“Well look. Of the three groups, who is most likely to freak out if they lose out? A&M? Seems unlikely. A program like that is flattered to be in the hunt for a kid like Irving. Getting him is a long shot. Duke? We certainly hope not. By now most Duke fans should understand that acting like that is a losing proposition. Kentucky fans? That’s a different kettle of fish.
If Irving does as widely predicted, as he’s already suggested, he’s going to hear from some people and we’re guessing most of them are Kentucky fans.
If he chooses Kentucky or A&M, we hope Duke fans will just congratulate him and move on. And if he chooses Duke, let other people define themselves.”
