February 19, 200917 yr Every year Duke and UNC seem to be a top 5 program. Thats directly related to recruiting. I wouldn't say Duke is a top 5 program. They haven't been a legit top 10 team IMO in 4 or 5 years. They still have good players and a lot are deserving of their credit. As for UNC there is no doubt they get the best recruits now consistently. I don't think anyone is arguing that.

Duke has been very good at points over the last 25 years......in this decade alone they have won a title, and been to another Final Four.....they are Top 5, don't let your hatred dissuade your opinion.
February 20, 200917 yr Duke has been very good at points over the last 25 years......in this decade alone they have won a title, and been to another Final Four.....they are Top 5, don't let your hatred dissuade your opinion. So 1 Title and 1 FF gets you a Top 5 for the Decade? Not Buying it.
February 20, 200917 yr So 1 Title and 1 FF gets you a Top 5 for the Decade? Not Buying it. How many others have a higher winning percentage, more 2 Final Fours or more, and 2 titles? It's a short list brother. Duke was also 37-2 and lost in the Championship in 1999.
February 20, 200917 yr What a joke that some of these kids made this squad when guys like Royce White and Daniel Orton did not. Maybe Orton's injury kept him from being eligible, not for sure. However, this gane is more political than anything, it is all about the school you choose and who you know!

February 20, 200917 yr Duke has been very good at points over the last 25 years......in this decade alone they have won a title, and been to another Final Four.....they are Top 5, don't let your hatred dissuade your opinion. I was meaning more on a year to year basis. Overall Duke is a top 5 program. But what I am saying is IMO Dukes not had a top 5 or 10 team since Luol Deng was there. They haven't made it beyond the Sweet 16 since then.
February 23, 200917 yr Speaking of Duke here is some of the guys that have been McDonald's All Americans going to the school: Eric Boateng Jon Scheyer (he is actually a good player, but IMO there is no way hes a McDonald's All American) Michael Thompson Casey Sanders Sean Dockery Shavlich Randolph Taymon Domzalski Joey Beard Ricky Price Crawford Palmer Lance Thomas Taylor King Chris Burgess

It says a lot about the selection process in regards to Duke.
February 24, 200917 yr That is an awfully disappointing list of Burger Boy's from Duke. Where did King transfer to? That can't be the complete list from Duke though?
