The Official Duke/UNC 2017/18 Basketball Thread!!!

Oh. Well everyone else was discussing a Duke recruit. We get it. You hate Duke and Grayson Allen. Get in line, it stretches around the block.

Yeah, my bad. So overjoyed that duke is at home right now that i didnt follow the thread.

Well if you’re that overjoyed that Duke was at home tonight, it sounds like you need to get yourself a hobby. Maybe start working on model airplanes of an A-6 or F-4. The A-6 would probably be pretty time consuming.

Naw, im good
 
Nope from tennessee and like navy due to career in the Marine Corps. Why do you ask?

You are accusing people of being band wagoners, yet you neither attended UT or the Naval Academy. I mean I appreciate what you’ve done serving in the Marines, but it seems pretty hypocritical to me you calling everyone out in this thread.

Who did i call out?
 
Wendell Carter Jr seriously considering coming back. His mom wants him to stay, but his dad wants him to go. I think he’ll go, but I’m very surprised it’s even a discussion. If he came back that would be a huge hole that would be filled.

He needs to go. Top 10 pick, too much risk coming back.

Go get paid young man

Selfishly, I’d love for him to stay, but I don’t see this as anything more than building a little bit of suspense for him to actually announce he’s going pro, as he should.

I get everyone on your hated list other than Erik Meek and the Plumlees. Erik Meek almost never walked again before he got to Duke because he was hit by a car while jogging . He has a pretty good story.
