Im not sure if anyone has seen this, but on Duke's boards they are talking like Harrison is pretty close to commiting now...

Damn, he plays football now too. He's good

Harrison plays football?

on a serious note...I expect him to go to either Duke or NC...and I wish him the best.

I don't think that's Harrison Barnes. I just saw him a week ago. And he still had long hair. I don't know if he cut it maybe.

If he goes to Duke, great for him. I'll root for him.

crap... i started it in the wrong forum... my bad, im new here

To me, Ejim is just as good of an option.

 

[Bader]

As long as he doesn't go to KU I won't be too upset

However, those guys know nothing more than we do. And that UNC fan seems a little.....slow

 

[ISU4ME]

Be prepared for Barnes to attend Duke and not ISU. The committment should come soon rather than later which will help us in our recruiting.

Which is fine, I would rather he get it over with so we can sign Ejim.

I hope that's not true but I think a lot of people assumed that we had to take a nice step forward this year to have a chance at HB. I hope he at least waits a few more weeks to see if we can finish the season a little stronger and also maybe Brackins will commit to coming back next year, which I think could help get HB, knowing there is a chance for real improvement next year.

However, I never could understand why these 5 star kids go to Duke to be just another face rather than going to a school where they will be a legend.

I won't. Just because it's Duke, but all the best to HB where ever ends up.

Be prepared to give it time...because nobody has a clue. Standard practice is to inform all other coaches that the answer is no before it is announced. And don't count ISU out yet...

I like the post where the guy is making fun of another poster and then says some people shouldn't "bread". Classic.

Yup Kyle Singler, JJ Reddick, Grant Hill, Christian Laettner nobody remembers that they were/are great players for Duke, just another face in the crowd....

Edit: Barnes has the opportunity to be a star wherever he chooses to go.

And further, be a star at Duke = Immortalized

Be a star at Iowa State = Loved by a truly loyal fanbase but you won't get near the national attention as if he went elsewhere

How many times is Duke on national tv everyyear? Duke is a top 10 team every year. You get to learn under one of the best college coaches ever. You have a better chance of going pro. You get to play with other people of your own talent level which makes it eaiser to play....i see why

I call complete bs. He wont committ anywhere for at least a month or two. Just because he went to a game doesnt mean its a done deal. I talked to a couple of my friends today on his team and no one is putting too much stock into it yet. Yes he likes Duke but he is no where close to a committ
