I could talk about George Mikans, but I don't know how many people remember what that drill entails, but it's something you can do on your own.
Ironically, the article also says that he has accepted the the idea of being a complementary player, which would have been perfect on this year's team.
Finally, a bit of humor on the idea of him getting his Duke degree. At the end of his sophomore year he had to declare a major, and he was joking around at Cameron that he would choose nuclear physics. I don't think that course of study will work out, but I hope that some day he will return and choose another major.
