While the Duke football program and head coach Manny Diaz are currently dealing with a lot of transfer portal chaos amid the departures of star quarterback Darian Mensah and star wide receiver Cooper Barkate, that hasn\u2019t stopped the Blue Devils from staying active on the high school recruiting trail.<\/p>\n
Over the past few days, Diaz and his staff have extended offers to several talented 2027 prospects, including a four-star wide receiver from California, who would be a much-needed addition to Duke\u2019s class.<\/p>\n On Jan. 15, Duke extended an offer to Blake Wong, a four-star wide receiver from Norco High School in Norco, California. He shared on X<\/a> that his offer from the Blue Devils came following a conversation with tight ends coach Max Norton.\u00a0<\/p>\n Blessed! Had a great conversation with @CoachMaxNorton<\/a> this morning and was offered by @DukeFOOTBALL<\/a> \ud83d\ude08.

Simmons added that the Blue Devils and Buckeyes are two other schools to watch in Wong\u2019s recruitment, highlighting his interest in Duke\u2019s academics.<\/p>\n Wong would be an excellent addition to the Blue Devils’ 2027 class. Rivals\u2019 industry rankings<\/a> list him as the No. 352 overall player nationally, the No. 47 wide receiver, and the No. 33 prospect from California.\u00a0<\/p>\n As of right now, Wong\u2019s recruitment is wide open, and there\u2019s no timeline for his decision. If Diaz and the Blue Devils can bring him to campus in Durham at some point this offseason for a visit, they should be able to improve their standing in his recruitment.\u00a0<\/p>\n Wide receiver is a position the Blue Devils need to target<\/a> in the 2027 cycle, and landing Wong would be an excellent start for Diaz and company. <\/p>\n As always, make sure you stay up to date with all Duke content by following us on Facebook, by clicking\u00a0<\/em>HERE<\/em><\/u><\/a>, and following us on X (formerly Twitter)\u00a0<\/em>HERE<\/em><\/u><\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\nBlue Devils Offer Talented 2027 Wideout<\/h2>\n
