Yeah that's a bizarre post at this moment...
Looks like it is one of several tweets from ACC media day in Charlotte today.This, uhhh, seems like a strange post by the official Duke MBB account at a time like this. I mean, it seems strange to hint this obviously but would also be really weird to post this and then have the kids spur Duke 24 hours later.
I’m officially confused and intrigued at the same time:
I agree it seems strange, but I am simply going to interpret it as a shout out to Carlos, and not any hint of things to come. Although I agree with the bolded part. Hopefully someone thought through the possible outcomes. I assume Jon has to approve these tweets?This, uhhh, seems like a strange post by the official Duke MBB account at a time like this.

This. I would absolutely expect DMBB to post something related to a joint interview at media day that featured Jon Scheyer and Carlos Boozer. People are WAY overthinking this. It ain't got nuthin' to do with recruiting.Looks like it is one of several tweets from ACC media day in Charlotte today.
And now a pre-emptive public service announcement.
Ben Ahmed, a 4-star center, is deciding between Cincinnati, Miami, and Xavier tomorrow, and will livestream his announcement on 247 Sports.
Why is this important to the thread? Because there's at least one crystal ball prediction that he'll choose Miami, according to the Canes Insight message board, which means there's a fairly good chance that Trilly Donovan will post a Miami-oriented GIF Thursday morning. That has the potential to cause a great deal of confusion, as the Boozer twins are ALSO announcing Thursday, and they are likely deciding between Duke and Miami.
MY prediction is that Trilly Donovan is not bothered by letting Duke fans squirm, and will almost certainly post a Miami GIF first tomorrow, if that's where Ben Ahmed is committing. Ideally, he'll put up 3 GIFs tomorrow, and 2 of them are Duke-related. But he's under no obligation to be clear, so unless he posts 3 Miami GIFs, do yourselves a favor and try not to draw too many conclusions.
“I’m a playmaker and a shottaker,” Scott told On3 in a previous interview. “I like to get my teammates involved a lot, but when I get my own shot, I think I execute pretty well. I can play inside and out and have really deep range along with good post touches. Honestly, I watch a lot of Candace Parker, she is one of my favorite players. Her versatility with being tall and able to pass and shoot, I like watching her.”
We have our first Crystal Balls (CB) for the Boozer twins, Cameron and Cayden Boozer (each a CB). Colby Giacubueno, a Maryland Insider, has logged a CB for each of the two CBs to Duke. I'm not familiar with Giacubueno, but he's been accurate on 150 out of 158 CB selections. Seems like a good sign?Nothing. There haven't been any.
What?????? Overthinking on DBR? Say it ain't so, Joe.This. I would absolutely expect DMBB to post something related to a joint interview at media day that featured Jon Scheyer and Carlos Boozer. People are WAY overthinking this. It ain't got nuthin' to do with recruiting.
I'm curious to know what happened over the last couple of weeks. You shared that the twins were expecting to commit to Duke and then the timeline changed and then everything got quiet. Even if there is a surprise tomorrow, I'd like to know what led to the delay.I am not on Trilly Donovan's private Discord, but apparently he has made a pick for Duke over there.
There are also now 3 crystal balls for Duke, though all three of them have a confidence level of 6, which is not exactly super confidence.
Another item of note, at least one of the picks was accompanied by a crystal ball of Acaden Lewis to Kentucky.I am not on Trilly Donovan's private Discord, but apparently he has made a pick for Duke over there.
There are also now 3 crystal balls for Duke, two of the Duke guys (Chad Lykins and Adam Rowe) just made picks. That said, all three of them have a confidence level of 6, which is not exactly super confidence.
Pretty silly considering Acaden has not even taken his Kentucky visit yet (it happens this weekend).Another item of note, at least one of the picks was accompanied by a crystal ball of Acaden Lewis to Kentucky.
Great to hear, I just thought it noteworthy. Adam Rowe is often spot on when it comes to where things are trending with Duke recruits. Obviously it would be awesome to get both so I hope he’s wrong. Definitely seems reactive based on the context.Pretty silly considering Acaden has not even taken his Kentucky visit yet (it happens this weekend).
Acaden's dad told me they have no problem coming to Duke and playing alongside Cayden Boozer. It is not even a mild concern as far as they are concerned as Acaden's skill set easily allows him to play either guard position.
Like how this is trending at the moment !I am not on Trilly Donovan's private Discord, but apparently he has made a pick for Duke over there.

I think the only pic I have ever seen of Cameron Boozer smiling is when he's throwing up the U sign. That gives me pause.
Acaden's dad may have no concerns now, but that's because he is blissfully unaware that this Board can't even keep Proctor (Australian) and Foster (Australian for beer) straight. It's going to be an utter disaster to have Acaden and a Cayden.Acaden's dad told me they have no problem coming to Duke and playing alongside Cayden Boozer.
