In response to Dr. V
Man, you guys are a bunch of cranky old men. How can you not be happy for the kid? IMO, he played it just right. He parlayed his basketball skills into an Ivy League education. Then he did it again, this time for a graduate degree from Duke. And that's only the academic aspect.
He was able to star for Columbia, and now he'll be part of a top 5 program in the nation and get to play for one of the top coaches in NCAA history. And he gets to go to The Dance. He might even win a National Championship.
And as a 5th year senior, he'll be older, stronger, smarter and craftier than most those one-and-doners. I would be very surprised if he didn't play major minutes, and I would not be surprised if he started for Duke.
Well done, Mr. Tape!
