From KSR:
quote:
The No. 1 player in the class of 2018 has reclassified to 2017 and will play for Duke. Marvin Bagley III chose Duke over UCLA, USC, and Kentucky, among other schools. The Wildcats always seemed to be on the outside looking in with Bagley, and all confidence in reeling in the star forward faded when rumors spread of his reclassification. Calipari would have loved to have him, but with so many forwards on the 2017 roster, it just wasn’t realistic to think he would end up in Lexington. quote:
ESPN are practically conceding the upcoming national championship to Duke as the result of this commitment.

They may be the favorite but strange things seem to happen on the way to the crowning

Wasn't Duke the favorite last year? They lost like 10 games and knocked out in the 2nd round if I remember correctly.

they should be the favorite as they have some key returners as well as some new studs. They should be very, very good. I hope they fall under the pressure though. Hope the Cats fly under the radar until we hit tournament time, and then we are at our very best. Let duke get all the hype they want in my opinion.
