What happened to Clemson and Duke?

Duke was never, ever mentioned by anybody. Clemson was a real possibility, but I think once Richie Riley, a former South Laurel star, who was an assistant at Clemson, got the head coaching job at Nichols St., that may have cooled some. I think Eastern is perfect, not an overreach. Another pretty darn good Laurel Co. player, Ty Proffitt, who led South to a state championship, first went to Notre Dame, then came back to Morehead and had a really good career, a three-year starter, including starting on the team that beat Louisville in the NCAA tournament. No reason Peyton can't have a similar type career at EKU.
