Once again both programs bring in a bunch of talented guys. The real test is playing as a team. Every year we get to watch great coaches and great players figure out the winning formula.

Nothing skewed. Travis, though new to their team, isn't an incoming freshman. He's already been included in a ranking (2014). Kentucky may have a better team, but Duke has the better incoming recruits (on paper). Of course they will say it's skewed. They finished 2nd.

It skews IMO because even though Travis is not a freshman, he is a very valuable AND experienced NEWCOMER to Ky. Dare say he brings more of a ppg avg higher than our returnees combined. OFC

Don’t think he averages more than Bolden, Javin and AOC combined. Actually wouldn’t be surprised if Bolden averages more than Reid. Kentucky will be playing 10 guys that play 10 minutes plus/game.

Well put him in a separate category that doesn't include *incoming* freshmen

Still hes a returning player who brings more true game experience than anyone we have. More of an IMPACT player returning at this juncture! OFC

The Duke versus Kentucky matchup is the best the NCAA can provide in terms of national entertainment. The hype for that first game is going to be insane. I can’t wait for RJ Barrett to seal his #1 pick in the very first game of his career. Zion will be playing at 105%.

I like our team better than Kentucky’s team. RJ, Cam and Zion are better than anyone on Kentucky’s team. Tre Jones compliments those three and Bolden at 6’11 250 with a 7’6 wing span is a natural center that can protect the rim. AOC, Baker and Whiite all can knock down the three ball and are all 6-6 to 6-7 range. Javin at 6’10 can rebound and defend.

Kentucky is deeper overall, but they have no stars. They have 3 point guards which isn’t ideal. PJ Washington and Ried Travis are similar players undersized power forwards wirh limited athletic ability and upside.

Whenever a Kentucky fan tries talking smack to you just say to them 38-1, they will quickly go into the fetal position them ***** cats or you can say NIT 2013 never forget.

Oh absolutely it’s always the world against Kentucky when they lose, it’s not because they are not good or because they lost fair and square lol. It’s all a major conspiracy!!!! Those idiot fans should all be placed in a psych ward.

Gotta love Kentucky fans. Go to rupp rafters and you’ll see duke mentioned in every single thread. It’s embarrassing for them really. They act like Maryland fans except they never even played in our conference.

They would never play in th ACC as well as Kansas because neither of those pretenders want to risk going below .500 again and left out of the NCAA tournament. They enjoy beating up on the weak Sec and Big 12 conferences, scared losers.

Honestly I just wish they’d switch to our conference. Their team wouldn’t have even made the tournament last year had they played a real schedule.

We seem to have a lot of fans obsessed with not only Kentucky, but recruiting rankings, draft projections, and Luke Maye.
Other than that, they're focused on Duke winning.

I honestly think UK won't be that great this year. They don't have a star. They are very deep, but they don't have anyone as good as RJ, Zion, or Cam.


Anyone got any word on when Vernon Carey/ Cole Anthony will be committing to Duke?? I'd say it's safe to say that Duke ends with yet another #1 recruiting class. K is DOMINATING the recruiting trail.
Another thought: I think our 3 stud freshman all go in the lottery along with Tre and Marques being 1st rounders. I think Marques has a big-time year.

My last random thought is how goofy Luke Maye looks. I mean......the guy looks like he should be painting the interior of my apartment, not making boring 16 foot jumpers. Has the guy ever dunked in his life??? Glad he's not a Dukie...couldn't imagine how much my peers would laugh at Duke.

That's interesting. I figured your apartment couldn't be painted cause it's covered with mirrors.
