Now I’m going to ask. Where are the guys that were saying Keels would be back ?
Next years minutes
- Thread starter acc hoops
- Start date
I’m going to bite the bullet and say he goes late first to early second round. He will make a team but I never thought Keels would return .
Right here Shey. It was pretty well known that he would stay and I’m not sure what changed.
He was gone after the Kentucky game
Guess I can stop making my minutes predictions with Moore and Keels in the line up. You know who is left from last year's recruiting class? Blakes. And Roach from the year before. 2 out of 10 guys.

What's the average NBA career for players that leave after their first year? Not just Duke...anyone know? What's the same stat for Sophomore, Junior, and senior entrants? The lure to leave early is strong, I just wonder if players would be better staying in college, improving their strength and skills and maybe that leads to a longer pro career. Might be no correlation but it certainly seems that there are quite a few that jump and never really make a career past a few seasons in the G/NBA or then abroad. And by career, I would consider it 5+ years...and even that's a low bar.
Not only will they beat out arses twice but UVA will sweep is. We in trouble
We can still do well in the portal, and I think we have to to have the kind of season we are used to. Last year's team was young but we had Roach, Moore, Baker and Williams. And Theo and bates.
Your good Timo. It sucks but they are kids . If I had to bet he probably saw how some of the earl second round picks are still getting paid and on a roster but they are kids .
Y’all think this sucks, wait till Love announces he’s returning
Exactly. One in particular that was VERY confident he was back. The good news is there are over 1,000 transfers in the portal so I think we are fine.
Who cares . I’ll go down Franklin street wearing all Duke gear !
1,400 to be exact lol. Or atleast last I checked . The kid from Kansas St went to Miami . Pack I think was his name .
We are one year removed from 15-13. Not saying that will happen but it's not impossible either. With some transfers we should make the tournament but I can't see us being as good as this year unless Jon REALLY hits a home run in the portal.
Thank you, I know people point to our #1 class but this is a down year.
4 of the top 20 coming in. 3 of top 5, the sky is not falling.
It’s not happening . Worst case . Whitehead moves to sg. Which my opinion he’ll kill it at that position Baker goes to SF and Mitchell to pf with Lively at the five. Throw in Flip, Blake’s and Schutt off the bench . Duke does need two transfers but I’m not worried as some of you .
that 15-13 team lacked a lot and I mean a lot! Williams hadn’t found his nitch, johnson quit on the team . Hurt couldn’t guard a fly on the wall and Steward was off and on not to mention no rotation could ever seem to fit . Brakesfield played like a freshman and got lost after Johnson left the only one Coleman never got much burn .

Why do we keep talking about Baker. He hasn't made any impact in 3/4 years so far and get destroyed Everytime he's on the court. Why do you think he's going to suddenly be good enough to impact as a starter? I hope I'm wrong but I just don't see it
You're good. You never guaranteed it. People are just venting right now. Have we ever lost 5 NBA draft picks? Maybe 5 first round picks. That is a lot of talent.
Why though? I don't get it. Some point out a weaker class, but 4 of the top 20 kids and we will grab Portal transfers.
