The #4 player overall in the Rivals Top 150 Brandon Ingram says no to the thought to be favorite North Carolina Tar Heels and heads to the rival Duke Blue Devils. The 6-8 190lb WF also had feelers from Kentucky who was thought to be the pick if Ingram had not chosen UNC.

Looking at the situation closer as the Bluedude has been watching this kid for quite sometime he comes from the Kinston, N.C. HS Vikings. Ingram led Kinston to four straight H.S. Championships. It is also home of one Jerry Stackhouse and Reggie Bullock that's what makes the Duke choice even more mind-bottling

Ingram game is smooth as he reminds me of former UConn Star and longtime NBA Players Donyell Marshall from Reading, PA. Long and athletic with a nice wing game off the bounce with a smooth handle, can shoot it from deep, get to the rim with that wire frame of his, and has a nice face-up and back to the basket post game. His build is similar to 2015 projected NBA Lottery Pick in Combo Guard DeAngelo Russell from Ohio State University.

Taking a sneak peek at the 2015 Duke Blue Devils Recruiting Class that was a week or so ago in the top 15 and now is #1 overall:

#KRZYZEWSKIVILLE 2015 Recruiting Class


#4 Brandon Ingram WF 6-8 Kinston, N.C.
#14 Derryck Thornton PG 6-1 Henderson, NV
#16 Chase Jeter PF/C 6-10 Las Vegas, NV
#25 Luke Kennard SG 6-5 Franklin, OH

All the Rankings from the Rival Top 150...

Duke loses their top 4 players as three of those players Jahlil Okafor, Justise Winslow, and Tyus Jones all will be 1st round picks in the 2015 NBA Draft. Quinn Cook maybe a 2nd rounder was the lone senior on the team...

Duke's top 3 Players back are SG/SF Matt Jones,  SG Grayson Allen and PF Amile Jefferson as the above four will join those three...
