Grayson Allen commits to Duke. Should take you guys out of the running for Booker, right??

zagsblog.com/articles/kevon-looney-to-announce-oct-31/Kevon looney announcing on Halloween. The majority opinion is it's down to duke and Florida, with Tennessee coming on strong lately too. He is one if the top big men in this class. Hopefully he doesn't put a damper on my favorite Holliday.

Just saying what I'm hearing from the duke boards really is that duke has a slight lead and Florida and Tennessee are right behind. Recruiting is crazy though. These guys can change it up at any time. I don't have any comforting deep inside info like I got with Jabari Parker.

Hah. Parker was big for you guys this year. What's your starting lineup look like right now? I don't follow Duke in the offseason much other than top freshmen. And only because I follow all the top guys with calipari as coach

Athletic. We are gonna be running a lot unlike we have the last few years.
The only problem there appears to be with this team is at the 5 spot. We will probably be starting amile Jefferson who is like 6'9" and 215. He has a long wingspan and can guard the whole floor but is slim and may get pushed around. We also have josh Hairston who is a 6'7" senior. Can't stand him. Then there is the 3rd plumlee brother who is 7'0" but hasn't gotten back fully from a foot injury that made him redshirt 2 years ago. Hopefully he can contribute.
The other 4 spots we are loaded.
Projected starters. 1 Quinn cook 2 Rasheed suliamon 3 Rodney hood 4 Jabari Parker 5 amile Jefferson
Rodney hood is a transfer from Mississippi state. He was sec freshman of the yer but couldn't play last year because of the transfer rule. If you haven't heard of him you will soon. He was the best player on the team last year at practice but couldn't play.

Booker and Blackmon are both deciding on Thursday.
They're probably both going to Kentucky.

Kevin looney announces tomorrow at noon. Reid Travis about a week later.jalil Okafor, tyus jones, and justice Winslow will announce sometime in early November.
It's very possible duke gets 4 of the 5.
Not much insider info from my dad's source. He did say that none of the coaching staffs with regard to looney have any idea. None of them feel goo or bad about it. Very tightly on the wraps.
I personally think duke gets 4 of the 5. Either looney, or I looney goes elsewhere we get Travis, and then we get the other 3 too.
I hope I'm right.

Looney to Florida is what my dad is hearing now. Not surprising. He had mentioned wanting to be a 1 and done and idk If he would be assured enough playing time at duke as a freshman to put on a big enough of a showcase for the NBA.
