Saw this in 2 different threads on RR. It was a novel so I just copied the important points of the post.
“Here are some Facst for you:
2015 Duke #1 Class= Nat. Champs
Underachieving teams with #1 Class=
Duke #1 Class 2016=Lost in the Sweet 16
Duke #1 Class 2017=Lost South Carolina 2nd round
Duke #1 Class 2018 = ????
Dukes last 3 years with the #1 recruiting Class=National Champs, Lost in Sweet 16, Lost in 2nd round”
I believe his facts are wrong but the way he wrote it out I’m having trouble deciphering it to figure out exactly how his facts are wrong

All number 1 classes are not created the same. That 2016 team didn't underachieve at all.
It's not correct because we lost in the elite eight in 2018 a few months ago. Class of 14 won title in 15. Class of 18 will do ??? In 19.
No. Nor did we even come close to losing, let alone get blown out of the gym. Another Gary homer prediction that doesn’t have an ounce of validity.
A buddy of mine also told my wife that UNC is the only team that could handle Duke. She asked if he’d been snorting Oxy. Little can’t handle Zion. He’s too big and fast. Anything is possible but Zion is like a train coming at you.
Just looked at THR and could not believe the thread about them losing a recruit.There are numerous references about other schools cheating and paying recruits and they are crippled because they are pure and honest.Just unbelievable that they ignore twenty plus years of systemic academic fraud smh
You can’t believe it? That sounds like a you problem. Sounds pretty standard to me.
To me it isn’t really about Nas. He needs more minutes and needs to be given the freedom to make plays
From some medical brainiac named "al would" re: Zion vs Nas. Mind-blowing.
"I think Nassir will have a better pro career than Zion as measured by production, impact and longevity.. and I think Zions body will not serve him well as he ages. I believe his weight will be a problem and the things he is all pumped about playing these early season NCAA lower quality teams will not fly later this season in league play, much less in the league. Nas will only get better as his body fills out naturally and before this season is over I believe Nas will be a big minute player on this team and I wouldn't trade him for ZW as a Tar Hell for a minute. jmho"

That is all. No idea what this says, but this is impressive even for him. My mortgage is more to the point.
Lower quality teams? We’ve played 3 top 8 teams in our first 6 games.
Elon and Wofford is way tougher competition than Kentucky, Auburn, and Gonzaga on a neutral court
That’s what stuck out like a sore thumb to me too! Lol. Thinking your guy is better blah blah is fine but when he went there
.... typical
Other fans try to dig up anything to try to make themselves feel better about not being Duke!!!
Damn man, I feel horrible for that lil fella keysersosay#1 at the turd board. The Carey commitment has driven him to tears. And now, he's laying on his back stomping the floor over the espn earn everything series. Don't cry lil fella, it's gonna be okay.
Yeah, that keysersosay dude is a special guy. The world needs idiots, though.
I liked this gem....
"I did not realize that Dook has purchased the ESPN franchise.. I wonder what they paid them for the ENDLESS promotion and nonstop showing of the puff piece EARN EVERYTHING, which is on a continuous loop and will not end until well until Vader says so.
Do not worry because no matter what time of the day or night there will always be, on the front page of DookSPN, a glowing tribute to DOOK. Tonight it is still MORE Highlights of ZION and yes a troubling night .....He MISSED some DUNKS!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!
In over 40 years of watching ACC and college basketball this old coot just has to shake his head and marvel at the incredible recruiting advantage that DOOKSPN gives the dookies. But Vader being the phony and fraud he is, will whine and complain about something."
He's a good poster, IMO. Helps take some of the pressure off Gary and DSouthr.

That dude is at LEAST 3 sandwiches short of a picnic. Lol
What the argument fails to realize is that Duke doesn't just get positive publicity, it gets its fair share of negative as well. Every little thing Grayson Allen did was twisted and produced by ESPN to fit an attractive agenda. ESPN is nothing more than a business, it lost its integrity a long long time ago. Nothing they produce is genuine, it is all manufactured garbage.
Duke is the most polarizing college basketball program out there. It is the most attractive to ESPN because they can sell it, whether positive or negative. To think Coach K and Duke are running the controls over at ESPN in an attempt to gain recruiting leverage over the rest of college basketball is paranoia at its finest.
There is a very clear recruiting advantage with the exposure Duke gets, no one would argue otherwise. But the reason Duke is featured so much has nothing to do with control/fear or being in awe of Coach K, it is a business decision. But don't ever waste your time telling them otherwise, they are far too far gone for logic.

Actually Sky he has got ahold of a batch of banner puddin that had too much sugar in it
I have been banned by THR for 3 years and feel like I am missing all of the fun. How do I regain access? Start new account with Rivals?
Or if you have a friend named ponarkel you get to sneak in a glance or two. Danged I wonder if they will ban ponarkel for something I posted. Now that will be a 1st. OFC
Absolutely. This year the slurpfest of Zion by ESPN is at Tebow levels. Last year it was a complete hack job 24/7 of Grayson. The amount of love and air time we are getting this year is just going to ratchet up the hate level so that when something inevitably does go wrong this year it’ll be blown beyond out of proportion, you know kind of like the 2 point loss to Gonzaga.
Lots of thrturds come read this thread, here's a lol something from Marcus Paige to cheer you up.
Nelson has always been one of my favorites. And now he dunks on a top 50 NBA player.
UK fans are pissed off because Cal is being so super clean they aren’t recruiting like they did. Some woman on their compliance team makes sure he is clean. It’s a bit crazy.
LOL at the pussy cat fans who browse over at this board. Yeah your coach Pay Pal Cal is "real clean" considering he has had two Final Fours vacated and left those schools before he could get in trouble GTFO hahahahaha
There is a thread on how Des would recruit today.Imo he would use the same thing he did when he was coaching.Come to Unc and you won’t have to go to class and you still get a degree.After you get your fake degree we will set you up in one of my assistant’s drug houses

Is there another program in the country you would rather be a fan of? I must be missing something. Roy runs his program squeaky clean, no signs of cheating or anything close to it. Roy brings in men of high character and class. He’s also starting to graduate more player than ever before. And he’s also WINNING... maybe i’m in the minority, but what are we really actually complaining about here..
UNC still living in denial
