twice.. how much have you watched Watford? Watford is much like his brother defensively, tad slow footed. Offensively, Watford is obviously a better shooter, I don't think that makes him a 3 and Brooks a 4 though. 

Edit: Watford will struggle to guard the 3 in college. That's my only point. He is more skilled offensively then Brooks. 

I get what your saying. I've watched Watford 2 times and Brooks 4. Truthfully they are both combo forwards imo because neither one is a perfect 5 star wing if I'm being honest I just worry about Brooks and the way he moves he just always looks awkward and that really bothers me.

Just the guy I was wanting to hear from.... not anything definite but it is certainly a positive sign.

Yeah, not claiming it to be a done deal. This has been a tough recruitment to follow. But serious people are confident and that is the change. 

Fwiw, another member PM'd me after I posted saying they heard the same on Friday. I wouldn't post if I wasn't confident with what I'm hearing. Not trying to lead anyone on but that's where I'm at.

With all due respect, you were sending positive signals about Wilkes to IU when he had decided on UCLA weeks in advance.

Yup, I was wrong on Wilkes. Never shied away from that...

[Hoosier Guy 7,472]

We appreciate the info Pap. I’m extremely confident that Romeo is at IU. And that he’s the domino to get it started

[Hoosier Guy 7,472]

Of course, you guys already know my stance

Glad you’re confident Hoosier Guy.

I am when there’s merit to be confident

SIAP, but Ryan Taylor committed to Northwestern. Maybe Archie told him he didn't expect to have an open scholarship?

He also got word he was wrong before the announcement

So for a new guy like me, what types of info have you brought to the board in the past? I'm not calling you out, just curious

I had this one (Wilkes) pegged quite early. The Romeo optimism swell is in full bloom and how can you not be swept up? However, I still remain far more cautious than most that he will be a Hoosier.

The Taylor news to Northwestern appears to be a biggest indicator I’ve seen.

Not Doubting anyone’s sources or positive vibes, but how did we go from Romeo and family not telling anyone to an IU lean? 

Can I believe, or am I setting myself up for Dissappointment like the last few times the positive train came into town?

Cheaney40: not busting on you; you are a great addition to the board. But, I also don’t expect pap to need to submit a “what I’ve brought” resume to us.
So, to remove pap from that spot, I’ll try to close the issue and pap can weigh in if he likes:

Pap is a moderator, he is not a blowhard...ever, he has real information that the other mods are well aware of, and he is not a smart @$$, a crusty old codger, or anything other than a likable fellow.
So there!

Crazy how it goes from:

Cancelling IU visit, Newman/Vick leaving, KU lock

-to-

Ernest Watford comments, Taylor to NW, good vibes in athl dept, IU lock in a day.

I’m liking where this is going

Tomorrow it'll be a lock for him to commit to Ivy Tech.

Which location, though? That is the question.
