We recently put out a column in which we detailed high-school prospects who held Syracuse basketball offers in recent years but ultimately chose Duke and its legendary head coach, Mike Krzyzewski.
This seems a somewhat relevant and fun topic since Krzyzewski is retiring after the 2021-22 campaign. We’re going to do the opposite in this piece, and highlight some guys who had offers from the Blue Devils but decided to wear Orange.
Understandably, given Duke’s prowess on the recruiting trail, this list is much shorter.
