'19 CA PG Rejean "Boogie" Ellis (Verbal to Duke)

[Not Sure]

Losing a basketball recruit to Duke is like losing a football recruit to Alabama. I won’t feel too bad about this one.

We’re plenty good enough to get this kind of recruit.

Please expand on this.

Math is hard?

Final 8, final 9, who’s counting

I agree with you but consistently finishing 5th to 10th in the Pac-12 does hurt. I believe in Tad Boyle, but unless we begin finishing in the top 4 more consistently, thus winning more often, we likely don't stand a chance in grabbing many players of this caliber. I'm just saying.

Final 8 + "secret 2" finally back in play!

Memphis is the school from what the rumor mill is saying. Can you imagine losing a 5 star and still be ranked number 1 in the class.

It's about winning National Championships, not Signing Periods. Too often coaches get lost in that whole mess and they end up putting together a team that doesn't fit what they are trying to do. Avery Johnson and Antoine Pettway recruited to make Rivals, 247 happy... they didn't get anything out of it. In fact, Pettway recruited really well for Anthony Grant too and the results were the same.
Virginia, Texas Tech, Iowa State, Tennessee, Michigan, Purdue all recruit well, but are not getting hyped by recruiting media. They find the guys who fit what they are trying to accomplish and the style they want to play.

Here are the seven best fit coaches for Boogie Ellis based on metrics... the common theme are coaches who want to spread the floor and play 4 and 5 out Basketball on offense to cater to Boogie's penchant for shooting 3s.

Agreed I was only commenting that a school, Duke in this case can lose a highly rated player like Ellis and still have the number 1 rated class. I think it's safe to say coach K is fair at knowing how to build a program.

FBI agrees.
