I couldn't find Romeo Langford's thread so I'll just place this here. Offered by UNC today.

As Aloha posted in the '18 thread...

Romeo Langford has the offers rolling in, offered by North Carolina now

No way Langford comes to Indiana unfortunately...

Care to elaborate?

Care to elaborate?

Maybe Romeo is hardcore Coke and not Diet Coke?

I'd love to elaborate. Thanks for asking! 

When is the last time Indiana won a recruiting battle with the likes of Kentucky, Duke, UNC, Michigan State, Kansas, UCLA, etc., for a top three player in the country? All of these schools are all in the mix for Langford. Just don't see him staying in state and playing for the home town school. If he's one and done, he's going to be looking for the best chance to win a Championship, which won't be at Indiana.

^^That implies that we're regularly battling for "top 3 players." ^^

With five star players? We've won a few (Zeller, Blackmon, Ferrell, Bryant), and lost at least a few (Lyles, Pinson, Harris, etc). 

Of course, UNC, Duke, UK, etc have also lost more than a few battles for five star players. And that's okay too.

Moral of the story? Overgeneralizing on any particular player's interest in IUBB is not especially indicative of that player's intentions.

Yep. That was 10-11 years ago and a completely different situation and a completely different coaching/recruiting staff. He had already committed to Illinois, so most other schools had backed off. 

[biteoftheapple 4,115]

JBJ is also an example. He was very high on Kentucky, he was a burger boy.

Exactly.. Indiana doesn't play in that space regularly, because one and done's generally want to go to a place where a Championship is a realistic goal in year one.
