There is a sense of entiltlement that turns my stomach...This Dukie sitting behind me at that game(screaming in my ear that Boozer would have his way with us "all day long" ) just assumed IU was a buried team from the initial tip-off..He must have said "all day long" 300 times in the first half..Entitlement. Coach K nearly faints(I actually believe one instance he actually did..) at every questionable foul call...Entitlement. I really didn't mean to sound so harsh by ...I do think he lacks a good amount of maturity...Anyone that nearly proclaims to be the Second Coming on his YouTube highlights maybe needs a little guidance and maybe a good butt whoopin', too...Maybe a whoopin' from a guy that could exploit his major weakness- his lack of strength in going to the rack...Saying he lacks character was a cheap shot...Cheap because I hold a bad taste in my mouth from the little experience I've had around Duke fans...Very shallow thinking on my part....Cheap because I can't stand the color blue because it's shared by Kentucky...Cheap because I think the kid is making a decision for all the safe and right reasons instead of a challenging wrong one .Please forgive me Kylie for my cheap shot.......I'm sure. like your YouTube clip says, it is now time for the rest of the world to know who you are....I'm sure you have good character....plenty good enough for Duke.

From what i've read he seems to be a kid with tremendous character. Maybe you know something i dont but i dont think you can just say a kid lacks character because he didnt choose IU. I wish he would've chosen IU but just because he didnt means he's an awful person. Its hard to convince a top recruit to come to a team that had the awful season we just had. But once we start improving i think the big recruits will start coming as hard as crean recruits Just because he didnt choose IU doesnt mean he lacks character.

He has to pick a school that he feels is the best fit for him and his goals. If KI picked IU should Duke fans say it shows a lack of character by him? KI made what he thought was the best decision for him. He has sounded very knowledgeable and informed throughout the process and he made what he thought was the best and most informed decision for him. Eliminating IU does not turn him all of a sudden terrible guy. He was a class act during this whole process and I wish him the best. <br><br>In the recruiting process, IU will win some recruiting battles and lose some others. It is part of the game and what makes the college basketball off season so exciting. Frankly, I am thrilled that Crean and the coaching staff were involved with KI for so long in the process and that they seem to be making good inroads with great recruits from the state of Indiana and abroad. I am excited about seeing the team this season and to see the knew talent Crean can bring in. <br><br>Hoo-Hoo-Hoo-Hoosiers! How does it possibly show a lack of character by the kid?

Crean wasted far too much time on a kid with a miserable lack of character. Sorry, just got finished with my second brain surgery of the day…Otherwise, I would have been on this blog much sooner.

I think 90 posts laters shows that this is significant that Kyrie has decided his talents fit best elsewhere, the program will not be taking a step backward, but we are missing out on that opportunity to leap forward a bit quicker like we all want to. I agree Ben, not all hope is lost, the 2010 class is still open, CTC never stops recruiting, we will get better.
