... the Duke-Maryland game He's a kid we may well offer in the near future.
To everyone wondering when Duke would get involved with another big man. Mason is 6-10 or 6-11 and is very involved with Georgetown, UCLA, Louisville, and several others. Our biggest competition should come from Indiana and Stanford. His brother, class of 2008, will be going to Stanford next year. He is also originally from Indiana and probably has some strong hometown feelings for the Hoosiers.
He is rated just outside the top 50 in the excellent 2009 class, but it is still early and I have heard his stock is rising.

Thanks. Is Leslie McDonald scheduled for a visit anytime soon ?
I understand if this question cannot be answered outside of the BDN premium board.
You are right on that one. The news on Mason will be public knowledge in a western North Carolina newspaper tomorrow, so I decided to drop the dime. I hope that the Cameron Crazies are on their game. Of course, why wouldn't they be for Maryland. Still, it is always nice to give kids a brief notice even on unofficials.
i have forwarded the message to the LM in charge of the cheer sheet for MD...I will make sure that the crazies know
watzone...keep letting us (the non members of BDN premium board) know about prospects visits and Ill keep the cheer sheets/crazies up to date
I'm like 75% close to signing up at your site as a premium member - being smitten by the recruitment news more so than in the past. Regardless, am a regular reader of BDN, and have always enjoyed reading your posts (starting with the one that broke the news about DeMarcus).
How about holding off on the cheer sheet until I can confirm he is coming for sure and that it might be the thing to do in reconizing him. He is a talented young man but does not hold an offer at this time.
will do
I'll guarantee you that this is huge news
Go ahead! Hit the link;)
Scout.com actually has him at #39, for what it's worth.

Duke isn't even listed for consideration, so it's interesting to see him doing an informal visit. We don't usually do too well with North Carolina guys, so this might be fu.
s.i.
p.s. - I guess I don't know how to link

Article was published yesterday. Nice that he has Duke on his list, even if he doesn't have an offer yet. (Hope he doesn't read the thread about Czyz, who appears to be the second coming of Patrick Davidson. It might scare him off!)
This from his coach on NC Independent Schools Rivals site:
Coach K offers Mason Plumlee

What happened to the big from Yugo?
Plumlee is ranked 60 by rivals and 39 by scout. Does anyone know if he is one of those late bloomers now on the rise or is the staff starting to think we are going to miss out on Echenique, Painter and Riley? I am glad that it looks like the staff is casting a wider net but it is hard to tell if they are going after guys they think are studs or guys because they are tall.
Anyone got a scoop on this guy?
More telling than the numbers that Dave Telep and Jerry Meyer assign a guy, in my book, is the list of schools that have offered a particular guy. In Plumlee's case, he has scholarship offers from Georgetown, Indiana, Louisville, Michigan, Stanford, Tennessee, UCLA, Wake Forest and Xavier. I'd say he's probably pretty good.
