I’m aware this is a football thread but he chose Duke today over Illini Texas Louisville. Do the Illini miss out on Adam Miller next ?

Coach K can get any Chicago player he wants. Can’t think of many that had the grades that he didn’t get. He will get that kid from Rolling Meadows next.

Miller should be a slam dunk for Illinois since they sold their soul to the Irvins. Peoria used to be a pipeline for the Illini.

Yah, that’s why he choose Duke
Right. Duke has replaced Kentucky as the kings of the one-and-done player. IMO, they've sullied their academic reputation by the practice. I always get a kick out of the canonization of Coach K by some in the media. He's as dirty as any other big time college basketball coach, if not more so.

Agreed.
Shame on the entire institution of Duke.
Especially with where he is in his career; he has the wins, the chamionships, etc. .....
He could have chosen the high road for the sake of the game that is allegedly so dear to him.
Instead he has chosen to be a John Calipari with a bad back.
Had he battled to win "the right way" he would have been immortalized as a man of true character instead of just another character.

I'm by no means a Duke guy or Coach K supporter, but at least he's doing it at the same school. Calipari and Pitino are the worst in my opinion.

Louisville will make a strong push on Miller, if they haven't already. Underwood will figure out how to bungle that one.
