Mark Williams Signs on for Sophomore Season

With a single tweet from 7’0 center and rising sophomore Duke fans all over breathed a sigh of relief. You would think Duke fans would be used to watching players come and go with just a short stay in Durham with the amount of uber talented one-and-done players who have come and gone but when Duke began to lose players from a class that was expected to be the building blocks of at least a couple of years to come fans began to worry…incessantly worry. First Jalen Johnson opted out of the season before it came to an end and I’m not sure too many were surprised – Johnson had been a mercurial figure since high school and with him also nursing an injury, it didn’t feel unexpected.
