The race for Luol Deng, the #2 prospect from the 2003 class will come down to Coach K vs. Quin Snyder. GO QUIN! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />
</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Luol Deng
The nation's top prospect (non-LeBron James division) is still officially considering a bunch of college options (Indiana, Virginia, George Washington), but this might come down to a head-to-head battle between Duke and Missouri. Which means it is Mike Krzyzewski against his former player and longtime assistant, Quin Snyder, for this 6-foot-7 small forward playing in New Jersey.
Interesting? Yes, this could get very interesting.
Snyder was in part responsible for rewriting the Duke recruiting manual during the 1990s. He helped turn the Blue Devils back into a national powerhouse, able to attract top players after a steady diet of Greg Newtons and Joey Beards left the program sliding toward relative mediocrity.
Upon arriving at Mizzou four seasons ago, he turned that program into a national recruiting force again and led the Tigers to the Elite Eight a season ago. He is a tough, resourceful recruiter, but can he trump his mentor? Or is Duke just going to grab the best player it wants as usual? Time will tell.

IMO, Duke gets Deng and Ebi goes elsewhere (Arizona or Texas).

From my research on Ebi, it looks like Arizona is still very much in the mix. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="biggrin.gif" />
