A lot of the Big names are making mistakes with this kid. And we are the beneficiary.

UL screwed itself, but other than that, how is this different than any other recruitment? If he picks IU, it wasn’t because he was out of other options.

IU just isn't sexy in New Albany. I go to games down there, and you'll see kids in UK, UofL, UNC, or Duke gear. Very few kids around here are IU fans. We haven't been relevant. IU is not a dream school for these kids, much less Romeo. Believe me, if he comes here it's because Miller is that good and he just couldn't find a better option.


Have a feeling you'll see less UL hats moving forward...

You’re all over the place man. First, you say IU isn’t getting him. Then, you say IU is getting him. Now, you say IU isn’t a sexy option. You’re changing your mind more than a woman on her worst day. Pick a stance and stick with it

My stance is that he will come here. I was making a point because I'm close to the situation. He didn't grow up on IU. His buddies are most likely steering him away from IU. I know the kids at New Albany. Their is a contingent of IU fans down here but the majority of them are 40+. The kids have jumped on UofL and UK. Some like UNC. The kids that like IU usually come from very pro-IU families.

And that can start to change with one of their own going to IU and being part of a new era at IU

I graduated New Albany High school back in 2002 and it was much the case then. I grew up in New Albany and live here. Indiana fans are different here. We are mostly a Louisville market and out local news is Louisville based. There are a disgusting number of U of L and Cat fans. A lot of IU fans are more fair weather and the most tend to be the older ones who can remember when IU is revelant. This makes a big difference to younger kids and when most of local news coverage is UK and UL it's not shocking a lot of kids root for them. Heck go to a local store here you will find far more UK and UL stuff. I don't know if it's because IU markets itself poorly or store don't want it but that's the reality. I believe we get Romeo but it's only because of Archie and what he's selling.

Living in the Louisville market UL and KY dominate the media and the retail in this region.Its hard to find IU apparel until you get up the road a bit.
When Knight's team's were at the top of the heap they had no choice but to talk about us but that was a long time ago.20 years of irrelevance changed that.
Langford choosing us, along with winning would go a long way with changing the millenials view of us.
