According to him, there are Simmons and Ingram and nobody else comes close. I will give him Simmons, but Murray and Ingram are definitely similarly gifted freshmen.
Murray getting no love from Vitale
- Thread starter SilentsAreGolden
- Start date
I heard him and immediately thought.....Murray?
Im glad Chrome Dome wont be doing the KU gm.

Dipsy doo and dunkaroo, Coach K is a Marconi Man, the dookies have some diaper dandies, jim jam gigolo baby.
He also said that Grayson Allen was a top 5 player in the nation. If Duke has one of the top 2 freshman and a top 5 player how did they lose 3 in a row and 2 at home to unranked teams?
Ingram is one of the top freshman players, but to leave out Murray leaves me smh.

He slobbered all over Murray on Saturday. Ingram will go 2nd in this years draft. I love Murray and he will be a lottery pick as well.
His head is stuck so far up Dukes ass he cant see anything else ..... But THEY ARE GOING TO BE DANGEROUS WHEN AMILE GETS BACK ... according to Dick Head ... and he just got done how dangerous a Duke run can be
Ingram and Simmons are definitely much better pro prospects. Going by stats up to this point I think you definitely have to take Ingram at this point.
I got lei'd when I got off the plane in Hawaii after being at a dead show last night.....the Pac 12 is the conference of Champions, do they play basketball east of the rockies?

Brad Nessler: And Samaki Walker enters the game. Walton: So THIS is what it's come to
Mick Jagger is in better shape than far too many NBA players. It's up in the air whether the same can be said of Keith Richards.

No one is denying how good Simmons and Ingram are and their pro potential but Murray should be included in that conversation. Pro scouts love him and I'd argue he's more physically ready to contribute next year in the NBA than Ingram. NBA SG's or SF's will have their way with him until he gets stronger and heavier.
I'm not sure what has happened but it seems like Vitale has kind of soured on Cal & UK over the last year. He was all up our rear up until last year at some point.
He said he's been following Duke 30 some odd years and said one thing is for sure, Duke always plays hard and will not quit. No shit, every team plays hard and doesn't quit......
Not really. Duke and us have both laid down a few times this year. That's what happens when you replace a large exodus of NBA talent with frosh. They have to learn how to compete. We're getting better at it but Duke is struggling no matter what Vitalis says.
ingram has a 7'3 wingspan and shoots the ball better than murray, and imo he's a better athlete with a better feel for the game
murray is a smallish, under-athletic 2 in the nba
vitale used to passive-aggressively (for him anyway) ridicule the notion that towns was the best prospect last year and he is a terrible and disgusting person, but he's correct on this

Hoskins how can you say going by stats you have to take ingram? Murray edges him in pts and assists and ingram has him in rebs.
![[laughing]](http://l.yimg.com/j/assets/img/emoticons/classic/laugh.r191677.gif "Laughing [laughing]")
ingram shoots 6.5 % pts higher from the field, 4 % pts higher from 3, has a better a/to ratio as a 6'9 wing than murray, who was supposed to have pg skills; has more steals and 8x as many blocks
but murray scores .7 pts more per game (in two more minutes) and has more assists so the stats favor him

How often does Ingram have the ball in pick an roll at the end of the shot clock. More of his shots come off someone else's work, therefore higher %.
Murray will be a PG in the NBA, and a damn good one.
Ingram should be the #2 pick in the draft. He just has such rare length to go with his skill set.
