Keels

[sheyduke]

Baldwin is starting if he comes. No doubt. Still think he ends up with his dad though and I can’t blame him one bit for doing so.

Even coming off of injury? I would think the reason he comes is because the best medical staff and not having to produce right away while getting in game shape and being able to showcase his talent on national tv would be the reason but then again these are kids.

He wouldn’t be the first Kid who did that either with us.

Get Keels and everyone but Hurt to return and we're good to go.

First off, Keels' words not mine. Maybe he has inside info that Mark, Wendel, and DJ are returning, or, someone else is coming.
Personally, I think we need DJ and especially Roach to make significant strides on both sides of the ball for us not to waste a potentially dominating frontcourt. In the end, we will see.

 

[Laettner15]

He’s now announcing tomorrow!

 

[df64]

Let it be us, let it be so that he is a good defender, and how about no more defections.

 

[christophero]

This board has not had any good Duke news in months. We need something.

See your point but it’ll be almost a year since his injury when the season starts. Just seems to be a trend that when kids have the opportunity to play for their dad they usually do. Hope I’m wrong because he’s a hell of a player and seems like a good kid.

Jerry Meyer's crystal ball this morning for the good guys!

 

[christophero]

If Hurt returned DJ may have come off the bench this year. That is the only way this even makes a tiny bit of sense. But I'm not holding my breath. Or he thought Keels would start over him. But even then a transfer would make more sense. I do wish him well.

 

[YNWA196]

Got him!!! Now to go wrap up Baldwin hopefully!!

 

[Duke1783]

Happy to have him for a year

He looks less imposing w/o the hair..lol...#kidding #kidsaBEAST

 

[christophero]

I am unfamiliar with this whole good news about Duke basketball thing.

 

[Lavar5150]

Saw many of his games. Strong dude with unlimited range. Takes contact going to rack. He is should be ranked higher

Is he one and done in your opinion?

 

[timritterus]

I'm not worried about him being one and done. And I refuse to let DJ's ridiculous decision take anything away from this. Huge pick up! We have three MEN coming next year. These dudes will be ready to go.

 

[Lavar5150]

I would say no. Plays D but would have real tough time with NBA 2 guards. Would benefit from at least an extra year.

They are all men physically.

[sheyduke]

Looking like a good in coming class.

 

[Quavarius]

That’s why I don’t understand why fans are being apprehensive about this freshmen class. These are physically mature players compared to last year’s recruit. Keels is known as a defender. Our perimeter D will be elite with him, Moore and AJ Griffin.

 

[christophero]

I just watched a video of Keels. Wow. He looks like a pro and dunks with ease. Steward would look like a little kid next to him. I'm impressed. Trent like. I realize it might not happen but Keels could be an upgrade over Steward. He will be a better defender and make us more physical, if not quite be the scorer Steward was. One scouting video compared him to a smaller Paul Pierce. Not super athletic but physical.

Big welcome to our newest Dukie. OFC

I am as guilty as anybody else here, haha

If Mark comes back I will be eating some nanner puddin in Roy's honor!

 

[christophero]

Would Keels have come if DJ stayed? Did Keels scare off DJ? Is Hurt returning? Inquiring minds want to know. A good day after a bad week.

 

[jeffrey236]

I think our strategy should be to hire Baldwin’s dad to replace Nate....
