40-year Duke fan and 54-year Stat Guru. I will deep-dive the shiznit out of some numbers. Also love stones, shells, scenic photography and am a 2-time NDEr.
@TrevorMarbry@CWSZNNN@itsAntWright ...and is, bar none, the greatest recruiter in the country. The fact that he WILL win his first championship in less time than almost any first-time head coach is a foregone conclusion at this point, as he's been right there at the door 3 years running. So your argument is moot.
@TrevorMarbry@CWSZNNN@itsAntWright Meanwhile, Jon Scheyer continues to bring in top talent, including the deepest team of quality players in the country--11 of them--and has been to 2 Elite 8s and a Final 4 in the past 3 years. He's also won back-to-back ACC Tournaments, went 36-2 in ACC play the past 2 years...
@TrevorMarbry@CWSZNNN@itsAntWright ...preseason Top 25 lists. Other teams, like Michigan, Illinois, UConn and others, are bringing back multiple players, as well as getting multiple transfers and freshmen. So the keys now for top teams are BALANCE, EXPERIENCE and DEPTH...not top recruiting classes.
@TrevorMarbry@CWSZNNN@itsAntWright ...2 international players (Dame Sarr, Joaquim Boumtje Boumtje). The other thing that is making a comeback is DEPTH--Florida retained 10 of their top 15 players. Duke has 4 of their top 6, 2 top transfers, and a 5-man top recruiting class. And those 2 teams are #1-2 on most...
@Gary_murphy58@itsAntWright They SHOULD be in the same sentence because college basketball before the 64-team era and after it are 2 completely different animals...and winning 5 championships with ONE coach is more impressive than winning 6 with 3 different ones...like Carolina and UConn both.
@BigBlueStein@itsAntWright Typical Kentucky and Carolina fanbase dude--don't counter the info, just name-call and stick your tongue out like a 5-year-old. You all are SO predictable...
