Woohoo!
Getting the #1 player is starting to become routine. Welcome to the brotherhood!
Woohoo!
Just be you. You is enough. - K, 4/5/10, 0:13.8 to play, 60-59 Duke.
You're all jealous hypocrites. - Titus on Laettner
You see those guys? Animals. They're animals. - SIU Coach Chris Lowery, on Duke
RJ Barrett coming to Duke.
Nice!!!
Woot! Smart young man making good choices.
Announcement was well done, not drawn out like some. Welcome!

Welcome, sir!
This kid highhandedly dominated Team USA in the FIBA U18 summer championship; I see a little Kobe in him. Besides a healthy Giles, I think this is the highest upside recruit Duke has ever had.
Hope he doesn't change his mind in grade 13.
All the recruits we got in the past year:
Wendell Carter
GTJ
Jordan Goldwire
Jordan Tucker
Trevon Duvall
Marvin Bagley
Cameron Reddish
Tre Jones
Joey Baker
RJ Barret
That's an NBA team plus some front court subs.
My favorite of his mixtapes due to the epic orchestral music accompanying his FIBA heroics: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5oW_IcDVMM
For the French Canadians on here (or anyone who speaks French, I suppose), here's a very good breakdown (including critical analysis) of his game: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6g3ohnmeNoY
Welcome to Duke, RJ!!!

2018 class so far. Only 1 team in the country has a top 6 recruit to this point . . . and we have 3 of them.

Since you have allowed this Canajun on your board for 10ish years, it’s only fair that Duke gets something in return.
Woohoo! Very exciting news!
Amazing news!!!
Welcome RJ!
The staff is recruiting quality kids at a ridiculously high level/rate. The investments in the basketball facilities and the strategic foresight to include the various sports medicine aspects of Duke and the next gen technology have really paid off.
Having the GOAT on the bench doesn't hurt ...
