Our Three Commits For Next Season (so far)
Mar 24, 2018, 10:31 AM

Hopefully this Trey Jemison (see link below) will be "out of the box" ready to provide support to Thomas. We can't expect Thomas to play every second of every game next season.
I am sure they are also scouring the airwaves to perhaps find a graduate transfer also ... right now from what I see, a viable Thomas backup is our biggest need.

Disagree. Our biggest need will be replacing Devoe at the wing. Scott Spencer and AJ Oliver will need to make a huge jump.

I think that AJ is the heir apparant

Unless of course someone else just explodes with obviousness during the "off" season. He AJ seemed to be getting lots of minutes last half of the season.

Oliver needs to bulk up a little. His shot looks fluid...

Still think we need another scorer like a good grad transfer. Hope we find him this spring.

Wrong! Where do you think the Zion spot was going to go if he commited? We only had 12 spots taken up so besides the three replacing the three, we had another ship to offer. Still do...

you are right, we have one more spot left. A front court grad transfer would be nice

We're actually still in the mix for 6'10, 5 star

E.J. Montgomery out of Georgia. He's listed as a heavy Duke lean but they already have two, top 5 power forwards signed for next season. Kentucky, Auburn, FSU also in there.
Grad transfer is likely but if somehow we could swoop in on this guy, now we're talking. I also believe We'll see Malik William become a factor in the post next year

nice looking prospect

and Thomas really needs to put in the work over the summer. It was encouraging to hear him say that last night's loss will be motivation for him to get better, but my lord he has struggled finishing under the basket.

EJ is headed to Duke 100%
He has been there 4 times in the past 2 months and according to the Duke board, has already chosen housing for next year.

Since Duke already has the top 2 PF's in the class
Mar 24, 2018, 10:11 PM

the numbers 1 and 3 overall, not sure they can take him. And unless he wants to red shirt, why would he go there is the question. Only one plays at a time.

At the risk of seeming to pile on, I 'd like to see him bulk up in his lower body so he can explode off the floor and power through those hands and arms that get in his way. It'll help him maintain position too.

I saw this on another site recently and was going to post it in your thread titled "going forward" I think it was. What a jewel for the class Montgomery would be!

There are rumors that we are in on EJ Montgomery

4/5 star big man who was leaning Duke, but it doesn't look like Duke will have room for him. I wouldn't count on it, but it would be a nice consolation to losing out on Zion.

Duke right now is at -2 Scholarships
Seniors 1 Grayson Allen
Juniors 2 Antonio Vrankovic
Sophomores 3 Jack White 4 Javin DeLaurier 5 Justin Robinson 6 Marques Bolden
Freshmen 7 Trevon Duval 8 Jordan Goldwire Mike Buckmire (Walk on no scholarships) 9 Gary Trent 10 Alex O'Connell 11 Wendell Carter 12 Marvin Bagley
Commits Tre Jones 13 Cam Reddish 14 R.J. Barrett 15 Zion Williamson 16
Puts Duke 3 over.
Allen graduates, Bagley and Carter go pro getting Duke Even Robinson goes off scholarship not needing the money with DR as a father.
or
Duval and Trent go pro.
Duke will have 1 and maybe up to 3 for the late signing period
