Zagsblog is reporting that Kyrie Irving, one of the top guard prospects for 2010, has eliminated Indiana, the school that at one time appeared to be the favorite.
Excerpt:
“Indiana is out,” said Sye Dean, Irving’s uncle. “We respect the program. We respect Tom Crean. We feel blessed that a University of that caliber would recruit Kyrie, but sometimes in regards to this recruiting process you have to eliminate certain programs. That’s part of the process.”
The Fayettville Observer reported that some close to the Duke program believe Irving will commit to the Blue Devils later this month. He is scheduled to visit Duke, Texas A&M, Kentucky (Oct. 15) and Georgia Tech. Rivals rates Irving as the ninth best overall prospect in the Class of 2010.
Meanwhile, Scout’s Evan Daniels reports that Chane Behanan, a 6-6 forward out of Ohio, will visit UK this weekend.
Here’s video of Behanan:
This is a tough one for Indiana since they recruited him hard the earliest (other than SHU) but it’s part of the game.
He’s Duke’s to lose.
