Well Devin Ebanks supposedly had a 3 way with a couple sorority girls during his visit.

Ok that's just what they were saying on the other site.

I think the pics that were posted on here with Morgan were from last year when they signed a lease.

Garland isn't going there.

Oh whether to go to IU and attend Kelley or go to Purdue and be an engineer. Whether to go to med school or law school. Whether to borrow 250k to attend an Ivy league law school or take a full ride and attend Maurer or ND. I made all of these decisions with a couple months all would have significant ramifications on the next 60 years of my life. We are talking about where Romeo is going to attend school for 8 months before packing his bags and heading to the NBA. Again, he'll be a top 10 pick no matter which school he chooses. Eric Gordon made possibly the worst choice he could have due to Sampsongate but it had no impact. He'd still be in the same position he's in today regardless of where he went.

Romeo could go to Evansville and he'd be a top 10 pick next year if he wants. He's going to make 10s of millions no matter what.

I've made far bigger decisions in my life and it didn't take me nearly this long. We're talking about where he's going to spend less than 10 months of his life. I've known plenty of people who have met and gotten married in under 6 months.

I don't buy that at all. If he doesn't know by now how is he possibly going to know in 2 or 3 weeks? Nothing will change. If he is honestly undecided he should just draw a name out a hat at this point.

He's going to Vandy but I'd bet that rumor is complete BS. Probably started by Drew or Garland.

Don't be such a pessimist. Hurt and Watford are coming too.

To the Langfords credit they have handled this extremely close to the vest. I still say Vandy but I've also said pay close attention to the announcement location. If it was Vandy or KU common sense would say announce this week at the McDonald's game. It it's in New Albany common sense says it has to be IU. I can't believe the Langfords would be dumb enough to announce in front of a very pro IU crowd that he's going elsewhere. If that was the case he should just call the coaches and let them know and skip a formal announcement. If IU fans are looking for a reason for optimism a New Albany announcement would be it.

Does Xavier have any good recruits for 2018?

I'm sure the AD will be putting on the hard sell next week. I'd imagine he and Drewfus are on the phone nightly practicing the sales pitch.

I never said they were but they can if need be. They will pay whatever it takes to land their guy and they will land their guy. Obviously if he's willing to come for less they arent paying any more.

I'm just saying that they can pay what they want. They bring in more revenue than any other college basketball program. https://www.forbes.com/sites/chrissmith/2016/03/14/college-basketballs-most-valuable-teams-2016-louisville-kansas-kentucky-on-top-again/amp/

He needs to get rid of the street ball aspect of his game. Otherwise i see Phinesee playing more.

I think they'll get Mack. They can afford to pay $8M+ a year if need be and there's no way Xavier will be able to come close.

A back up plan if we strike out on TJD and Brooks?

Xavier was doomed right when Tom Crean predicted them to win it all back in the preseason.

Crean learned almost everything he knows from Izzo. That now explains so much.

Ironic that Greenspan's first choice to replace Davis was Beilein but Herbert insisted that a wnhite candidate could not replace Mike Davis under any circumstances .

Those are good points but I'd also say that we were close to being a tourney team this season. Simply add an a guy like Jordan Hulls to this season's roster who can actually make an open shot and we probably beat MSU, Purdue, OSU, Illinois, Rutgers, Wisconsin, and possibly Duke. We were not far off. I hope Romeo sees that.

You must be thinking of year 2 when Ellis, Crawford, Holman, and Dre arrived. Those dudes could party.

I don't think so. The fan base will expect a tourney birth no matter what. Butler seems to make it every year no matter who they lose. We're Indiana. Samspon made it his first season and almost beat FF bound UCLA in the tourney with a roster that really wasn't any better than the one Archie inherited. I really like Archie but it is what it is.

I don't know about major improvement but we have to make the tourney. If not Archie will be sitting on the hottest seat in the country to start year 3.
