Yeah, the NCAA wins have been so much better. Jabari and Frank both out of the tourney in the first weekend.

It's all about the NBA for Mr. Jackson....Coach K can get him there much easier

The NBA finds talent no matter where it is. Dumb reason to go to Duke.

I think if you have NBA talent you'll get there no matter where you go. It has been proven countless times.

There is a BIG difference between developing talent and just showing off talent. I agree that the NBA (and NFL, etc.)

As if Jimmer had NBA talent when he came to BYU? Yet he became a top 10 pick. Steph Curry was the same way at Davidson.

Very true arguments, but think if Jimmer had Coach K teach him some Defense

I love Jimmer, but his lack of defense is squarely on him at this point. He had 4 full seasons in the NBA to learn it.

Not when you control for recruiting ranking

Forget basketball, a Duke degree vs. a BYU degree.

Not for certain degrees. But yes, in general, I believe that's the case.

Purely out of curiosity, can you name any degree or field in which BYU would be considered more prestigious than Duke?

Accounting.

Duke doesn't offer an accounting degree (undergrad)

It's still true to the point. If you want to study those things, BYU is better.
