Duke basketball could soon monopolize college hoops

All the attention should soon pay off for the Duke basketball coaches and fans alike. See, Economics 101 says every five-star should soon have eyes for the school that gives the best chance to maximize moolah from their name, image, and likeness (NIL). So once the NCAA lets student-athletes cash in — likely to happen before the 2021-22 academic year — then the cream of the crop will need to look no further than Durham.

Viewing this future of college hoops recruiting as a game of Monopoly, Mike Krzyzewski and his entourage would own Boardwalk and Park Place while all others fight over Marvin Gardens and whatever other scraps the Dukies don't want.
