Worries me that our head coach is in New Hamster, but Wolfeboro is a nice place if he can get in and out of there quickly

Good news on Mgbako from behind enemy lines at mgoblog:
The final offer went out to 5-star wing Mackenzie Mgbako of Gill St. Bernard (NJ). An elite shooter at around 6'8, he's widely considered a Duke lock. Don't get you hopes up here.

247Sports' Dushawn London is reporting that the coaching staff will be in New Hampshire today to take in a pair of top targets, G/F Matas Buzelis and 5* SF Taylor Bol Bowen.
Bowen is a new name on the Duke radar. He's a 6'7-8" forward from Vermont, playing for Brewster Academy. He's long and athletic and with a good-looking outside touch. Kind of an ideal big wing a la Ingram/Tatum (in body type if not quite overall talent and skill level).
247Sports just released its new player rankings for the Class of 2023.
At this early junction, Caleb Foster is the only player ranked inside the top 73 that has committed. The primary targets that have emerged for Duke have all received a bump in their recruiting rankings, some by significant margins.
SF Mackenzie Mgbako up to #3 (+10) Received an offer
G/F Matas Buzelis up to #4 (+39)
F/C GG Jackson up to #8 (+23) Received an offer
PG Caleb Foster up to #12 (+7) Committed to Duke
SF Taylor Bowen up to #21 (+4)

Depends on your definition of "far." It would appear the son is a great basketball player, one of the top 50 or so in his age group among the millions who play basketball in high school. He is far better at basketball than anyone on this board has ever been in our wildest dreams. But, he is not one of the all-time greats at the game like his father is. He is closer to his father's level of greatness than 99.9% of the folks who dribble a ball... but that last tenth of a percent is a heck of a long way to travel.
It is sorta like Charles Edison, a wonderfully accomplished man who was an accomplished businessman, Secretary of the Navy, and Governor of New Jersey... but didn't have nearly the impact on the world that his father, Thomas Edison, did.
