Class of 2018 - General Discussion

[Joneslab]

If Kansas got in and actually swayed him then it might say something about UK's relationship with R.J. Barrett.

I'm hesitant to read too much into guys changing crystal ball picks though. They'll change those picks a bunch of times until a recruit commits.

Bagley reclassification is still up in the air. He is still taking classes required in order to reclassify. The key, and reason I think he ends up at UCLA, is Duke and USC start classes at the end of this month, UCLA starts classes at the end of September...

[Joneslab]

Bagley will decide tonight.

One of the weirder recruitments I've ever seen in that there has been almost nothing about it from the online experts. All signs point to Duke but USC and possibly UCLA are still in the mix.

Being so late, on 11pm Sportscenter, is interesting...tells me USC or UCLA

Only Duke could get Duval and Bagley, two very questionable recruits academically, (and Bagley having been at 3 different high schools in 3 yrs).....cleared and eligible to play.....SMH

Just heard the guys at BSnB discussing this thread and mentioned lilproUK98 and Will in their discussion.

Did he visit USC? The way it went down, where there were reports of Duke sending their staff to recruit him, and then the reclassification, and then the visit to Duke...all of that suggests it's probably the Dukies. Really hope I'm wrong.

If they're all cleared and eligible Duke will be the easy #1. Of course they should have been last year too. Their only weakness will be inside.

Good to know. I really (really) hope Andy Enfield can pull it off.

If we can't get him then I'd rather USC get him no Dukies!
I'll be watching ESPN tonight...I wanted him so bad! I envisioned us having MB III and RJ (I knew RJ was reclassifying 2018) in 2018 legit shot-championship!

[justford]

Bagley to Duke. Now lets see if he is academically eligible.

[KCKUKFan]

Bagley to Duke. Now lets see if he is academically eligible.

He committed to Duke. Of course he will be academically eligible.

[UK8STL11]

Unreal that he is going to Duke. Absolutely sucks. They are the clear favorites now and are loaded. Dang

[Joneslab]

The Carter/Bagley duo is going to be hard to handle.

[lilproUK98]

8 different high schools between Bagley and Duval.........and one Bagley attended has failed to meet NCAA requirements before. Unreal.

But, he is still not cleared, so we can hold out hope this farce is not allowed to become reality.

I'm not conceding anything to dUKe...and no one else should either.

Their starting line-up consists of 4 freshmen and a headcase....

I'm in mourning today... but I like the kid I've been following him too long to flip so I'll root for him on a personal level but not at the expense of our CATS.

MB III attended Prep school freshmen year and I heard his dad had a fall-out with the coach and admin because things allegedly were not on the up-and-up accreditation wise. He spent 2 yrs at Sierra Canyon (Catholic Colleg Prep school. Fun fact: the "Kardashians" HS-lol) but had to sit out b-ball Soph yr when he transferred from AZ to CA;CIF viewed it athletically driven transfer.

I'm with you all: Will the NCAA clear MB III even if he might be a little tripped up from the Prep stop? Yes! because they LUV Coach K- Lol I think Coach K is really starting to embrace/adapt to these "one-and-dones" now He's had n-o-o-o problems with it the past 5 years No blue blood program better NOT say anything about our coach.
Duke could have 4 of the Top 10 players on their team this season...gonna be interesting.
