For all u retards out there, there is no way they are on the way down. They are getting two top 10 recruits, maybe 3, and the 13th ranked recruit. Plus, scheyer reminds me of a less talented JJ Redick. Dont get me wrong, he aint a Redick, but he can be a good player. Also, Paulus is stepping up as player. Once McRoberts gets out of his mental slump, then he will beco,e special. One last thing, did anyone see Henderson vs UNC. Anyone who thinks Duke is on the way down is absolutley insane.

i agree. remember, duke is young. when most of the team are seniors, they'll have a great run

Ya seriously, Paulus, Scheyer, McRoberts, McClure, Nelson, Henderson, Zoubek....THEY ARE ALL COMING BACK!!!!
Duke has 1 senior....1! Next year the only seniors will be Nelson and McClure. In 2 years, maybe next year if Scheyer and Paulus produce better as guards, they will be ACC Champs and at least a #2 seed in the tournament. Going 8-8 in the ACC with 1 senior, who doesn't even start, is pretty darn good no matter what anyone says cause that may be the toughest conference.
The nation doesn't know what's coming from Durham, NC...

There is no way that Duke is going down. They may be less than their usual standards, bu they are still a special team. Duke basketball still has that aura about them that draws smart, talented basketball players. With Paulus and McRoberts becoming better team leaders next year, and Coach K still patroling the sidelines, I'd put my money on Duke almost any day (except maybe when their playing UNC).

They tried to have Senior Night last week. They put their one senior into the ball game and he totaled a whole minute of play.
They have played up to their potential this year. If they can get a couple of tourney wins, I'll say its been a productive year.

It's not over, but they need to get more athletic in a hurry. Your boy Paulus can't defend anyone.

no. it's a rebuilding year for them. just like you said they're getting a great recruiting class and they only have one senior leaving this year and he doesn't have any stats whatsoever. I project Duke to go to the final four next year.

Paulus is the biggest joke in college basketball.
