Interesting tidbit: On JT3's show, Del and Steph Curry were on and they mentioned that Seth Curry was offered by a bunch of majors but Del mentioned that he was surprised the Gtown didn't offer despite a couple other Big East teams offering. thanks, Chi www.theworldlovepoem.com

i assume you meant JT2's show and not JT3's show?
i'm also kind of surprised if this was true considering our need for a shooter. I guess JT3 must not have thought we had a chance but still.

wouldn't have been a good fit.
and we didn't really need him.
we have "bigger" needs from a personnel standpoint.

yeah - big john's show. they're at the final four. Del said that Seth wanted to move to a higher conference and that when Duke called, they had to listen. Big John cleared his throat in a pronounced fashion and they all laughed and then Del said along the lines like: the hoyas never offered, i'm surprised ya'll didn't. a couple big east teams did, but not ya'll.

I listened to Big John Thompson's show this afternoon too. I think Seth would be a great spell to Chris Wright and could have been a valuable sub when we're getting full court pressed. Del Curry seemed a bit surprised and a little upset when he responded to JT2's question about which majors were looking at Seth...where were you JT3?...we were hoping you would call

We could use the shooters.
JTIII has shown a decided preference towards bigger guards -- he doesn't seem to recruit many guys listed under 6', maybe for defensive reasons? A bigger miss from this perspective may be Isiah Thomas, though I don't know how serious he was about us.

It wouldn't have mattered. He would have still gone to Duke.

Off to Duke.... wouldn't have thought he'd go anywhere in the BE anyway. He just made it easier to hate both brothers Curry.

In a related development, Seth qualified for early admission into Duke's flopping and floor slapping tutorials. If he does well in those it's off to Group hugs.
