Duke = California Basketball U?

[Channing]

We have now successfully recruited Mr. Basketball California for 2 of the last 4 years, if I'm not mistaken: Demarcus, and now Taylor King. I'm sure Ben Howland isnt too happy about that.

Mazel Tov Taylor!

It's an impressive list, but it doesn't include Boykin.http://www.ocvarsity.com/ocvarsity/s...le_1646914.php

Any word on where Jamal will be playing basketball in the future?

Boykin @ Cal-Berkeley.

We have done well recruiting in California, but sometimes our Cali guys don't live up to their hype. I am sure I am forgetting some, but the following come to mind...Nelson(he's been OK but not great), Boykin(was thought of as a role player, but transferred), Ricky Price(really disappointing career based on hype), Meek(very limited athletically), Parks(had a solid career, but i think we all wanted more. Unfortunatley tied to the '95 season), Bilas(solid 5th option on one of my favorite teams, but probably better as a TV analyst than player). Maybe Mr. King will turn it around though I feel like his lack of athleticism will hurt.

if only Cali had worked out like Alaska has . . .

[jimsumner]

Ben Bennett worked out.

Didnt Nelson break like PTS and REB record in Cali or something?

[dukeisawesome]

Let's focus on Alaska (Langdon, Boozer) and Virginia (Redick, Hill).

Points leader and something like 5th in rebounding (impressive considering his size).

Oh, and Chris Burgess from Mater Dei (sound familliar?)

I forgot about Chris Burgess....geeze! How could a Duke fan forget about Chris Burgess? Let's get back to the fine states of Alaska and Virginia quickly!

[Lord Ash]

Nelson is the All Time California top scorer and third highest all time rebounder.
