Duke basketball recruiting bus must remain in garage awhile

No in-home visits. No hosting visits. No scouting opportunities. Nothing more than calls and texts until who knows when. Yes, the National Association of Basketball Coaches essentially announced on Tuesday that the Duke basketball coaches and all their NCAA counterparts will not have access to the recruiting trail for at least another couple of months because of current world conditions:

"In light of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, the NABC, WBCA, and NCAA have together initiated a review of potential alternative recruiting opportunities for prospective student-athletes from the class of 2021 and beyond. Additionally, the NABC Board of Directors and WBCA Executive Committee have recommended to the NCAA Division I Council Coordination Committee an extension of the current recruiting dead period through July 31, 2020.
