These kids are saying "Damnit if Duke not going to recruit me then I'm going pro!" That's two years in a row top 5 players that Duke turned down went pro. Jalen Green was begging for Duke to recruit him. RJ Hampton only wanted to come to Duke and nowhere else. We are the key to keeping college basketball relevant. Koach got the whole world in his hands

You do know we can't get everyone, and that not all kids are a good fit. Doesn't matter how talented they are. Some do, some don't, no matter what you say about "Koach."

He should probably just tell them if they come to Duke he'll let them roll the ball out and play. That'll bring them all in.

I’m being sarcastic smh. My point is everybody want to be apart of Duke and for some if they can’t then they rather not go to any other college. We only get the select few (minus josh Hairston) that we want. People chase Duke. Y’all be so quick to defend Coach K when there’s nothing to defend. It was a setup for people like you

What backlash? It’s not a diss to our recruiting. It’s just me saying the last two years two elite players pretty much said Duke or pros. That tells you how special it is to get recruited by Duke

He has to be paying some of you. Y’all quick to defend him when there’s no need to defend haha. It was a setup to see how some of you respond. Maybe you didn’t understand the last sentence when I said he has the world in his hands. The college basketball world. Meaning elite players are deciding between Duke and NBA. We are the lifeline of college basketball

I read you wrong then. Not used to you complimenting the program and K in the same post.
Your posts usually go one of several ways:
It’s either Koach’s fault we’ve lost, OR
We play to the competition.

Carry on

Smh. I just don’t sugarcoat like others. I blame who deserves blame. He not above blame. And I always compliment the program. I’m probably the most optimistic person on here. When y’all panicking after January losses I keep saying we will be just fine.

The backlash of the 1st 3 responses.

I did take your initial post as sarcasm, dissing other programs, certainly not ours.
