Duke Recruiting: Will The Knueppel Connection Continue?

The next Knueppel is coming on fast.

When the Brotherhood Podcast started back up this fall with Caleb Foster as the new host, he interviewed his teammates and asked them all some basic questions. One of them was who has most impressed you in early practice?

Nearly everyone said Kon Knueppel, and he soon proved why.

As we all learned at some point, Knueppel comes from a serious basketball family and his younger brothers all show promise as well. We were joking this spring when we said “four more kids! Four more kids!”

Well the second Knueppel is rising and Duke has checked him out.

Kager is a 6-8 member of the class of 27 and it’s not just Duke: Arkansas is looking at him too and Toledo has already offered.

But we’d like to see a klutch of Knueppels hit Durham. It wouldn’t bother us if they challenged the Plumlee family record of three brothers at Duke.
