This class is much better than last years. Ingram and Simmons are great, but Josh Jackson, Tatum and Giles will be better. The top 25 guys are waaaay better on average. Diamond Stone has nothing on these bigs, for example.

Agreed. As underwhelmed as I was (and posted about) after watching the 2015 McD AA game, I was inversely impressed by the 2016 McD AA group. The talent level in this class is so much greater and the kids are noticeably more well put-together across the board. Bolden, for instance, looked far ahead of any big I saw in last year's class, including Stone, Zimmerman, Jeter, Swanigan, etc. Reminds me a lot of the 2014 class.

Really excited to see that USA BB wanted Harry Giles to attend (even though he can't play), mainly because of his attitude! Says a lot about him as a person and I am really looking forward to seeing him in Duke Blue next season.
Giles says that he just wants to be 110% ready "cause we've got business to handle next season"! I came to Duke to win a National Championship and we can get it done. We just have to be hungrier than everyone else; I know I will be!!
Guys, if that doesn't wet your whistle for BB season to get here, my sympathies!!! I'm like, real excited - - - - It's gonna be OK.
Go Duke!!

I like that Giles, Tatum, and Jackson are all there in Bolden's ear.

I'd love to see Bolden, Jackson, and Tatum on the floor at the same time.

Can we call dibs on Jackson's brothers? That seems to work out for us.
