For some reason, this team reminds me of the 1998 team that lost to UK in the Elite 8 and ended the season 32-4. The previous season (1997) we lost in the Round of 32 and went 24-9. The following season, we brought in the No. 1 ranked class with a talented freshman PG/C/F (Avery, Brand, Battier) and teamed with a Sr. PG in Wojo and Jr. Langdon. Last season, we lost in the Round of 64 and ended the season 26-9. We bring in the No. 1 ranked class with a talented freshman PG/C/F (Jones, Okafor, Winslow) and teamed with a Sr. PG Cook and Jr. Sulaimon.
(Note: I'm not saying each player is similar in terms of production/anticipated production; just noting the similarities in the makeup of the prior season and the following season regarding both seasons).
If you disagree, what previous Duke team does this team remind you of if not the 1998 team?
