Agreed, hard to fault the kid thereEverything looked like Duke until Auburn offered a huge bag to both Flory and his family. Dude chose to take the money and help his family, I can’t blame him for that. Now we just transition to Patrick
Tipoff to me was announcement to be made at UnderArmour event.Auburn the UA sponsored team vying for Flory's services.$$. Began doubting our chances ever since.In retrospect, retweet by Auburn coach was a big clue. Committing without a campus visit is bizarre.
He's a real prince of a guy isn't he jeffrey??Nice of Pearl to steal his thunder by giving all the winks and nods.
Correct. And it’s hard to blame him with his family situation, but he is going where the money is most at this time. I believe whole heartedly he wants to go to Duke. But, it is what it is. We move on. Flagg isn’t a bad consolation prize.Go to Auburn and get paid now, likely not develop into a successful nba careeer.
Or
Go to Duke, develop your game and make it in the League, making more in long run.
He’s taking the less risk, less reward route.
Any chase we get fooled on Flagg?Correct. And it’s hard to blame him with his family situation, but he is going where the money is most at this time. I believe whole heartedly he wants to go to Duke. But, it is what it is. We move on. Flagg isn’t a bad consolation prize.
I didn't go through the entire thread to find out, but what is this "family situation" of which you speak. If it is truly dire, then I certainly can't fault the young man for helping out.Correct.

There’s always a “chance” but I’d be stunnnnneddd.Any chase we get fooled on Flagg?
If situation is dire, he should reclassify and get NIL $ sooner.Correct. And it’s hard to blame him with his family situation, but he is going where the money is most at this time.

His family lives in Africa, believe the Congo, very poor.I didn't go through the entire thread to find out, but what is this "family situation" of which you speak. If it is truly dire, then I certainly can't fault the young man for helping out.

Don't count your chickens son, watch out for u- conn they are the champs right now.Missing out on some recent guys because of $ is something to keep an eye on. We are recruiting at a high level and probably still get Flagg, but the world is changing. I love Duke too but if someone offered a bag of cash to go to Texas (legally) that would be hard to turn down.
Well good luck to you and the Huskies, or troll heels.Don't count your chickens son, watch out for u- conn they are the champs right now.
Just read a book entitled "Cobalt Red" about cobalt mining in Congo. Read it if you haven't already. If anyone deserves money, it's the Congolese. I'm just not at all sure if the money will actually make it to the family instead of to the corrupt government's pockets. I hope they have a plan for that.His family lives in Africa, believe the Congo, very poor.

Wow. Went from a Duke lock to an Auburn lock to committing to Kansas within 24-36 hours.Score another victory for the crystal ball slappys.
I’m thinking Flagg, VJ, and Patrick Ngongba II would be a good way to close out this class. With Kansas getting Flory, should eliminate them from his top group which was a final eight of Kansas State, Kansas, Duke, Michigan, Kentucky, Indiana, and UConn. Without a Center in our 2024 class and past recruits that have come out of Paul VI HS, we should be able to land this kid.Let's lock up Flagg and VJ....
Unless he takes a Covid year?I'm pissed he went to Kansas, but I get it. Hunter will be gone next year!
My bet is this kid ends up being a 4 if that happens.Unless he takes a Covid year?
He’s listed at 6-8, so he’s probably 6-6.My bet is this kid ends up being a 4 if that happens.
