I look forward to him in the NBA. He needs to go there ASAP. Finish up at Duke later.

I think people have over reacted to him much of the season.

probably gonna come back to Duke after they lose in the Sweet 16 and cause me to be pissed off for a few days.
If he returns, his draft position drops (whatever it is now). He won't be putting up nearly the same numbers...IMO

He looked pretty lost out there last night going up against real athletes. I enjoyed watching him get brought down to earth. Not sure what his real draft position is. He won't shoot that well at the next level.

absolutely it would drop. This draft class is weak for guards and next year is expected to be pretty strong. He gets drafted higher by going this year but Duke fans' arguments is that he can come back, he's on pace to graduate in 3 years with a Duke degree, and may want to play with that team they'll have next season and have a good chance at winning a title, and should those things happen he'll have a solid chance at having his jersey retired... according to them.

Not this Duke fan, Kid should go. Needs to strike while the iron is hot and get away from all the crap he's had come at him this year (and yes I know some of that crap is self inflicted).

I'll gladly take him back if he wants to stay but any fan that says he "should" stay is being selfish.

The kid just bought into his own hype machine he was being fed at Duke since the end of last year, His attitude and game reflect it!

Calipari took away Briscoe's mouth piece after like 3 games because he wouldn't keep it in his mouth. Can't imagine what he'd do about a punk ***** habitually tripping people.
Might send them on a trip called sit there till you grow up .I do agree with you that a little trash talk is good to get into the head of your opponent.

Again. He should do what is best for DUKE...does K cry when he asks him to return?
Honestly, I think he takes a huge step back next year (pun, kinda intended). He would start out a wooden candidate, but be off the radar by Christmas.

He's the sole reason that this stuff has come at him. Him and him alone. Nobody else to blame. This is typical. Poor Duke player getting attacked. Imagine if this had been a Memphis player doing this when Cal was there.
Such hypocrisy coming from Duke fans. And they wonder why people despise their team and their coach.

He can do what he wants obviously, but he's in the first round in every mock draft I've seen. If he comes back with what they have coming in, and with Jefferson coming back, he likely go from averaging 21 ppg, to maybe 15. And I think it's safe to say he will likely move to the second round, which has no guaranteed contracts.

I hate Duke, Hate Allen, think he's a punk for the tripping, but I do gotta say, in regard to him not embracing Brooks at end of game, Brooks came on with a weird, quick bro- hug, I woulda been "what up with that" and walked away too.

A Duke buddy of mine (I know, doesn't make sense to have a friend from Duke) says he is being told Allen will very likely return to Duke next season.

Hopefully they get some bones put in his neck before his head flies off. :popcorn: #whiplash

He's the type of guy that can stifle an offense. If he comes back, I don't think it will help their offensive flow with all the talent they have coming in, unless he changes his game.
