No.

Dukes incoming class will in my opinion make them harder to recruit against in the future. Just my two cents worth.

Oh yeah.

Actually this has already been happening and started with the Okafor/Winslow/Jones group.

Duke can pick out who they want at this point and you're probably just wasting your time getting involved with those players.

The good news is that there are more good players around in most every class than Duke can take. But Cal's mistake in this class is that they had so few offers out. This is another reason I suspect that for 2019 they put out a lot more offers and have been in on more players.

It's also a little easier for Duke with this particular class because they know they're going to lose their two big men, their point guard, their two guard, and maybe their other guard as well. A little different for Kentucky because it's hard to say about really any of our players. Duke's got some sure-fire pros over there and that makes the living room pitch that much easier.

Tyler Herro has been selected for the Nike Hoop Summit game.

Big-time honor.

Matt Jones said on his Periscope last night he can confirm UK will definitely be adding another player to this recruiting class. Not sure if that would be Wiseman, but I would think that's who it is. I guess it could be EJ Montgomery too...

He also said there was another piece of big news but it couldn't be announced for a few more weeks...not sure if that is UK bball or KSR related.

Matt Jones says EJ Montgomery's first visit will be Duke

[Matt Dillon]

National analyst, Andrew Slater, is predicting Montgomery to Duke.

Matt Jones has proven time and time again that he has very little, if any, inside info on recruiting.

I won't be surprised...probably one of the other guys that's part of RJ Barret's "group chat"-Lol You all read that article about why RJ was not surprised that Zion was coming to Duke...it was all part of the plan/team up...everybody was talkin about it in the group chat.

I'll be shocked if Montgomery is anything but the "brotherhood" of Duke commit. I'll honestly be shocked if he doesn't commit to them this weekend.

And if he does and Wiseman doesn't reclassify, then we better pray Cal hangs on to most of this squad.

Watched Langford drop 63 on my home town team last night. Granted the competition was not good but he is really smooth. Wherever he chooses to go is getting a good one.

Seems like the knock on him for a while now has been limited potential for continued development. I’ve read more than once that scouts and coaches think he may have already maxed out. Though if you’re only going to get him for a year, what would it matter?

[Joneslab]

The couple of times I've seen Langford he reminded me of Brandon Knight.
