Recruiting - Hoops

Well, we lost another one to Duke. Jamal Boykin has decided to become a Duke BlueDevil. Link here....... Here's another story on it....I have to say, this one really disappoints me. Everything you read about the kid is that he is a hard worker and a leader. You constantly hear that he is undersized, cannot jump well, is not super-athletic, but just seems to win everywhere he plays, and always puts up the number. He just seemed like a character kid who would anchor a team. That's one reason why it steams me that he's headed to Duke. He was down to Duke, Louisville and GT, but everyone knew that if Duke offered he would probably accept. Well, it has happened.

Here's more on the coming recruiting changes, focusing on the elimination of the use of private planes.
