The Duke Staff didn't try to impose any additional restrictions on Gbinije. From a 2012 article:
The only restriction on Gbinije’s transfer came from the ACC. According to ACC rules, any athlete transferring within the conference must sit out one year and loses a year of eligibility.
Interestingly, Duke did not extend the ACC’s rule to apply to Syracuse or Pittsburgh even though both schools are set to join the ACC, possibly as soon as the 2013-14 season. Gbinije, who will sit out the 2012-13 season and then have three years of eligibility remaining, could wind up playing three years in the ACC for Syracuse.
“You’ve got to be impressed with what Coach K did,” Jeff Goodman, a college basketball columnist for CBSSports.com, said. “He did the right thing.”
