading to WG to UConn scenario.

Time to elaborate just a bit?

Sounds like we've got some ground to make up.

Our under armour friends are putting in work. Duke in driver's seat for sure at the moment. KO in full hunt, but on outside looking in at this moment.
