Kyrie Irving To Duke.

Good news for UT. We'll see if that slows UK's recruiting juggernaut a little bit.

Yea I'd say so.. there are only a few more John Wall types out there in '10 and '11 that can keep that train moving.. Gilchrist, Teague, Irving, and Barnes and they all seem to be headed elsewhere.. One down 3 to go I guess

I think Irving was a Duke lean this whole time. Kentucky will still get either Brandon Knight or Selby.....sucks, but just the way it is.

I could live with that. Knight and Selby aren't anywhere near Gilchrest and Irving

1. Brandon Knight is better than Irving.
2. Kentucky is still the team to beat for Gilchrist.

Yes and yes. As long as Nova doesn't offer the family a mansion and cash, Gilchrist is probably coming.

Irving was Duke bound months ago. He just wanted a free visit and another good party before comitting. No suprise.

Villanova is one of the last schools you'd have to worry about doing something like that.

Yeah. Especially since we have probably already offered the mansion, keenland, and a leer jet.


Not to mention, #15 Terrence Jones is climbing up our ladder too.

Kyrie Irving (kyrieirving) on Twitter
Yeah. The information was leaked by an assistant I think. ESPNU wants to have the presser, but their stipulation is that you cannot have broken the story yet to ANY other news organization. Hence the reason he was denying it on twitter.

funny stuff.
