Message: [QUOTE="721Comstock, post: 2437500, member: 5429"] I will respectfully disagree with your disagreement. You make a LOT of assumptions as the basis for why you think he should have stayed. What we know as fact: He was already beaten out for backup minutes by another “only 4*” program kid, so his odds of being “entrenched as a starter as a Junior” were nearly zero, since the OConnell kid is already ahead of him, and isn’t going anywhere. No matter what rule changes may potentially occur in the future, Duke will ALWAYS GET many of the best recruits available - until K retires or dies. He has already been recruited over both this year, AND next. What we don’t know, but can assume: Maybe he’s just not that good? Mookie Jones was a highly rated recruit out of HS, and ended up not doing much of anything in college. Maybe Tucker is similar. [/QUOTE]
