The Blue Devils have been on a recruiting tear this offseason, and they show no sign of slowing down. Their latest target, four-star safety Eric Burrell, recently described his interest in Duke to Scout's Brian Dohn.

Burrell cited the high academic standards and the up-and-coming football program as reasons why he's drawn to Duke.

"It's a win-win for me," Burrell told Scout, referencing Duke's blend of athletics and academics. "I'm just trying to go up there for my next visit and see how I like it."

Burrell is also considering Virginia, Wisconsin and Rutgers among other schools.
