Nail meet coffin. That's a wrap.

 

[Cusesky8214]

Nice not even knowing you juiceman.

 

[normaliswear]

Well that sucks... Mr Wilson you there?

 

[cuseinseattle]

Even if he wasn't going to Duke he was going to do a visit before committing somewhere else. I think we still have a chance for some reason. If you forced me to bet money I would go with Duke though.

 

[Ryand877]

That didn't take long.

 

[Fly Rodder]

I'm of two minds here: SU desperately needs his type of talent on the 2017 team; but at the same time there was a very good reason(s) that SU stopped recruiting him for six months and he's one of the last 2017 recruits to make a commitment. :noidea:

Because you are aware of his track record on visits. Our chances may have just gone up a touch.

I hate to use a UNC fan's tweet but this is good. Whatever... Next.

That might be our only hope but I wish the visit was on a weekend so there would be more temptations on the wild and crazy Durham campus.

Good point. Maybe we could send Cusetroop down there to pose as a Dukie.

Yeah, I doubt K could overlook a trip to the hospital/ Durham Police Station.

Seriously though...this is not good, if predictable.

He has a lot of things to think about over the next few days. There are worse things in life than losing out on a recruit. That being said, I hope we get him and then he fulfills our expectations.

Mid week trips. Does Tucker go to class?

 

[Alsacs]

Well time to close shop on this thread.
Good luck to Tucker it's his decision and it's not Syracuse.

 

[Grbac]

This is like you are about to get married but some super model dream girl asked you out on a date right before you tied the knot.
More than likely you go on that date. Because it is your dream girl.

But at the end of the day you will marry who is near and dear to your heart. Your true love. Not because of looks or superficial reasons.

I guess we cannot fault the kid for making sure he is making the right choice.

I am just getting tired of standing at the god forsaken altar!

Mid week trips. Does Tucker go to class?

My sons last day of School is May 24th here in Georgia. Him being a senior I'm sure he's pretty much done with School.

 

[SyracuseTD]

Can't wait to beat Duke next year as Tucker watches from the bench

I live in raleigh. Was at Duke two weeks ago for the lax game. Cameron indoor is a joke. I walked around that campus and I could just feel the flops. Practically fell over walking past the bball high school gym (Cameron), while flailing my arms around. Weird. Must have been the wind.

A great time. Last month of school and the summer before college was some of my favorite times. Much illicit activity..

Just put full court press on Sid and the Euro guy. Then bring in the 5th year combo guard. And lets go.

Maybe the Duke lax team will be his official hosts.

Duke campus is Gothic, old school, Northeastern Ivy style.

Cameron is a dump though. It's historic but it's like Fenway Park it's a dump.
