Where are we with this guy? Early on I felt good vibes as far as Duke having a great chance to land him but I see on 247 he is a 82% Kansas if I'm reading this right. I also see UK picking up ground with him. Don't know how true this is but I read on one of the boards that his parents are favoring Duke while he wants to go to UK.

I've heard the same thing about his parents liking Duke and him liking UK. I read an article recently that said he's coming to C2C which will be his 3rd trip to Duke according to the article. I've also heard that he's going to UK's BBM the night before he comes to C2C.

Listen to your parents young man, they know what is best for you! :) Originally I said that Bolden just didn't have that "Duke" look to him, and I still feel Kansas has the inside track on him. I was wrong about Gabriel, so maybe I am wrong about Bolden?!
If he is indeed coming to C2C, we must still have a pretty serious shot at him. Hopefully, C2C will have an impact on him and swing him our way. Like I said, listen to your parents Marques, trust them, I like them already!! ;)
Go Duke!!

The "listen to your parents" gives me a bad feeling in today's time. Kids these days tend to make their own decisions . Reminds me of Tony Parker. But hopefully he is one who listens to his parents if this is true.

We're in good shape either way. Duke recruits itself. The right kids will show up as long as K is around. We give them the tailored sales pitch and let those ready for the challenge decide on their own. I love it.

There are two conditions that I require to be excited about a recruit:
1. Duke wants the kid and extends an offer.
2. Kid accepts the offer and wants to play for Duke.

Both conditions need to be met. If young Mr. Bolden does not want to play for Duke then my interest is pretty minimal.
