Me when Kon announces elsewhere tonight or tomorrow (but praying for a miracle of course)

Someone posted on dukes KK Thread 200 seconds ago, first post in 15 hours there. Can’t read it though bc not a subscriber……

Yeah I’m going to wait to get more information before I just take the word of the random Wisconsin poster on a random board.

He doesn’t have to guard starters … he does fine guarding back up 2’s and 3’s.

If it’s Duke I will officially/finally have given up hope on getting any kid that OV’s Duke unless they start losing and their NBA pipeline dries up in the next couple of years.

We’re not going to be in a better situation than this one.

Where I’ll be as well. I’ve been pretty positive we would eventually win out based on all the close relationships. As you said, if it ain’t Kon, we arent beating them for anyone ever

I’m stubborn, but this one is my point of no return. If it doesn’t happen here, it won’t happen unless they drop off from their current level.

If it’s duke, I’d like to think I could count on JPJ REALLY letting TJ and Kon have it when they visit over the next few years, but it’ll never happen. Bottom bowl blue hairs won’t even know we recruited them.

I hope repeated recruiting kicks in the nuts from the same asshole school doesn’t have the same effect on Tony as it does me.

It’s not even anger at this point. But I am a little less interested in college basketball than I was yesterday.

If we want anyone, ANYONE, and they offer, they’ll get em.

Kennard was a fantastic HS player and I believe ranked similarly to Kon. Kon would be the better shooter by far though.

Yeah my concern is that-

  1. Kon and players like him have an EQUALLY good relationship to all coaches similar to TB
  2. Kon and players like him can play in any type of system whether it’s fast or slower
  3. Kon and players like him get along with all of the players on any team as he would with UVa players

Then what is our differentiator moving forward?

We SHOULD have the better coaching- atleast the most experienced and highly regarded (Oats hasn’t won anything and Scheyer is still changing his diapers), yet it doesn’t seem to matter to these 5-stars…hopefully Kon sees through this.

I’ve been wondering the same thing - my guess is their pitch is some version of ā€œDuke is the best basketball program in the country, and we’ve put the most players in the NBA. You come here and you get to play with the best players and get the most exposure all of which helps your draft stock. We take care of you financially with our NIL package, etc.ā€

If this dude doesnt choose Virginia can admissions atleast send him an ā€œNot admittedā€ letter?
