The college basketball world was whipped into a frenzy on Thursday afternoon when five-star center Marques Bolden (DeSoto High School, DeSoto, TX) announced his commitment to play for head coach Mike Krzyzewski and the Duke Blue Devils next season.

Bolden now gives Duke four five-star recruits in its six-man 2016 class, according to Scout.com.

While it’s no doubt Krzyzewski will have plenty of talent to work with next season, many analysts have already been quick to proclaim the Blue Devils as favorites for next season’s national championship.

C.B. McGrath was not one of those people.

An assistant on head coach Roy Williams’ staff for 17 years–including the last 13 at UNC–McGrath took to Twitter to make his feelings on the situation loud and clear.

And while yes, Duke hasn’t won a regular season ACC championship since 2010, the Blue Devils did win national championships in 2010 and in 2015–which is two more than UNC has won during the same time period.

The 2015 Duke team won the title on the strength of another similarly skilled recruiting class–a group led by the likes of Jahlil Okafor, Tyus Jones, and Justise Winslow.

Next year’s Blue Devils will have a similar makeup, in terms of raw talent.

First off, two of the nation’s top five high-school players, 6-foot-10 forward Harry Giles (Oak Hill Academy, Mouth of Wilson, VA) and 6-foot-8 wing Jayson Tatum (Chaminade College Prep, St. Louis, MO), will each spend a year in Durham.

Point guard Derryck Thornton announced his decision to transfer last month after just one year at Duke, but he’ll be replaced by another five-star player in the explosive Frank Jackson (Lone Peak HS, Highland UT).

Krzyzewski also brings back a few major contributors from past seasons.

Junior Matt Jones, a 6-foot-5 wing player, is a solid defender and three-point shooter who has made 53 career starts.

Senior forward Amile Jefferson, who was granted a medical redshirt after breaking his foot a year ago, provides the young squad with some much-needed experience.

And then there’s Grayson Allen–a First Team All-ACC pick last who also tripped a couple people last season. He too, decided to skip the NBA Draft process and return to school.

Any objective observer of basketball would agree that the Blue Devils will be oozing with talent next season, regardless of whether they win a single game.

The 40-year-old McGrath, however, sat on his original thought for just over 15 minutes–before returning to Twitter for more thoughts on the ACC regular season championship disparity between UNC and Duke.

While his intentions were certainly pure–he’s standing up for a university and coach he loves dearly–it can be construed as a bit petty.

After all, the Tar Heels are expected to be pretty darn good themselves.

Every non-senior from last season’s Final Four squad is coming back. Three new recruits–Tony Bradley, Brandon Robinson, and Seventh Woods–will also make their way to Chapel Hill.

But hey, this is the type of stuff that makes the Duke-UNC rivalry so great isn’t it?
