Duke Basketball Recruiting: Joe Girard Cuts His List

New York’s all-time scoring leader has cut his list to six schools: Joe Girard is down to Duke, Syracuse, Boston College, Notre Dame, Michigan and Penn State.

We tend to see Penn State as the outlier here but who knows. We could certainly see an appeal to almost every school on his list. Syracuse is the closest big time school, Notre Dame and Michigan features system that could highlight a talented shooter, Penn State and BC are building solid programs and of course Duke, with Coach K, Cameron and oozing tradition, is Duke.
