North Carolina and Ohio State’s remarkable basketball recruiting classes have gotten a lot of attention this year, and rightly so. But don’t sleep on Duke’s incoming talent. After McDonald’s All-American Lance Thomas picked the Devils last week, Duke now has a power class as well, with three top-twenty players plus #38, 7’2″ Brian Zoubek.
With Roy and K both having supremely talented teams in the coming years, there should be some hellacious battles.
In other recruiting news – this is a very interesting story. Evidently when Herb Sendek left NC State, top recruit Chris Wright withdrew his committment to the Pack. Now it sounds like Wright really likes Virginia and Dave Leitao. Wright is considered likely the top point guard in the class of 2007. Someone give Sidney Lowe Wright’s phone number!
