    Bolden trending for Duke

    Well I'm glad to see we agree that you don't know anything, I suspect that's a sentiment widely held on this board. I'm comfy throwing kindness out the door when it comes to you and Crank, two blowhards who are frankly embarrassing to the Duke name. If only competence was a pre-requisite for...

    Bolden trending for Duke

    For sure, here's ESPN's summary: ESPN Analyst Updated 01/20/2016 Strengths: Bolden is a long and mobile post that runs the floor extremely well. He has excellent touch in and around the lane where he can score with either hand with excellent touch and body control for his size and Bolden loves...

    Bolden trending for Duke

    Or like another poster on this site you have no inside information but feel comfortable being rude and dismissive to folks with contrary opinions. A know-it-all who doesn't actually know anything just looks foolish. Humility and kindness go a long way, something I'd think a mod would encourage...

    Bolden trending for Duke

    Here's some nice conversations around Bolden and Tatum, from the Scout guys: http://www.scout.com/college/basketball/recruiting/story/1656072-mcds-aa-practice-standouts

    We're now tied with UK in Bolden's crystal ball, and with 5 of the last 6 picks, including one from a Duke insider and one from a UK Sea of Blue writer. http://247sports.com/PlayerInstitution/Marques-Bolden-at-DeSoto-56816/CurrentExpertPredictions After the Jamaal Murray to Oregon stampede last...

    I believe the rumor started from this article by Adam Rowe. If you have a 247 subscription you can read specifics: http://duke.247sports.com/Article/Intel-Duke-Basketball-Offseason-Roster-Moves-Coming-44505233

    Apparently the reason why Adam Rowe switched his Bolden pick is because someone is leaving Duke. The specifics are behind a paywall, but the speculation is Thorton. Why that makes Bolden more likely isn't clear to me...

    Adam Rowe just moved his pick to Duke. We're up to 40% in the ever reliable crystal ball! ! :-)

    You could be right, but not 'everyone knows it.' A few days ago Ben Roberts (who wrote that article and is more plugged into UK recruiting than almost anyone) said the below: Ben Roberts ‏@NextCats Mar 23 @BHillwash Kind of thinking Duke right now. Some people telling me Duke. Some people...

    I'm just adding info from whatever sources I come across. For those who prefer only approved sources, they're welcome to block my posts, I honestly couldn't care less.

    I think you could argue that several players on this year's team - DT, MJ, LK, CJ - were asked to do more than they realistically could. For me the biggest disappointment this year was that from early Jan through the S16, these 4 seemed to not improve or even regressed, and this was likely from...

    Good Season Guys - Honest thoughts on K and Brooks

    As a Duke alum I've been surprised and disappointed by some recent reactions on this board. There's a strain of moral relativism - around Grayson's tripping, Simmons quitting on his team, Coach K's comments to Brooks and subsequent prevarication - that I simply disagree with. I suspect - and...

    Ryan Noel (KU) is one of the more knowledgeable crystal ballers. He just picked Duke for Bolden. Cal visiting Bolden yesterday could be good for UK (seal the deal) or good for us (Cal worried he's leaning Duke). May or may not come to Duke but definitely feels like things are still in play...

    Wow, what a bum.

    Doesn't this lend credence to the rumor that LSU turned down the NIT bid because they knew Simmons was leaving? That's so selfish if true - I'm sure some of the upperclassmen wanted to play and this shows such disrespect. Plus this hurts their APR. Anyone who thinks this is no biggie just...
