    Should be a big weekend! Whitehead committing on Sunday! Should he commit, that's quite a start to the class!

    Love kids who climb in the rankings and get better throughout their high school career. Great building piece for Scheyer’s future!
    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    Scouting Report of Kyle Filipowski

    Ant Wright does some of the better high school recruiting profiles on YouTube. Here's one he did about a month ago on Filipowski. This kid is going to end up as a 5-star/top 25 type player by the time all is said and done. Every report I've read raves about "Flip" and the way he moves, handles, passes, and especially shoots the ball. He's a good but not overwhelming athlete at 6'11" 230 lbs. I mean, how many players like that come around every year? He's as skilled and talented a player as you'll see. I'm excited to see him in Duke blue.

    We're going to need a monster class in 2022 so this is an incredible start. Landing Whitehead on Sunday would really signal that our recruiting stranglehold can continue in the post-K era. A 6'11 shooter is an incredible get; as with any big men in the modern era one of the big questions will be how well he can defend in space. Congrats to the staff for getting it done!

    This makes sense, yet it is still a little surprising.

    Scheyer has spearheaded Duke's 2022 recruiting efforts, with Krzyzewski not going on the road in June and July to watch recruits.

    Also, this from the same article. Great to read these words.

    "Coach K retiring didn't change how I felt about Duke," Filipowski said. "I've been building this relationship with Coach Scheyer for over six months now, and the vision he has, not just for me but for my class, is something that I can envision myself in. I believe in him and what he is planning. I think being a part of that and helping him make his own name at Duke would be something very special for both of us. I just wanted to carry on the dynasty of Duke but also create a foundation with Coach Scheyer."
    Q "Why do you like Duke, you didn't even go there." A "Because my art school didn't have a basketball team."

    Favorite 2022 commit!

    1. He goes to school in MA

    2. He's an excellent shooter

    3. He's Scheyer's first recruit (and, let's face it, Coach K definitely helped. And that's okay!)

    4. Kentucky and UNC offered him

    I absolutely love this signing. This kid looks like he could be a stud. Already listed at 6’10”, 230 lbs in some places.

    Coach Scheyer is on the board with his first signing!

    Actually listed as 6'11" by 247. Which means he's probably 6'10" but has a year of HS growth coming up!

    Everything I've seen and read about Kyle screams Ryan Kelly 2.0. If he can attain that (lofty) ceiling, considering the need for floor spacers at the 4 in the modern game, he's going to be BIG for the 2022 team.

    Seems like momentum is everything in recruiting, and now Coach Scheyer has some. Whitehead could turn that into an avalanche of momentum if things go our way there in the coming days. It's WAY too early to start thinking about who from this year's squad will be back in 2022, but there could be some great returning pieces to complement those two 5* freshmen.

    Exciting times
