The story I heard talks about a grudge between Billy and Coach Wooten going back to his time at DeMatha.  In 2001, Cameron Indoor was hosting the McD game, but Duke had no high profile recruits in the game.  They ended up selecting Duke's lone decent recruit, PG Daniel Ewing, to play.  Ewing couldn't hold a candle to Edelin, who was the PG for the mythical national champion, Oak Hill, that season.

I'm not saying that there is an SU conspiracy with the game.  There isn't.  What I am saying is that the selection process is flawed and has resulted in many average guys with more hype making the game over the years all because of where they signed and the ratings the game could draw because of it.  And some kids appear to have been black balled, which was the case with Paul Harris.  I still don't think anyone has ever figured out that one.  Some said it was his grades.  Others said that he didn't qualify because he didn't actually graduate from HS in four years.  Whatever it was, the kid got hosed.
