He's basically marrying a rockstar who is going to continue seeing dozens of women in every city he goes to, treats them like garbage, then gets divorced in 2 years. But at least they get a good story out of it.
and some coin...
Screw Duke.
I view it as less "PC crappola" and more "grown men not being towards children." YMMV.
The difference is, we were on him, more or less, from the beginning (per the link, back in August 2016), whereas clearly he was a plan B (or C) for Duke after they lost Knox very late in the process (mid-May 2017). We might not have had the whole staff recruiting him (given our restrictions). But my information is that he told us he was genuinely interested in the 'Cuse last year, and we took him at his word and spent a great deal of precious resources on him last fall, all through the winter and right down to the end of the recruiting cycle (May of this year). He rewarded us by jumping on a last-minute hand-out from Duke. He did this, IMHO, not because K actually thought enough of him to spend 5 minutes recruiting him in the 9-12 months before that (he didn't) or because it was the best prospect for his development as a player (he was recruited over within weeks). The minute he saw some bling poof. Yes, it was his choice. Yes, that's recruiting (you get screwed sometimes; Green did the same thing). But I think it's fair to say we "brung him", and, without having all the inside information, the way it went down leaves me with some serious questions about his sincerity. He's a Dukie now. BOL. But Karma's a b.
But, but, the zone.
K' s job is to get the 13 best players.
