Again, the staff already knows Tyus Jones is gone. Enjoy these last 8 games.

Jones is projected as a late first rounder. He isn't leaving.

I think Grayson Allen has all the tools necessary to be an outstanding player going forward. My observation is that he needs to play within himself a little better. He seems to get out of control. He also needs to improve his decision making. he will do these things and I believe that he will be first team all ACC next year. He is a tremendous athlete.

Grayson Allen is going to be a player. The Pack recruited him hard for 3 years. He is a great shooter with good athleticism. Tyus Jones would be foolish to stay. He is a better Tyler Ennis.

I wish you were correct but you are not. Tyus Jones is gone, put it in the bank, the staff knows he is gone.

Chase Jeter will not start next year either. He will be one of the first 2-3 off the bench. That's all fact.

Now here's my opinion, Grayson Allen will be the leading scorer next season.

Jeter
Jefferson
Allen
m. Jones
t. Jones

Plumb Lee
Kennard

Will be our lineup right now next year..

Jones will be back, Winslow and okafor will go. Both are top 10 picks.. **** I'd argue Winslow is dukes best player. He's really good at everything and our only 1v1 lock down defender, so if you look at everything Winslow is our best all around player.

Cook is a Sr, he graduates.

About the freshman, the only one back is Allen. That's been known about a month now by the staff.

While recruiting Jones over the past 3 season the staff has told him they thought he probably would need 2 seasons of college ball before being NBA ready. Tyus never agreed or disagreed, he just listened.

The staff is prepared to run 6'5 freshman Luke Kennard at the PG for one season if Derryck Thornton Jr doesn't come to Duke next season.

I haven't asked about Brown because Duke has never been involved with him further than seeing him during the summer periods at the tournaments, I will see if I can find out today but I don't know since Duke is a non factor.

Plus who do you think gets brown? Keep in mind dook not on his list.

Ok, dook loses cook , okafor. What does your inside person say about dook loseing 2-4 players off this team? I think cook , okafor, jones are done. But could be okafor- Jones - and Winslow. I believe one of Jones or winslow jumps ship. What have you heard?

Dude, he's about to lose his job at Stanford!

I don't know who your "everybody's" are, but you've listed some things that some people know for dang sure.

Like Wiggins, don't you remember me telling you where he was going and that UNC had no chance in Hades?

This year, Jaylen Brown, UNC doesn't have a prayer, they know it. Still trying but that's their job.

There are people who know every little thing, just not many. I am fortunate when it comes to Duke basketball with the people I know.

And you are right, lets get back on topic, or has all 4 people on this forum already spoken their opinions?

I know people that work at unc , again means nothing when it's rumors. Everybody thought Harrison Barnes was a lock for dook, yet he chose unc.,I was hearing the coaching staff said they got him--- talking about wiggins- yet Kansas got him. Quinn cook and Jay Williams grew up unc fans but end up dook players.pinson growed up a dook fan ended up at unc. Rumors are That--sometimes there right, most of time there wrong. You asked question about who would be next coach at unc & dook. Roy turned unc down first time, then came. Johnny may do same or not at dook, if gets the offer can't say he takes it or not , but bet he takes it 9 out of 10 times

Didn't say Johnny was a rumor, said coach k staying 3 more seasons. Again no one knows when k or Roy retires. But k has had back problems also and had chest pains at times. Same as Roy has had problems, but no way I see Roy or k go past 4-5 seasons to be truthful. K not going to coach forever so better get use to it. It shocked unc fans & players when Dean called it quits. He was 66. Can't say when they retire but it's sooner than later. I bet you on that.

A dook fan who's friends with dook staff has said it. Again, not a fact just a rumor. Anyone can make a rumor, so you take it for what it's worth. Just a rumor. K-rat is almost 69 so retiring is sooner than later I'd say. Coached for close to 40 years all together. As Dean Smith once said, love the sport but takes it out of you hard to keep going after so long. Plus usa basketball , recruiting, traveling that means packing and unpacking.more games per season now, k and Roy's age they can't go on forever. I say 2-4 max for k-rat and 4-6max for Roy being he's 4 years younger than k-rat.


No its definitely fact, rumors is your speciality. You know I have a contact because you've read all the stuff I've put on here for years now. If you can't tell I have inside Duke stuff then you ain't paying attention. I did have a UNC insider but not anymore, but my Duke insider has always been able to accurately give me UNC stuff too, when I ask.

You want to know something about Duke? Ask. You want to know something about UNC? Ask and I might can find out. I can find out most anything you want to know about Duke though.

K just turned 68, not about to turn 69 and listen, age has just about exactly nothing to do with retirement, its health that means way much more. K is in far better shape than Roy. I'll bet you a hundred dollars to a bottle of beer that Roy retires first.

Absolutely not rumor about Johnny saying no to Duke many years ago now.

I still think Mark few & Billy donovan outside family for unc. Why do you say Johnny Dawkins is not choice? He did a good job at Stanford, plus he was k-rat right hand man for years. Hubert davis will not be head coach, never head coached team besides unc jv team. In family I say jarred hasse , think that was plan in being. Haase is a big time recruiter plus he's former player at Kansas for Roy and young coach. So he can relate to the players as far as how they feel in pressure in big games. But I like Mark few to, like to see how good he could do with, alot of mc d all Americans on Team

I've already told ya Duke's will not be Johnny Dawkins.

Fact, not rumor. It ain't him, don't know how else to say it.

Duke - Jeff Capel or Wojo
