Does he know that Amaker doesn't coach there anymore?

Truly, the number of NBA player relatives on UM has to be the highest in the nation by far.

As long as Shelden's children come to Duke ...

Haha I was thinking the exact same thing. But with all due respect to an all-time Duke great, they should probably be referred to as "Candace Parker's children."

Michigan always find great undervalued recruits

Congrats to young Dawk. I would have loved to have seen him come to Duke. Looks like a solid 4 year player which we could use more of these days. Hopefully he develops into a solid College player. Johnny D is one of my personal all time favorite Blue Devils. I wish young Aubrey lots of success at Michigan. He just has to promise to never beat Duke. :)

Congrats to the Dawkins family.

Sorry... I don't really keep up with recruiting. Was JD's son recruited by Duke? :confused:

No. He is a 2-star recruit well outside the top-100. The Michigan offer stands out as it doesn't appear that any other BCS schools were interested.

I mean, I guess there is always the chance that he pulls a Steph/Seth Curry, but in general I think we are better served looking at higher-profile guys (regardless of lineage).

Yeah, here's some additional info from his rivals.com profile for Aubrey Dawkins (https://rivals.yahoo.com/bwi/basketball/recruiting/player-Aubrey-Dawkins-122147;_ylt=AqNsFDjNdm1xJmc.JAhJ7k6.rJB4)

Interesting to see that he also got a late offer from Archie Miller at Dayton.

John Beilein at Michigan seems good at developing players who fit his system. Good luck to young Mr. Dawkins.
