http://espn.go.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/15176468/freshman-pg-derryck-thornton-transferring-duke-blue-devilsDuke freshman Derryck Thornton is transferring, the school announced Sunday.
Thornton, a five-star prospect coming out of high school, started 20 games in his lone season at Duke. He averaged 7.1 points and 2.6 assists, but he saw his minutes fluctuate during most of ACC play despite being the only pure point guard on the roster.
I'm sure it has nothing to do with being talked into reclassifying to come a year early, being recruited over and then having the coach want to use your scholarship for another recruit. Nothing at all.Yeah that's the sense I get as well. Those never tend to end well, I remember how the Kris Humphries thing fell apart before he even came due to similar issues. Happy to not end up with a one-year Kardashian.
That's called college sports. A coach's job is to recruit better players than you. Your job is to make it so he still plays you over them.I'm sure it has nothing to do with being talked into reclassifying to come a year early, being recruited over and then having the coach want to use your scholarship for another recruit. Nothing at all.
A bunch of schools were trying to get him to reclassify - including L'ville. "Being recruited over" what does that mean?I'm sure it has nothing to do with being talked into reclassifying to come a year early, being recruited over and then having the coach want to use your scholarship for another recruit. Nothing at all.
Because Thornton was technically still supposed to be in high school, does this make him a pedo?Supposedly Coach K touched his (Thornton) penis and that's what led to the departure.
Dahntay Jones and who else?It really is no surprise that the team with two Duke players beat the team with two UNC players in the NBA finals.
Just another day at the office.
I really need to do a better job of delivering my jokes...That Irving fellow.
UNC Theo Pinson fractured 5th metatarsal. Tough injury for UNC as they need a few of their guys to step up with Paige and Johnson gone. UNC typically not a great defensive team and he's their best
