They are trying to get a few top recruits from 2016 to reclassify in this class.
 
May not work but they are trying regardless.
 
They need a PG.
 
Right now, Kennard and Allen will share PG duties.  
 
They have a decent amount down low.  They have those 2 great shooters.  But they need a PG and another wing guy if possible.

And Duke got Derrick Thornton to reclassify for 2015 and he will likely be the teams starting PG next year. He was rated the #2 PG for 2016 and is now looked at as #1 for 2015.

Huge get for Duke. He is bigger and more athletic than Jones. Known to have good court vision and could be an elite perimeter defender.

It's Brandon Ingram day...one of the best recruits left.

Sounds like it's Duke or UNC.

Well, it might be now or never, with the recruiting being severely hampered by the academic scandal.

I'm surprised that has impacted recruiting in any real meaningful way. That's interesting to hear.

Yea, there has been a few things written on it Nationally. Supposedly it's killing them.

Why? Probably only a matter of time before the basketball program gets hit and it could happen at any point.

Only a matter of time, Chris. I really can't believe that isn't already a thing. (Domestically I mean)

He once told a newspaper he never left the program because the other 300 Division I head-coaching jobs weren't better than his job as an assistant.

@marchmadness: OFFICIAL! 30-sec shot clock, 4-foot arc, reduction in time outs among changes coming to men's basketball next season. http://t.co/qgLqt0BS6D

[You Play to Win the Game]

4-foot arc? I assume they mean below the bucket like in the NBA?

 

Great news. There's really no good reason for not going down to 25 or so. But I'll take the 5 seconds as a minor victory. These things tend to happen in baby steps.

[Chris B]

That is correct.

And this is the right move. No chance they were going to go any lower right off the bat.

[SportsGuy]

Good news for sure. I think it should be 28 seconds or so but 30 is better than nothing.
