Duke has lost Freshman Okafor, Winslow, and now Jones along with Senior Cook from their 8 man

[two3zone]

Plumlee is also gone to the military I believe. So they have Jefferson, MJones and Allen returning on ship plus Obi will be eligible. Jeter and Kennard are committed. I expect they will pick up Ennis as well.

Sooo>
PG: Ennis
2G: Allen
SF: Jones
PF: Jefferson
C: Jeter
Bench: Obi and Kennard.
I think they will get in the mix and bring in at least 1 more recruit possibly 2 for next year.

N.C. State junior Trevor Lacy confirms to ESPN that he is leaving for NBA. Tough blow for the Pack.

NC State just lost its leading scorer. Huge blow to them now.

Might be easier if teams just started listing who's staying.

Jefferson is pretty good. He's a lot like Grant.

Very good!

Wonder if they try to get Jamal Murray to re-classify?

Thornton

So many guys a year from now will be in places like Fresno and Tulsa hoping for a 10 day contract.

 

[Madbiker]

30 1st round slots with guaranteed money. 58 early entry kids and counting. Some are going to be very disappointed.

After his Nike World Game performance Murray will have his choice of several elite programs. You have to think he will do a lot better than NC St.

 

[pearl31]

Yes he is. He's been projected as a late 1st, early 2nd rounder. The speculation is that Shayok, a frosh this year, would be the leading candidate to replace him as the starter with Nolte, who's a great defender and seems to come up with dagger 3 pt-ers, coming in for him.

keep telling yourself that

"ACC-NBA Early Entry Team":
PG-T Jones, Hanlan
WG-Anderson, Lacey, Rozier
WF-Winslow, A Thomas, Tokoto
BF-Harrell, McCullough
C-Okafor Wow.

That is a crazy talent drain from just one league.

The more ACC talent that leaves, the better I feel about our situation. A lot of teams will have it much worse than 4 returning starters and the #4 class.

UNC and UVa are the 2 teams better than SU "on paper" as things stand right now, but everyone (including UNC and UVa) has huge holes to fill.

I don't think uva is better than us "on paper" now with Anderson and Atkins gone - they'll still be outstanding defensively, but just not very good offensively... unc will be very good... Pitino will manage to get l'vlle competitive, so will K with Duke... ND will still be good but not nearly as good w/o Grant and Conaughton...
I think we'll be right there amongst the top 4
