    I am in the bizarro world. Did you just tell someone else to calm down and take a Xanax? I have been mostly gone for two days and it got weird in here. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Neither of you have an ounce of objectivity. We have a 5 star McDAA signed up for next year. Guess what Brooks is not? Both of you, jump off the proverbial cliff or stop posting the same garbage. There are many here with intelligent thoughts on either side of the coin improving discussion on the board. Neither of you are one of those people. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    By Keion’s words... he’s going where he’s needed. Not where he’s wanted. I don’t think UK or MSU has a better case of needing him more than us. Let’s just let this thing play through. Not counting us out yet. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    IU at Minnesota 2/16/19 2pm ESPN2

    Painter went after higher risk/reward kids for a while a few years ago and it went badly for him from a culture standpoint. If I recall correctly, he apologized to the fan base and went back to what worked for him. I understand that IU is not Purdue, but maybe CAM should recruit kids who fit his philosophy regardless of ranking or location. I'm not sold that players with one foot out the door before they arrive on campus are good for the long term culture of the program. We need talent but not at the expense of the goals of the team.

    Nah, maybe once you’re done posting your routine garbage. It’s truly obnoxious. I think the mods try really hard to be extremely fair to all, but I’d ban you. Don’t know why you’re here to post non-stop misery. Why be so miserable? Stop watching. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    Say what you want, but terms like "kiss of death", etc tied to this recruitment are ridiculous. I agree, not landing Brooks is not good. But sheesh. If you need to gauge where you are right now, the two current supporters of your comment have proven themselves time and again the doomsday preppers of college basketball fandom. That's what's happening in this thread. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app

    A very high level friend of a friend of another friend has told me that IU is going to eliminate/close the Kelley School of Business if Archie does not land Brooks. This recruitment has implications most people do not appreciate.

    I thought this originally, but after looking into it more I disagree. Romeo's buddy Quentin Grimes is averaging 7.7 ppg on 7.3 shots per game at Kansas. He was the #8 recruit last year. Nassir Little, the #3 recruit last year, is averaging 9.6 ppg on 7.1 shots at North Carolina. He hasn't started a single game this year and is only averaging 18.5 mpg. Romeo has had some underwhelming games, but he hasn't been nearly as underwhelming as those other guys. The shots would be there for Keion next year if he wants them.

    #IUBASE - 3 game series @ Memphis

    I saw what i needed to see this weekend. We took the series and flat out ran Memphis out of their own stadium in 2 of the 3 games. Something I saw today that was really encouraging was in the 6th when we led 1-0 and had bases loaded one out. To often with old regime we would swing for fences and blow the inning but today Kaletha just went for clean contact for a 2 run single through shortstop to make it 3-0 that broke Memphis’ sole and we tacked on from there for easy win. Overall i like the new smaller ball aproach (although Gorski led off game with moonshot to left). Long way to go but good opening weekend.

    I believe I remember this account saying Romeo to Vandy or Kansas was a lock.

    Hopefully he wants em too. At first I was blaming Archie for not getting Romeo more involved but come on. You’re a top 5 recruit and a potential top ten pick, your team’s down 20 with the season pretty much on the line, and they’re struggling to score, you to have to demand the f****** ball. Someone’s gotta step up and be like this isn’t how we’re going down but that’s just absent which sucks. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    Random Archie/Basketball Talk

    Yes, I agree it’s long overdue. I’m guessing it should have taken place after the Nebraska home loss. In all fairness, hard to say what’s been going on at practice. We can only judge by the product on the floor during games. If Archie only has 4 players left that buy in, I would play with 4. Of course, easy for me to say on a IUB forum.

    Romeo watched us lose to Rutgers, Indiana State, and IPFW right? He and TJD visited other schools after IU right? Even though this season has been a massive disappointment, Archie and Co. have given us no reason to worry when it comes to recruiting. Gotta trust the process Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners

    If Romeo keeps having games where he's only getting 5 shots up, it'll be pretty easy to negatively recruit against this coaching staff for 5 stars. That's what I worry about for future recruits, not just Keion Brooks.

    (2019) SF Keion Brooks Jr. to Kentucky

    Well what Rabby said was that Brooks has communicated with the coaches at IU today. He said that UK made a good impression but Brooks doesn't want to make a decision right after a game like that. It's still UK, MSU, and IU. Brooks hopes to have a decision by the end of the month but it's not set in stone. UK did make up a lot of ground though but that's not surprising since Cal is a salesman.
