On the topic of recruiting and the fact Duke seems to have their way with recruits, did anyone know these nuggets:
1) Adam Silver is a Duke grad
2) Grant Hill is the MD of Team USA's Selection Committee
3) Their GM is an ex Nike Executive
4) That Brian Scalabrini, when first discovering Cooper Flagg, made two calls. One to Team USA and another to Duke.
I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but might there be some horseplay that give Duke an unlevel advantage in CBB?

Why ??
Trending to IU^^
Think we sit in a really good spot with Brady Pettigrew right now. I don't think they are in a rush to add a ton until the season is over, going to push for retention then add around that in the offseason.

Dip your nuggets in my staff source sauce.
IU must be throwing a huge offer at the kid.
Damn would’ve preferred him at Arizona if it wasn’t us. Not excited by the prospect of Izzo and now IU already loading up on ‘27 talent. McCoy Jr. is essentially a ‘27 freshman now too if he stays at Michigan. And I know Purdue has a notable recruit coming in too.
What is IU’s sell … big NIL $$? Don’t think IU comes close to the other two in terms of recent history of being a winning program or developing guys into NBA players.
