Duke Commit May Have Figured out How to Leave High School Early
Tonight HighSchoolHoop.com was the first high school basketball site to break the news that shooting guard Andre Dawkins, a Class of 2010 Duke recruit from Virginia, may have come up with a way to get to campus a full year early.
If he can pull it off, it would be huge for the Blue Devils – Coach K is returning just two scholarship guards (Nolan Smith and Jon Scheyer) after losing Gerald Henderson to the L and Elliott Williams to transfer.

He’s not even done early… He transferred schools and “reclassified” himself as a ninth grader for a second time. So he’s probably already been through 4 years of high school and is probably going to be 18.
He should do whatever he feels is best for himself.

The guy is 18 and really should have been a senior anyway. There is nothing wrong with what he is doing. He has enough credits to graduate and is graduating with honors from what I read earlier. Smart kid and from this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=apGxY1N6×0c
I would say this kid is going to be a beast right away. looks like a man among boys in his highlights. Has great range and can fly.

If I had the credits to leave early when I was in high school to play basketball at the college level for a premiere program, I sure as heck would do it.

I had enough credits in HS to get out early. I did it just to sleep in. Hell yeah that kid should forgo his Sr. year.
