I agree it would be nice but there's some obstacles in Duke's way to landing 4* recruits in football. Academics probably number one obstacle with Duke's reputation for being a poor football school. None of these kids remember Duke's success back in the 60's and even before that. Coach Cut has landed some good young players but has used them in their freshmen years. Many successful programs red-shirt those players but Duke hasn't for the most case.
GoDuke!

Is he (Broadnax) related to a former football player for Duke?
That QB looks pretty good, too. Package deal? Protection wasn't bad either. Just saying.

BangBang DukeGang21!
Duke receives a commitment from a three star NC DB with offers from Northwestern, NCS, WF among others. Sorry I can’t link now.
Thinking this is the guy you are talking about. (Also brought up in the offseason thread, but this one is more fitting.)
