Has anybody heard anything with regards to Hood? I live down in the Tobacco Road area, and there hasn't been a thing coming through the grapevine like there usually is. I've heard that Monday afternoon at the latest, but nothing concrete.

Does anyone have any insight? I would guess that more time would seem to turn the tide towards the Bucks right?

I know that Hood isn't a guy they'd use until next season, but would love to see him playing alongside Ross...

RT @AdamZagoria: Rodney Hood is 'torn' between Duke & Ohio State, source tells @SNYtv

Don't know how to properly link it but Alex, from Eleven Warriors, retweeted this from earlier today. I know insiders from both OSU and Duke have, at one point or another, been confident that he would pick their respective school, so who knows. Hopefully his friendship with Laquinton Ross will push us over the top.

Yeah...funny...I woke up this morning and saw the tweet. He's coming to Duke, and will be another "product" of a system that does extremely well in college, but doesn't develop NBA players. Kyrie Irving is a case in point...missed most of the season, and didn't get turned into Bobby Hurley. Coach K is an incredible coach, and really gets those guys buying into a system there...

but if Hood wants the dream of the NBA, he made the wrong choice. Of course, no bias here eh?

I love me some Matta but that last quote is wack. I don't want to list everything that happened to first rounders for Matta but his 'NBA star' list is Conley and West. While he has a longer time in his spot Coach K can point to a much larger NBA star list.

Matta is just getting started though... he'll catch up :biggrin:
