I read the article on espn regarding Curry, and it says he will sit out 09-10 season. Will he even practice with the team?

There is 0 reason for Duke to take this kid. They don't need another sg. They need big men.

Seth Curry, I don't think he is good enough to play for the Dukies, he played at Liberty for crying out loud and he was a sort of above average player there, so Dukies just made a bad move concerning their program by allowing him to join, hope they are happy, and Duke will continue to be choke artists in the Tourney.

I know you don't follow Duke recruiting, but if you take a look at what is in store, you'll see that the addition of Curry is going to leave Duke 5 deep at 1-2 spot for '10. Thats normal.

Even if Duke manages to pull Wall for this class, he's a one and done and will be gone by the time Seth can play. There is a scholarship out for Brandon Knight, but him leaving Florida is not going to happen.

Meanwhile the 3-5 position will be very deep. Especially if Barnes jumps aboard.

So yes, no true "banger", but still post players.

So Curry, who will have the opportunity to get a year under his belt within the Duke system, and add some weight to his frame, is giving Duke plenty of reasons to take him.

he averaged 20 a game at Liberty and was constantly doubled teamed nearly the entire season. he has the talent to play at Duke.

Against UVA and Clemson he averaged 25 points (10-17 from deep).

And now he'll be at a bigger school where the defense won't be able to just key on him. I think he'll do alright.

So what are the chances that John Wall actually signs with Duke?

I'd say...3%? I know his visit went well, and that his momma wants him near home. Still looks pretty bleak, IMO.

I think he is wanting to announce at the Jordan Brand Classic. So, I'll cross my fingers, but I doubt anything happens.

they've already got two guys in the year's recruiting class that are PF's. one is 6'9 and the other is 6'10

Duke fans talk about Plumlee and Kelly like they're the answer to Duke's inside game(or lack thereof) but both guys are 6'9" to 6'10" and 205lbs and according to Rivals they are "athletic forwards with dangerous face up and shooting games"...

How is this any differant from Kyle Singler?

Two more skinny forwards who like to play on the perimeter more than in the post doesn't sound like the answer to me

They're bigger than Singler, period.

But it doesn't sound like they play a true inside game...so how are they the answer to Duke's problem in that area....

From what I've read it sounds like they are just better versions of Singler which won't help Duke against teams with good big men

all they have to do is defend the paint a little bit and rebound.

No one said they were the answer, people are just saying they are what Duke has to work with. Oh, and Kelly is skinny, but Mason has packed on atleast 20 pounds.

I'd love to see another Brand or Boozer.
