When Kyle Filipowski announced he was returning to Duke, it obviously changed things for Mackenzie Mgbako, who decommitted on the same day.
That set off a late recruiting war and by Thursday, he was down to two schools, Kansas and Indiana, and promised to announce on Friday.
And on Friday, Mgbako said it would be Indiana.
He’s a talented player and it’s too bad that he won’t be in Duke Blue. But Indiana is a great program too and we’re sure he’ll do very well there too.
And while we’re thinking about it, since today’s YouTube Gold is the classic 1984 Sweet Sixteen win over UNC, this is a good time to mention this, and it’s certainly not a knock on Mgbako.
