Williams to Duke?
That's what Dave Telep the national recruiting analyst for Scout.com is reporting. Elliot Williams, a smooth shooting guard out of Memphis who is supposed to make an official announcement tomorrow, will be the big catch in its recruiting Class of 2008. It also provides reassurance to some Duke fans who were wondering if Mike Krzyzewski had jumped the shark in recruiting after losing out on Patrick Patterson last spring and failing to even land a visit from Greg Monroe, the top power forward in the 2008 class who recently committed to Georgetown.
Getting Williams still doesn't solve Duke's issues in the paint, but it does give them yet another athletic, versatile player on the wing. Some feel he's the most explosive guard the Blue Devils have landed since Jason Williams.
