seemed like a decent enough kid to me. And Id have taken him at unc in a heartbeat.

So would literally everyone on this board. I think it's hysterical when people here suddenly crap on a kid's game or personality when they either don't pick us or pick Duke.

Nobody's "crapping on" his game. However I have a strong feeling that personality would not have gone over well with our guys. Laugh all you want.

I know absolutely nothing about him or his game. I assume he is probably an ok guy because most people are. I assume he is a good player because everyone seems to think he is and Duke recruited him. I don't care though. Give me our guys and we'll play ball.
 
Said at 5 his dad had him dribble around this mile long track... had to stop at multiple spots & do 25 push ups & 25 sit ups.
At the end of his session he ran a mile & did 250 push ups & 250 sit ups...AT 5 YEARS OLD
Yeah.. really believable, right?
First of all, literally no 5 yr old could physically even do anything remotely resembling that... and second, if he was made to do anything resembling that it would be friggin' child-abuse. I can see eyes rolling if he tried to peddle that story to another player :rolleyes:.
 
I'm lost here. What has this kid ever did wrong?

To clarify, no one said he did anything wrong, or was a bad kid (as cb34 suggests he said), those are words being put in Gary's mouth by pot stirrers who have an agenda or don't like Gary. He simply said he didn't feel like he would mesh with our current group. I agree with heelbent, let's focus on hoops & quit antagonizing.
 
Why don't we talk about a 5* kid that we have a chance for? oh never mind.................

Lol. are you kidding me? he couldnt come up with something a little believable? thats hilarious.
 
oh my god WHO CARES?

Judging his personality or saying he wouldn't mesh well with our kids after a 3 minute TV appearance in which he was probably nervous as hell is just dumb.

Stop. He's a great player. Probably a good dude. He's going to Duke, was never coming here.

Thread closed.

Because I'm not going to trash a 17 year old kid?

That's the kind of community you want here?

Where is the trashing? am I missing something? No one here has called him anything bad. saying his story is ridiculous and not true, is not trashing.
 
He's been called a liar with a crap personality. I'd call that trashing.

Don't backtrack because you've been called out on the ridiculousness of judging a 17 year old based on a 3 min TV segment.

I swear, some people hate Duke more than they like UNC. Hey guys, guess what? Grant Hill, Elton Brand, and Shane Battier are all great players and seem like great guys. Want to ban me now?

This whole thread is just dumb and not what we should be discussing on opening day. Go Heels, or have we forgotten that part?

It really simple...if you don't agree with a thread then don't participate it. End of story.

If he wants to make his announcement on national tv, and tell a ridiculous story. He is open to criticism. These kids want to jump straight to the NBA at 17, 18, but they are too young to question? ok. No backtracking here. Their is no bashing. You are overreacting. calm down.

Spot-on
