I think it's possible that Duke backing off Green late this summer may have had something to do with JB's & Coach K's close relationship.  Who knows the conversations that possibly took place among them during the Olympics, etc.  With SU's long courtship of Green, and what it presumably meant to SU's immediate future (at least at the time) combined with Duke's relatively short duration of interest.  Additionally, with Duke's ability to recruit at a considerably higher level than SU, K didn't want to go head to head with JB on this.  Just a thought...Francis did note in his pod cast that he had no idea or wasn't clear as to why Duke may have backed off.

Clearly QG was stringing SU along with his beauty queen attention seeking antics.  When the presumed [I]'sexiest man alive' [/I]came along and pledged his alleged devotion...he gone!  In the end, choosing UK was practically foreseeable considering all the trips and visits Green made to the Hill, etc., but never making that public commitment.  For the most part, and in hindsight, the writing was on the wall the entire time.
