    Camp season underway

    Duke kicked off their camp season today with the first of their 1-day camps.

    Here's a little more on Duke's camp schedule and other updates: BDN Football Friday

    Also, here's a free article on Josh Dobbs, a good-looking QB prospect who just took his 2nd trip to Durham.

    It looks like we received a commitment from WR/CB Johnell Barnes:

    The Blue Devils secured two commitments after camp this past weekend. Recruiting season is in full swing, and several freshmen have moved onto campus this week.

    Good pick up, Bob. Not sure I trust any of those WR from Florida, though .

    This may be the off season, but with the camps in operation, it's prime time for more good news to emerge!

    4 new commitments!

    Sterling Korona - 6'7 250 lb. OL that the staff has been high on. Highlights.

    Darren Andrews - 5'10 160 WR/CB, 3-stars by Scout and Rivals. Highlights.


    And a couple of sleepers:

    Mikey Ramsay - 6'3 260 OL/LB. Highlights.

    Gabe Brandner - 6'6 OT, supposedly ran a 4.9 40. Also looks like Clemson offered after he committed, so hopefully we keep him.

    Watzone/BDN's @PatrickCacchio has been on top of it on twitter if you want more info. Eventful weekend, apparently!

    Coach Cutcliffe continues to use the camps quite effectively to sort out good recruits who are coachable. I don't think this is the last such good news!

    Here's a quick summary: Duke Football receives 4 commitments in 24 hours

    Ramsay is definitely a sleeper who impressed at camp. Brandner is a guy who was lightly recruited because he plays in a private school league, but he is a legit player. I doubt Clemson will be the only competition we have for him before it's all said and done (but they might be the toughest).

    As for Korona, the staff has been very high on him and were really the first to get after him, which certainly helped in the end. Andrews is another player who is under recruited, possible because he's played both CB and WR. I think he'll get a long look at WR for the Blue Devils, and he's excelled there on the camp/7v7 circuit.

    I don't always drink beer, but when I do I prefer Sterling Korona. Stay thirsty, my friends!

    Wow, tons of size in there.

    Actually, not quite. Almost HALF a ton though... As a ton is 2,000 pounds -- so we have a few more linemen to go...

    From what I've seen/heard, Ramsay may project as a DT, so it's a start. Jay Woods and De'Asian Richardson would be two big-impact DLs that Duke has made an impression on.

    Sterling Korona

    Here's a Sterling Korona interview. The 6'7" 250 pound OL is solid to Duke.

    Gabe Brandner

    New commit Gabe Brandner chose the Blue Devils over in-state Clemson, despite picking up an offer on the same day. He says he's a man of his word: http://bluedevilnation.net/2012/06/a...tment-to-duke/
