    Jacob is something of a legacy. His dad, Stanley, played at Duke and had quite a career as a Blue Devil.

    I posted about Mike Buckmire, son of Duke grad and 1986 NCAA Soccer Champion, Michael Buckmire, in another thread. Jacob's dad, Stanley, lived a few doors down the hall from me in Wannamaker in 1984, our Freshman year. Stanley was a running back and an all around good guy.

    Nice to see some legacies coming back to play sports at Duke, but it sure does make me feel old when the parents are people I hung out with!

    Thanks for the good news! It is nice to get the first player committed to start the process. At 6'4" 285, with two years remaining in high school, Monk is definitely a big one.

    My understanding is that we had a big contingency of recruits at the game yesterday, wonder if he was there.

    Welcome, young man!

    Stanley Monk was a real BMOC. That guy had style. If I recall, he wore some pretty outlandish outfits and used to go double-strap on his backpack. And he was a really good player. This is indeed great news.

    His son is a formidable offensive guard, perhaps the best in NC in his class, and he weighs 285 as a junior. Look forward to having him.

    According to Scout, he was at the NW game. It looks like Adam Rowe and John Watson keep a list of who will be at what games, pretty cool.

    Tony Davis, a cornerback has verbally committed to Duke:

    At 6-foot-2 and 190 pounds, Davis is a big corner who visited Duke unofficially back in mid-October following an early Blue Devil offer.

    Running List of Verbals

    I show six verbal commitments, with five of the six being in state recruits:

    1. Jacob Monk (OL)
    2. Tony Davis (DB)
    3. Jalen Alexander (DB)
    4. Isiah Kemp (DB)
    5. Zonovan Knight (RB)
    6. Donavon Greene (WR)

    Signing in state recruits is a double win. Not only do we get them, we keep them out of Chapel Hill, Raleigh and Winston-Salem.

    This is already being discussed in the off season thread but I'm adding it here for consistency purposes and to update the running list of verbals.

    WR Eli Pancol has verbally committed to Duke. He also had offers from Louisville, Vanderbilt, Northwestern, Indiana, Purdue and Cincinnati.

    1. Jacob Monk (OL)
    2. Tony Davis (DB)
    3. Jalen Alexander (DB)
    4. Isiah Kemp (DB)
    5. Zonovan Knight (RB)
    6. Donavon Greene (WR)
    7. Eli Pancol (WR)

    Some really nice pick ups and happy to see us adding WR's and another RB. I think we're in need of some LB's, Kicking help and possibly DL's.

    Thoughts on this Bob as to what we're in need to be hunting for position wise?

    Defensive linemen, linebackers, offensive linemen and the team needs a quarterback in every class.
