Kinda hard to judge him from highlights because his competition looks pretty rough. Also visiting Valpo and Belmont, planning on visiting Drake and Elon. Belmont offering actually says something, because they offer basically nobody and their talent identification (at least for their system) is absurd.

Plays for Glenbrook South, where former Duke player and just-announced-today new Duke HC-in-waiting Jon Scheyer played. (The GS coach at the time was Dave Weber, brother of then-Illinois coach Bruce Weber, yet Illinois still couldn't land Scheyer. ). Brother plays for Northwestern.

Scheyer has his work cut out for him. Not the coaching, obviously. The whole clearly paying players but somehow getting away with it for 30 years. Let's see how much of the dark arts he's learned from Coach K.

Thank you. This veneration of that guy makes me ill, when everyone even tangentially connected to college basketball knows what's been going on for decades (not to mention the crazy ways some of those players actually are accepted into Duke -and stay eligible).
