    That they get paid almost as much in the NBA as they do while at Dook?

    Hurray, as if the constant stream of sweet 16 exits wasn't a sign, Dook has officially morphed into late Dean Smith era Heels. Here's hoping K has one last championship in him.


    edit: There is no way that GT NBA Alums make $48 million

    Marbury, Bosh, young and west are the only four GT players I know that are currently in the NBA.

    There is Javaris Crittendon also, off the top of my head.

    My point was they aren't alums as they haven't graduated, but I'm sure duke has some of those as well.

    GT has 9 current NBA players according to that list though.

    No kidding. I can just see Sly spending 5 hours figuring out all of this. I wonder if he included McRoberts from the D league in his math
