How do they go from being unranked to 14th again. Hopefully the Terps can hold on, this may be the worst Duke team I have seen in many, many years. That so called center they have is a joke.

Kentucky vs Duke in 2007 in the "Hey we use to be good" championship series.
Ahh every program goes through it, I remember a few years back UNC missed the toury all together couple years later thier the champs.
you have to think of how young duke's team is.I think that they only have one senior.

yeah. One senior who doesnt play and Demarcus Nelson is the other upper classman as a Jr.
True, they do only have 1 senior and he has played in like 13 games total.
They also have the #1 #7 and #10 players in the country commited right now for next year, and have another 5 star prospect in Patrick Patterson who has visited and been offered.
The recruiting class is looking good. The important thing is that they all stay and McRoberts and Zoubek are gonna have to learn to play some ball. The Backcourt is playing very good right now.
This is a down year for Duke and all of their fans. The only thing you can side with them on is their young. Duke only has one senior on the team which he doesn't play that much any how... Plus are recruiting class for next year looks great!
Duke won't get Patrick Patterson
And why is that?
This is what we have now, look how young...

Then we should have a pretty good class in 08 to...
why is it?
because he doesn't wanna go there??
And you know this how?
UK, WVU and UVa are the likely destinations for Patterson...UK most likely
look how young
1 Marcus Ginyard SO
2 Wayne Ellington FR
3 Reyshawn Terry SR
4 Bobby Frasor SO
5 Ty Lawson FR
11 Quentin Thomas JR
13 William Graves FR
14 Danny Green SO
15 Dewey Burke SR
21 Deon Thompson FR
22 Wes Miller SR
24 Surry Wood JR
25 Marc Campbell SO
32 Alex Stepheson FR
34 Brandan Wright FR
40 Mike Copeland SO
50 Tyler Hansbrough SO
so that is:
3 seniors- 2 play.
2 juniors- 1 plays 10 min. or less
6 sophomores- 4 play
6 freshmen- 5 play.
duke has:
1 seniors- plays some
1 juniors- plays a lot
5 sophomores- 4 plays a lot
6 freshmen- 3 plays a lot
i believe that these teams have about the same age
I actually think he'll go to WVU but thats just me. Mainly because Tubby may be out the door at UK, same reason I think Jai Lucas is headed to OSU.
In case you guys haven't noticed anybody thats really good only stays in college for one to two years. It's not like there are numerous big time teams that have 3-4 Seniors playing. Hansbrough is an old man anyway. [img]/LDPforum/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] He and Wright both might be out the door at the end of this season.
i dont see that...i dont think wright has developed like everyone thought. i see both back next year then they are gone.
well u do have old man strawberry on your team
Apparently Patterson hates Dukes gym (this was in an article on thesabre.com but is not there anymore).
Apparently the new hot rumor for him is Florida. At first he didn't want to go too far away from home, but Florida's making a late hard push for him.
This son of Huntington (born in Huntington Cabell Hospital) would love to see him on the Grounds.
He's not a great talent like Wright is plus he blew out his knee causing him to get a year behind.
