Mom's/dad's and son's story are conflicting. Probably they should have all sat down together and get the story straight.

What can really be said about either kid? Carter played 30 minutes per game and ended up being the 7th player chosen in the draft.. Duval played 30 minutes per game and should have stayed another year, he’s better than Tre Jones imo.. promises not being kept as far as roster moves/over recruiting...lack of improved development as the season goes. My main broader point is if there's perceived chinks in duke's armor...schools will pounce to capitalize I don't see how an opposing staff can get traction against Duke by using 5* kids who played 30 minutes per game as examples of promises not being kept or over recruiting.. If the recent stories of Semi Ojeleye or Derryk Thornton or Chase Jeter or Marques Bolden haven't hurt Duke's recruiting, how can anyone think Carter's story will be impactful.. As I stated above Duval should have stayed another year or transferred..

Another Article on Carter, Coach K and Duke
I agree there are better examples of players who have legitimate gripes than Carter (including all of the ones EtomicB names plus more), but the fact the Carter’s family has now come out and said it makes it a story. Multiple recruiting focused writers have written about it and you can bet that recruits have seen the comments/stories. It probably won’t make much of a difference, but it’s a real story.
