Watched some highlights of dj steward and i really liked what i saw. Can shoot it and is pretty athletic as well. Will be able to operate at both guard spots. Obviously not the star power of someone like Boston but I’d be all in on him if we can’t get Boston. Would be awesome to land both.
It would be amazing if we dont get Boston, because I believe Duke had been on him the longest from the 20 the class.

I agree and he’s been the one I’ve wanted to most from this class but all the insiders (including dukes for the most part) are picking him to UK. Obviously things can change but it is very interesting that we aren’t the so called front runners for him anymore.

I actually wanted Jalen Johnson the most! So happy we got him, but yea it’s very weird that Boston is favored to go to uk considering we have been on him the longest. He would actually be suited better at Duke because Johnson and Roach would make him a better player.

Totally agree. In your opinion do you think we can land both him and dj steward? Cause i really want them both now but i don’t see how steward comes if Boston does.

I cant remember which poster it was but they posted somewhere in a thread that Steward was very happy with the Duke offer, and that he would come regardless of Boston’s decision. I really don’t know much about Steward to be honest. He’s a new name that has popped up on Duke’s radar.

I can't keep up with everything going on in recruiting. We've now offered Kuminga and Clarke (or we're about to), they both may reclassify, we're supposedly very strong with both, how might this affect guys already in the class that we've been recruiting...

Still a lot of conjecture I know.

We have now offered Kuminga, baldwin and AJ griffin who are all small forwards and we’re bound to offer Terrance Clarke who is 6-7 and can play sg or sf. Only other offer is Banchero. Sort of interesting to see so much interest at the sf spot and not much anywhere else.

Does anyone have any idea of what prospects hof coach roy williams has turned down. That would give us a better idea of who's available. OFC

Well Duke does have offers out to Walker Kessler, Mark WIlliams and Henry Coleman, so small forward isn't the only position of interest.

Clarke may reclassify and one of those other guys might as well.

This whole thing with 19 year old seniors is becoming much more prevalent. In my opinion (worth nothing of course) it's too old to still be in high school. Of course a lot of these kids move around a lot, undoubtedly basketball driven, so who knows what kind of high school education they get. Considering how few make a living from basketball, it's another example of how the system is broken but no one seems to care.

This could possibly explain the Boston to KY noise because if Clarke reclassifies, Boston has expressed interest in teaming up with Clarke and uk seems like a strong candidate for Clarke. Maybe if Clarke doesn’t reclassify, Duke will get Boston.

I feel like I’d rather have Boston. But i don’t really know Clarke’s game.

If Duke hasn’t gotten a commit from Boston and Clarke announces his reclassification, I think Duke flies to the top spot for him.

The offer to Kuminga is huge. Dude is easily the best player in 2021 and Patrick Baldwin is in that class.

Let me add that I am no insider... just someone who reads too much about this stuff I guess. Not my intention to misrepresent myself.

Always appreciative of those who are in the know, so to speak, sharing what they can.

Made kesslers top 6. Everyone thought Georgia was the leader for awhile and they were one of our biggest competition for him and they didn’t even make the list.
