December 21, 201213 yr Jabari's younger bro asked him a few months ago who the one coach in the world he wanted to play for. First answer was Wooden. Brother said to limit it to living coaches. Coach K was his answer. Says he didn't decide until about midnight before the announcement.
December 21, 201213 yr I'm eagerly waiting on the article criticizing Duke and Coach K for recruiting these 1-and-done kids to come out.... I'm sure there are some out there. Tons of Duke fans hate 1-and-done kids playing at Duke. I'm sure there is an article somewhere criticizing it. I like that they come to Duke. Takes a lot of guts to go play at Duke for just one year.
December 21, 201213 yr I'd say academics are more difficult ^ For a freshman spending a few months on campus? Nah...

December 22, 201213 yr I think this is where me and you disagree though. I hate the one and done. I hate the 1-and-done rule overall also but I don't mind them playing at Duke. It is what it is.
December 22, 201213 yr Uh, why? Why go to a school wih stringent academics when you don't have to? I wouldn't go to Duke for 1 year. I'd go to UK.
December 22, 201213 yr For a freshman spending a few months on campus? Nah... Deng, Irving and Rivers all finished their first year of college.
December 22, 201213 yr Deng, Irving and Rivers all finished their first year of college. Which equates to a few months on campus. They aren't taking 400 level physics as a freshman...
December 22, 201213 yr Which equates to a few months on campus. They aren't taking 400 level physics as a freshman... Few. Several. Semantics. Call it 8 months. They aren't taking Maurice Clarett classes at Duke either. I'm willing to bet ENG 101 is harder at Duke than at most schools.
December 22, 201213 yr Why go to a school wih stringent academics when you don't have to? I wouldn't go to Duke for 1 year. I'd go to UK. All you have to do is pass 6 hours in the first semester to be eligible. They don't even have to go to class the second semester if they're going to be one and done.
