Duke/Recruiting

Yeah he went to Duke for the integrity, because he and his family have shown a great deal of that lmao. Wake up !

These kids don't give a crap about tradition. It's all about the Benjamin's, even at Duke.

BS! These players are all out for themselves! You are naive to believe that it doesn’t happen there or anywhere else

If you don’t think Duke cheats then you are just ignorant. They all cheat. It’s not that Duke or any school doesn’t want to be clean it’s that if you want the best players now you have to be willing to give something to not only the kid and his family but most of them have a handler as well.

Link ?

You think you’re the only one who thinks, or knows duke cheats? The ncaa isn’t looking for cheating at any school. The only time they take any action is because someone brought info to them and the media. So they have to do something. And their going to do as little as possible when it comes to sanctions. The North Carolina academic scandal was seriously bad, and they did absolutely nothing to them.

Gonna have to disagree with you there.....Coach K has built that program over the course of 30 years. LSU (We) went from total obscurity to a top 10 team overnight. I’m not a Duke fan but you have to admit that their program recruits itself. A multitude of national championships and a coach with his resume, to include coaching the Olympics, leads me to believe their program is more than likely squeaky clean.

Coach K has been there for over 30 years, but it didn't take him near that long to build his program. He didn't get off to the best start, as I've heard it, but within a couple of years he had an elite program.

Basketball is the one sport where you CAN have an almost instantaneous turnaround. Whether or not you can sustain that success is another story.

You only have five starters, and you don't NEED more than three or four guys coming off the bench in your regular rotation. So if you are a really good recruiter and coach, you can do what Will Wade has done.

With the kind of money that is thrown around these days, and how much blue chip recruits are wrapped up in it, it's very hard to believe the likes of coach K have not had to adapt to the "system" to maintain success. The guy can coach, but that doesn't mean he's not bending some rules.

“Hey, but between me and you, he asked about some stuff … I know what he’s asking for,” Code said, per Wetzel. “He’s asking for opportunities from an occupational perspective, he’s asking for cash in the pocket and he’s asking for housing for him and his family.”

“I’ve got to just try to work and figure out a way because if that’s what it takes to get him here for 10 months, we’re going to have to do it some way,” Townsend responded.

Do you know the meaning of the word integrity? He and his family should demand money. I know I would if it’s my son. And you would also. Lying, cheating, stealing, and killing is what this shameless country was founded on. And it hasn’t stopped. It’s as American as apple pie.

No such thing as a clean program in major college football or basketball.
