Player E.J. Montgomery

[StopThePumpFakesShav]

Flukes also happen in this sport.

2015 is the fluke.

Getting blown out in the 2nd half of tournament games is the trend ('17, '16, Mercer, '13, Lehigh, '11, '09, '08)

We didn’t get blown out in 2013 anymore though.

National recruiting analyst Brian Snow picks Duke for Montgomery.

Now 90% on the Crystal Ball.

Jason Jordan asked E.J. if he could save either Calipari or Coach K from drowning, which would it be.

E.J. said Coach K.

What a weird question to ask a kid.

What a weird question to ask a kid.

Just watched the video and he actually said he'd save both Calipari and K over the other 9 coaches.

It was awkward, for sure.

 

[Slap the Floor]

It may be overkill, but I want Montgomery just based on the fact the UK and UNC really want him.

Jason Jordan did the same thing with Mo Bamba last year and Mo picked Shaka IRC

"EJ, Pantone287 here from Duke-forum.com. Kill, fuck, marry: Cal, Coach K, your dad?"

I don't get the appeal. Seems like a Marcus Lee/Chase Jeter hybrid.

I'll take it if he realizes that. He should be a 2-3yr big and that's perfect. Bolden and Jav should be able to handle the bulk of the minutes next year. He can play 10-15mpg off the bench and then start the next year with Jav.

 

[Slap the Floor]

He's better than Javin.

 

[CMon85]

Junior Jav will play more than EJ. I agree he will be better but probably not the first year. They'll both play 10-15min as reserve bigs imo.

 

[rome8180]

Yeah, it just depends on his mentality. I'm wary of guys who are highly ranked coming in with big expectations, especially if they are signing up to be part of a super-class.

I suspect EJ and Bolden are mutually exclusive, he'll only come if Bolden bolts.

Idk. I don't think it matters that much. Kentucky (who I view as our main threat) will have at least Richards and Gabriel, IMO.

BTW, E.J. received another CB to Duke tonight from an Ohio State writer. Who the Hell knows what that means.

But he's up to 91% Duke.

Apparently the recruitment is changing now without Capel. Not sure if we are passing on him or if we just have to establish a better relationship with him now that Capel is gone.

I saw Watson say he thinks he doesn't end up here in the end.

Take that for what it's worth, which is nothing. lol.

 

[LastHearth]

Probably means Bolden is staying.

 

[rhfarmer]

I'm ok with with keeping Bolden if it means EJ goes elsewhere.
