Florida freshman Gak ruled eligible, could play in opener
The NCAA ruled the 6-foot-11 Gak ineligible in the summer due to questions about the number of games he played at Victory Rock Prep in Bradenton after arriving from Australia. The NCAA said Gak could enroll at Florida for his freshman year and practice with the team, but he would not be eligible to compete until his sophomore season and would have three years of eligibility.

Podcast: Previewing the Champions Classic highlighted by Duke-Kansas
Is Markelle Fultz about to be Ben Simmons 2.0?

It looks possible after Washington opened with a 98-90 home loss to Yale despite Fultz, the projected No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, finishing with 30 points, seven rebounds and six assists. It's a bad look for the Huskies.

As soon as UA gets their next commit they'll move past UCLA again and Duke and UK will both wind up ahead of UCLA but maybe not UA. Really depends on Ayton if he really attends college UA could end up #1 overall

The ultimate Duke apologist.

The ultimate Duke apologist.

I somewhat agree with him though. I was watching part of that game and considering who Duke did NOT have, I was amazed the game was that close. Kansas has some inexperience upfront and obviously Josh Jackson is a freshman but given their backcourt and how much Duke was missing it surprised me the game came down to a late shot like that.

I don't think Kansas is particularly overrated so I guess that means Duke is really good if they can play them that tightly without so many key guys.
