I know this is non-GT, and it is the beginning of football season so most are not interested right now, but it is ACC and worthy of mention because it is Duke's second consecutive #1 class in the country by new HC Jon Scheyer. Many wondered if Scheyer could continue the recruiting pipeline Coach K had built. The commitment of TJ Power last night just solidified Duke in the top spot for this class. Not to worry though, other than UNC, no one else is recruiting anywhere near this level right now. Same two blue's. :)

I would expect this to be a 'one and done' play from both classes unless they come up with huge NIL dollars. As we have seen with Kentucky, all of this young talent does not always equate to instant success. It will be interesting to watch. Duke lost 5 players to the NBA Draft last year and only return two players with experience...Class of 2020 5-star guard Jeremy Roach and Illinois transfer SG/W Jacob Grandison.
