[mdn82 25,510]

Is that during the early signing period? Maybe he wants to announce/sign same day.

Yes it would be.

Months out? Ask Peegs if that was possible with realistic info and not a guess. Educated? Maybe, but there was no solid intel that said 100% Romeo to IU outside of Hoosier Guy.

I called the exact date by over a month to go. I had good reason to believe what I was told from where it came from. Peegs and those guys are journalists and they have to fact check. But they talk to the same person I do, just maybe don't get the same info.

Problem is, Chris also said to watch for a commitment from Trayce within the week of Romeo's, in early May. Sam recently said to watch the dates of Oct 5th or 12th. Here on Oct 22nd, we're still waiting for even the announcement of an announcement.

I'm not doubting the integrity of anyone who has graciously told us what they've been hearing. But what they were told either wasn't true or more likely changed somewhere along the way. There's no guarantee it can't change again, and Trayce could still flip to MSU or UCLA. It's not over until we hear from Trayce himself, and the longer this goes, the harder it just is for me to feel that we good.

You are correct the exact same person who told me Romeo will announce for IU on this date told me that TJD will follow suit 2 weeks later. I know for sure the info about Romeo coming to IU was taken to TJD and he was so excited he said he was going to announce too in a couple of weeks. Maybe he was just caught up in the moment. I was also told he would have announced by now too. It's happening just not on my timeframe.

The exact date? Props if you did. That’s impressive for sure. I don’t mean that to be rude or condescending. That’s not easy to do. Usually most recruits have a general idea of when but not an exact date until a couple weeks leading up to the announcement due to scheduling an event like that takes time. . Like a look for the week after USA camp is still impressive and usually what we see. The exact date? I don’t recall, but props.

The exact date. If I had the time I would look it up. That's why when the family said he didn't know till a week before I knew that wasn't true.

I can't vouch for it being over a month prior, but I was lurking at the time and do recall Chris providing the exact date of April 30th for Romeo's announcement, first thing in the morning on April 11 before Rabjohns et al were giving out that information publicly later in the day.

I don't doubt the veracity of his sources. But I also heard someone once say, when assessing Indiana's chances of landing Trayce, that something would have to change for him not to end up in Bloomington. Each time we hear from Chris and others of a pending commitment, then nothing happens, it suggests that something has changed. When Indiana is the presumed front-runner, change is bad, and so it's tough not to worry as this thing continues to drag out.

Honestly I think it makes sense that Trayce is going to wait and do a commit and sign once the early signing period starts. This would also allow Center Grove to do something for him like New Albany did for Romeo like other rumors have suggested.

2 things. You are probably right on the exact day. I got back to the 11th and you had made a comment about it being the last day of the month. That was the day Romeo announced the 30th and Tim said no. I forgot how long in between the announcement it actually was. 2nd thing. I miss DMB... That dude was great lol.

Not hearing anything. Haven't reached out to anyone, dealing with other things here at IU that are not good but not in athletics.

....and now sadly you're more qualified than me.  Why the one-upmanship? Thought this was a friendly board! 

[ebridges24 2,417]

I'm not coming at VO5 or anyone else I'm just saying what I have/haven't heard.

I know you weren't and prolly everyone on the board knows that. Its not your style.
