haha yeah that is crazy, Tory is the second youngest of 14 children, and has niner older brothers. I have one older brother that has made me tougher, so what do you think 9 would do to you? He will be a stud PG in the Big East in the years to come along with that freshman PG on Villanova by the name of Reynolds I think.

Ima tellin you guys to watch this kid. He does not give up his dribble a la Nash. His head is always up and he scoots thru huge crowds with ease. I wish the Spurs had this kid right now. Perfect point guard type, my type anyway. Bullish and low to the ground... see the entire floor, basically use both hands equally well (again a la Nash) and not so incredibly athletic that they rely only on their athleticism and dont use their smarts (Tony Parker would be my example... and this might be the reason a guy like Dwayne Wade may not be a long time guard like Stockton). After the athleticism diminishes, what do you have left? DJ AUGUSTIN

Augustine is having a great year. Needs another year in school to get his head right. He's young and is prone to freshman mistakes. Another pg i enjoy watching is conley from Ohio state. Watched him and oden play their college ball right down the road from me. When ohio state recruited oden they took conley as a sweetner. That turned out to be a pretty good recruit. He needs to develope more of a jump shot, but he's awfully quick to the rim. Reynolds may be the most rounded freshman pg though. He just didn't get much press this year.

Paul, you have to remember though that texas is a loaded team. Reynolds was expected to carry much more of the load then augustine was. Durant is such a bailout for a pg, because he can play high or low. As of right now i'd take reynolds, but you could make a case for either one. Rey

actually, Conley initially committed to OSU and he brought Oden along as a package Mike Conley Sr. (apparently to be Oden's agent), and, I believe, coach of their AAU team, didn't care for Mike Davis (can you blame him?) at IU and passed it along to his son who passed it along to Oden. Anyone else but Davis at IU and Oden stays home.

But Texas starts 4 freshman and 1 sophmore... Zero starters back from last year. This in part explains how horrible Texas was in the first half of the year imo, and why they are much better now. They still go out because they have zero interior D. And I had heard that Oden story. Very interesting.

But... People spend that much time putting a video together expressing their juvenile hatred of a team and they dont know why... It was very well done though. I will show my daughter as she hates Duke and does not know why. This will give her comfort knowing no one knows. She is not alone.

I hate them because they didn't even belong in this Tournament and they got in, they get way more calls than they are due, they rarely travel for non-conference, and everyone has this false image of how all of the players are smart and good people. Ever wonder why so many Duke players major in Sociology? Because it's a Degree designed to get them through school, they get credit for classes even while playing overseas. I know this stuff goes on at all schools, but there's this perception that it doesn't happen at Duke, which is total bull.

Well done Pillow, that was hilarious.
At every Cincinnati home game they show highlights of past teams, they always finish with UC beating Duke on a last second shot, it's kind of lame, but I get a kick out of it every time. Huggins is a terrible in game coach, but for that one time, he outcoached that little weasel.

I think its the spoiled rich kid thing. I watch Christian Laettner on the sideline and I see a spoiled rich kid for some reason. Besides, Duke's student fan base invented that pogo hop that now has become the new wave that really gets old. Duke will be right back next year. A good incoming class.

Yes conley committed but he was not a stud in high school, why would ohio state go after him, ah yes, because oden was his best friend. Conley crapped himself when ohio state offered him a scholorship and accepted it right away, guess how many other big time programs were looking at him..... Oden had always said he wanted conley to be with him when he went to college. Now, I'm not a basketball coach but if i have a top recruit that said he'd love to play with a high school teamate, i would go out of my way to sign him as early as possible. Ohio state recruited conley to get to oden. Not the other way around.

duke and duke fans are FINALLY experiencing what Tar Heel fans have gone through for decades. coach k can NOT keep the guys from turning pro early! duke used to be famous for guys staying in school. NO longer!
when guys leave early there are no mentors or experience for the young guys to look to. the young guys have to step in and fill holes before they are ready, couple that with graduation and you saw what happens. some of the old guys on here can back this up. Tar Heel fans have lived this for YEARS! Dean Smith had teams torn apart every couple years. thats why he only won 2 NC's. it was actually amazing that Dean Smith kept that program in the top 5-10 for 27 years. 27? straight 20 win seasons,he had a couple 20 win seasons when the tourny was only 16 teams and didn't get in because they didn't win the acc tourny.
