Bagley Declares

[Duke1783]

no surprise of course but his one great year at Duke deserves a final thread. I don’t think I will miss a one and done player at Duke like I’ll miss Bags. Duke fans saw some great moments!

 

[DukeRulesBasketball]

Congrats Marvin! Really gonna miss him. He was so much fun to watch!

 

[MyDudeG_rivals]

Happy to have had him for as long as we did! One of the best freshman seasons ever. Wish him luck moving forward.

 

[Mpm277]

Absolutely shocked.

 

[Laettshow]

Thank you Marv. Really represented the program and brotherhood with great class.

Dan Dakich thinks he should stay and work on his selfishness

 

[HuffyJB]

One year of Bagley is a hell of a lot better than no years of Bagley.

 

[Ioliva]

I’m really going to miss watching him play.

Been saying this all year. Get Bagley 20 shots a game and Duke loses one or 2 games at the most.
The whole offense should have centered around getting him the ball. Yes Bagley needed to work on getting open and passing out of double teams but it is doubtful that Duke will have another post player this good in many a year.

I think there were many many times that we wanted to get the ball to him and just couldn't. That lane got really packed with him in there

What an awesome player to watch and root for. I’m sure glad we got to at least have him for a year. Wishing Marvin all the best in the league!

Go get'em young man.

 

[christophero]

Good luck sir and thank you. But there goes my fantasy of the 4 freshman having a press conference and unveiling t-shirts that say "unfinished business."

 

[JohnstonCDevil]

Bagley was an awesome talent. Can you imagine if we had him for 4 years, he would go out as one of the greatest ever. Thanks Marvin for the year you were here & good luck where ever you end up!!!

Great talent and great young man. Glad to have got to see him wear a Duke Jersey. Good luck young fella!
...gettin paid...gettin paid

 

[dukiejay]

He was and will continue to be a great representative of Duke. It was great having him this past season....can’t wait to watch him at the next level. Good luck, young man!

 

[tclark6]

I'm going to miss those hops! Best of everything to Bags!

 

[Louisville Crazie]

Was a pleasure watching him destroy the rims...now he can hand over that crown to Zion.

 

[WI#1Dukie22]

Marvin was incredibly special. I’m gonna miss this squad badly. I thought they had “it” headed into the tourney..... just becoming ready to discuss it.

 

[LONMUNU]

So fun to watch him play in a Duke uniform. What he did in one year was amazing. C ya at the next level son!

 

[skysdad]

Have a great career young man. Thanks for your with us. OFC

 

[nets on nets on nets]

One of my many favorites and I don’t care that he only played one year.

 

[FearTheBeard_rivals208808]

Good luck young man!

 

[dbav]

Proud of what he did in a Duke uniform. Good luck young man!

 

[Duke Bluu]

Kid wanted to win. Definitely will be missed. Good luck young man

 

[Canadian Dukie]

Good luck in your future young man,the only regret I have is that you didn't get more looks in the second half of the elite 8 game...I'm sure we'd still be playing if you had.

Or got the ball at the end of the 2nd half. Marvin is at least drawing a foul and making a free throw.

 

[AlanInNJ]

I loved his passion, energy and attitude. Good luck young man!

 

[HonkeyT]

Congratulations Marvin and that you for being a Blue Devil.

I think I will miss this young man the most, not because of the records he broke, the Awards he won, or the pure enjoyment he gave me this season, but because of the way he carried himself, and the way that he represented Duke. To me he carried the highest standard of a student/athlete.
I can't believe I won't get to see him again next year, but I sure am greatful for this year.
Go Duke!

Couldn't have said it better myself.

He will be an ambassador for the Duke basketball program for the next 15-20 years of his Hall-Of-Fame NBA career.
