What I like most about his tweets? He's gonna bring some serious swagger whereever he goes...

Quincy deserves to stay at the top of the boards. He would (will) bring a physicality that can alter games.

@kyrieirving wassup bro

Can't be a bad thing either. Wish he would just go ahead and commit. It would be a bummer if he pulled a HB on us.

I agree that it is nice to sign recruits early and I certainly would love to get Miller on board sooner rather than later but early recruits can backfire also. Some kids blossom and peak early which means a guy you sign as a junior thinking he will be a stud turns into a roll player and now you have used that scholarship and you don't have room for later bloomer like MP2 or Irving. I have read some people say that both Stickland and Marshall fit the early bloomer category and that while they were highly ranked as underclassmen, their ranks dropped some as other guys came into their own.

The other problem with signing guys too early is you can run into situations like Taylor King or (hopefully) Austin Rivers where they change their minds because they decided too early.

Like I said, I would very much like to get Miller (and Rivers for that matter) on board as soon as possible, but just because unc seems to be signing all of their recruits early doesn't mean they will end up being the best recruits later.

I can't believe I am following what high school kids say on twitter, but it is what it is I guess.

Kyrie's response when asked if he is ready for Duke next year:

kyrieirving

@qmillertime lol yea I'm ready the question is are you

And then Miller's response:

qmillertime

@kyrieirving haha I'm always ready bro..it's coming! ;)

This has got to be a good sign, no?

And the evaluations of these kids get more accurate as they get more exposure, as some may rise and some may fall (for better OR WORSE). Think about the twin bigs in Chapel Hell (Wear brothers). Ole Huck got their commitments way early - like start of Junior year of HS sorta thing - when they were top-15-20 in their class. But as time went on they faded a little and wound up, by most accounts, in the 30's somewhere. In the meantime Roy passed on Mason Plumlee (who ultimately came to be ranked in the 10 -15 range in his class). Yes, there certainly is such a thing as getting commitments too early!

:cool:

Agree, but he is a Duke FAN, and so we should not be too surprised that he is following those damned devils!!

This brings up a question... have we ever lost on a recruit that was a confirmed Duke "Fan" and that we offered??

Is this kid a 3 or a 4? I've heard he has a bounce like a 3. And standing at 6'8 that's where Singler and Robinson were last night at the 3. But when you see his twitter he's getting 10 blocks a game it seems like... anybody?
