Has any player's stock fallen more from the time they enrolled to the time they finished than Greg Paulus?

They need two things. They need a post presence. Doesn't have to be a great player but someone that can at least make the defense pretend to respect their inside game. Several times tonight, I saw them have all five guys at least 15 feet from the basket and four of them outside the three-point line. They also need a point guard that can take his man off the dribble and create. At this level, they have to work entirely too hard to get shots because all of the defenders are out there staying home on their men because they have nobody that commands even the occassional double team down low and nobody that can beat his man and make the defense scramble and get out of position.

I'm extremely disappointed because as much as I love Duke, even when they rose to #1, I knew this team was overrated and would have a hard time making it past the Sweet 16.
He should have played football. He was the NATIONAL Player of the Year...
