Don't bother. He will transfer again before you get there.

I'm not saying he will be any good or not, but Walter Clayton started his career at Iona. And he only averaged 7 points a game his freshman season.
Any clue as to why he transferred? Closer to home? No. More PT? Doubtful. Wants to watch a post-season game in person? Maybe.

He looks decent. Big body, a bit raw. Blocked a shot and then scored against Texas, so could play in small spurts. Not much to lose really. Heard he has 2 years left. Upgrade from Borden. Ceiling could be Reeves. Good student. Seems like these types never play much but you never know.

As a native New Yawker auwl I gotta say is Go Knicks!!! Up 2-0. Bite it Celtics.
Inexplicable collapses by the Celtics.
Sorry Chris, Go Celtics and Tatum for me

Absolutely! Life is too short to be spelling all these names! Slim, Rese, Coop, Kon,Sion...we were spoiled this year!
Multiple teams like Coward at the back half of the first round reportedly, so he better really love Duke.
And hopefully we were able to offer him close to late first round money.
Will the top college programs ever get to a point where they can outbid the NBA for not only first round picks but even top 5 picks? It may not matter since the college money comes with the stipulation that you have some sort of academic course load and most people don't want to deal with that.
Hearing, scouts stating the believe Coward to the NBA. Maryland in the mix for Wilkins.
Did some research on ESPN, Sports Illustrated, and CBS Sports on The Blue Devils. This is what I’ve discovered on those 3 sites collectively
Flagg: Consensus #1 pick. Jazz the favorite to land him. If this happens he and Filipowski will team up.
Knueppel: Projected to go to the Spurs or Rockets. 8-9 pick in the lottery.
Maluach: Projected to join Brandon Ingram and RJ Barrett thus forming The Toronto Blue Raptors. Top 10 Pick.
Evans: Sports Illustrated had him being taken early in the 2nd Round. 33rd Overall Pick to the Charlotte Hornets.
Coward: No where to be found in any of ESPN’s, Sports Illustrated, nor CBS Sports latest mock drafts.
Evans and Coward are going to have to really impress during the draft combine to slide into the 1st Round.
Good Luck to these 5 along with Proctor and James.

If we lose Coward and Evans, Chris, you'll be right. The team would have zero shot at hanging 6.
We have a shot, I just don't think this is a 1 seed on paper. A lot of lottery talent out the door. But you never know. I think we get one of Evans or Coward, likely Evans. If Coward came back I would be more optimistic, but still think we take a step back from last year. If Proctor had come back I would say we could hang a banner. This past team was our best team in at least a decade. But it doesn't matter what I say. Even off years at Duke can still be very good. A lot went right this past year.

We’ll be fine. Duke has proven time and time again they can win playing just 7 or 8 players.
We may not be 35-4 fine but we’ll win a lot of games.

Yeah losing Coward and Slim is devastating. Still don’t think it happens but it would really limit our ceiling dramatically.
Today's kids, with very few exceptions, would rather play in the NBA all things being equal. It's where the best are; it's the majors. At the McDonald's game the players likely talk about the NBA, not the final four. Florida just got a first rounder back; but it was big news.
