Tyler Adams to Georgetown

[lilblue]

Just read this on another board! Can anyone confirm?

[Greg_Newton]

A guy on TDD who has been in the know on a few things in the past is claiming that Adams just committed to Duke. There is also a new thread on the premium board titled "Tyler Adams!!" Coincidence? I'd guess not.

I don't have any inside info on Adams, but it sure seems like it's a done deal.

If so, welcome to Duke!

a 6'8 center is a hard sell....especially when our PG last year was 5'6

You're right, Duke could never win anything with a 6'8" widebody.

I hope it's true, if so Welcome to DUKE Tyler Adams.

Welcome to DUKE....if??

I can think of 3 players at 6'9 that did pretty well for Duke. This kid is still in high school, he has time to grow.

He's ours. He got swept off his feet by Nate-Dogg and then K sealed it earlier this week.

Tyler Adams is Duke's next big man.

[Welcome2DaSlopes]

Yep, just read more on the tdd board and it's official. Nice. Hopefully AR and QM follow.

FWIW, I've seen him listed as 6'9, 265 in a few places.

[baby-face dawkins]

Yep was just confirmed via facebook, Tyler Adams is officially coming to Duke!

[BD80]

That's why we have such a short "big man" coach, to make our post players look bigger.

Z was actually only 6'5"


I hope this info is accurate, GREAT NEWS !!!!!

.especially when our PG last year was 5'6

I assume you meant to type 6'5" and not 5'6".

Welcome to the family, Tyler! We're thrilled you're joining us!

Elton Brand was listed at 6'8" while at Duke, and Carlos Boozer was only an inch taller at 6'9". As for a 5'6" point guard, I have no idea where you got that one.

Finally someone with GIRTH.

He's a meaty dude... that's why they call him "Double Down" Adams...

...and by "they," I mean me.

I have as well. And he has barely stepped foot in the weight room. You better believe Nate will have that boy working.

[Dukeknights]

omg...watch out. Here we come, again. K is loading up.

I'm pretty sure he was joking. And why did you post the 08-09 roster?
