In case you had any delusions to the contrary, Duke is still Duke. They’re sending guys to the NBA left and right, but the talent keeps pouring in. Yesterday, 6’6″ Jamal Boykin announced his intention to matriculate at Duke. I couldn’t find an exact ranking for Boykin, but according to this article, he’s not top-20. From everything I’ve read though, he’s not too far from that. He’s just what you want, a guy who’s not quite NBA ready, but could be a college star. Add him to Duke’s two stud signees, and they once again have what is probably the top class in the country.
The one catch could be #1 rated recruit Josh McRoberts who may well decide go Livingston on Duke and take the money straight away.
