They have 4 true FR from a class that isn't as talented as previous years in the top 3 other than Barrett. This is unlikely to be one of the best Duke teams of the past decade let alone one of the best teams of all time

Unless some of their players return from this year unexpectedly, they are going to go through a ton of growing pains and problems

I'd hardly call Duke's class less talented... Reddish and williamson are both lottery picks along with Barrett. I think williamson is a little overhyped but that group should be as good as what they had this year. If they aren't preseason #1 I'll be shocked.

I completely disagree about the top 3 in this next class. I'd argue that the 2nd and 3rd best players in this next class may be better than the 2nd and 3rd best players of this last class which was stacked. Past the top 3 is where it really drops off. Regardless, anytime a team brings in the top 3 players of any class, they're going to be a dominant team especially considering they have another top 10 player, and likely to sign the 12th best player in the class. I wouldn't say they'll be the most dominant team of all time, but they most certainly could be the most dominant team in recent memory.

If you have the #1 #2 and #3 player in your class and are still adding.... that's legendary
