Quote from the article

"Watching Crean’s development as an analyst the last year, I did believe he was the smartest guy in the room. *He can break down a team and an in-game situation like few I’ve seen*. ESPN certainly was sad to see him go."

Not trying to be a jerk, but i hope they are talking about a highlight and not in-game coaching there. 

You know that one gif where he just has that shocked look on his face (im sure you know exactly which one). I am not sure as to what my face looked like while he was talking about it, but i think its a safe bet to say i looked exactly like that.

As one man once said, "You cant fix stupid"

I agree with you. For instance, lets compare romeo to "veteran transfers" of years before (not saying these transfers are as good as taylor, but just for theory of debate)
Romeo > Newkirk (veteran)
Romeo > Zeisloft (loved him, but still)
Romeo > McSwain 

Experience is very valuable, but sometimes talent like romeo is worth way more than 2 years at a DII school or a school that plays in a weak conference.

Deshaun Thomas - Freshman in High School
Gary Harris - November
Zak Irvin - July 31st
Trey Lyles - November 5th
Kyle Guy - October 20th
Kris Wilkes - November 13th

All those players were Mr. Indiana. They all left the state for college ball. All announced before or during their senior season. I don't know if they received any backlash, but i don't remember hearing about it. Was i disappointed when they didn't chose us, yes. But after about 5 minutes of wondering why, my concentration went to worrying about the class we had coming in and players staying. It wasn't spent on bashing the player for choosing what he thought was best for him and his future. I think most reasonable and understanding fans think that way. And i think the Langford's think that way. I do not believe that worrying about backlash has anything to do with his decision date. 

*Disclaimer - contrary to popular belief, i have been wrong before and most likely will be wrong again at some point...though not very often*

Time to take a chance on my day 2 (3/16) pick.
I am going with 7 seed Texas A&M in the first game of the day.

I don't know if I can provide an answer but I know both lineups look golden to me.  I have open arms for either.

I'd take option A. I feel RP will be great at getting Romeo the ball. And when teams try to double Romeo, then RP is well enough to score himself, along with the deadly combo and Juwan and Romeo could cause with P&R's...I can picture Juwan setting a screen, the defense staying with Romeo who then passes to the open Juwan, defense collapses on Juwan by the basket and he lays it off to a cutting Justin Smith for a big slam. Or romeo just pops a three and bang haha

That can be the same for any coach. You are hired to be fired/retire. Very few retire. I mean there are two outcomes. It’s not like we had a bunch of foresight in that thread. I will make a bold prediction and say Archie will be fired from IU eventually. Does that make me Nostradamus? Not at all. Hell I could cherry pick his shortcomings in year 1 and say what he will eventually be fired for. You would say his recruiting. I would say losing to cupcakes. Then he gets fired. We are both right in our eyes and go on your scoresheet of being right. Unfortunately for some getting a coach fired isn’t black and white. That’s where that thread was annoying.
