Bailey7878 Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 To each his own and I respect your opinion. I was feeling disappointed yesterday afternoon as well. I'm as competitive as the next guy/athlete/fan, but there are some situations where there actually is a consolation prize and it can even be ok to accept it. All you have to do is imagine there hadn't been a coaching change. After nearly a decade of FCTC I think we can all accurately surmise what the outlook for 2018 recruiting might be right now and I don't think we'd be looking at so much potential. And we wouldn't see a team picking apart a half court zone. Or *gasp* in game adjustments. Losing out on Garland yesterday and knowing the possible effect it could have on Romeo was a shot to the pills. However, we're only in position to feel that way because there is already great work being done presently and so much potential in the not so far away future of Indiana Basketball. Chin up, Hoosier fans. We're already well on our way. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersI could deal with Romeo going to Kansas. Losing him to vandy would be a tough pill to swallow.

Bailey7878 Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 I don't think Garland was ever going to happen. Phinisee is where we went and probably had a great feel for how DG was going to end at the time. Romeo is a different story. We still have a great chance, imo. Why else are we saving that final scholarship??? Wink wink Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners I did not used to think garland was ever coming to iu but I bought into the message board rumors and changed my mind. I guess I should know better.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Toothdr 1 Quote

Hoosier Guy Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 I’m finally calm about yesterday. I’m not nearly as confident on Romeo now but I still think IU can get him Stromboli, HoosierAlex, CR3AMnCR1MS0N and 2 others 5 Quote

He'll commit before the season or after the season. And my thinking is he will in the early signing period On 9/23/2017 at 4:38 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Back to my normal self. Romeo to IU On 9/26/2017 at 5:30 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Romeo is not going to Kansas. I'll leave this board if that happens On 9/26/2017 at 8:32 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Romeo to IU. I'm so confident I will leave the board if it doesn't happen On 9/30/2017 at 10:00 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Romeo to IU. Nothing changes my mind. I'll trust my source and that's me. He's gonna be the cornerstone recruit to give IU that boost for the future. Go get him Archie! On 10/22/2017 at 9:02 PM, Hoosier Guy said: That quote absolutely says IU knocked it out of the park. He’s gonna commit in the fall. Been saying it for months On 10/22/2017 at 9:11 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Who’s gonna go to Bloomington South opening night? Romeo’s first game and he’ll be a Hoosier at that time. I’m down meeting up with people On 10/23/2017 at 5:46 PM, Hoosier Guy said: I think you’ve got something. Grimes was always the more likely recruit for them. Two more weeks at the most with Romeo On 10/24/2017 at 11:26 AM, Hoosier Guy said: I’m thinking he doesn’t visit Kansas. IU commit this week! On 10/27/2017 at 11:55 AM, Hoosier Guy said: I’m referring to any person that thinks Romeo is waiting till spring. That’s illogical On 10/29/2017 at 0:35 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Romeo is gonna be awesome in an IU uniform On 10/30/2017 at 5:17 PM, Hoosier Guy said: I’ve been confident this whole time but still good to hear. I’m thinking he’ll commit next week On 11/7/2017 at 11:41 AM, Hoosier Guy said: I like his hair and the fact that his name is Romeo. He’s a stud haha On 11/11/2017 at 1:03 PM, Hoosier Guy said: I still think IU gets Romeo regardless. However, it’d be a little more interesting. But I think that’s irrelevant. Garland is picking IU On 11/11/2017 at 1:43 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Once Garland commits on Monday, Romeo won’t be too far behind On 11/11/2017 at 2:07 PM, Hoosier Guy said: He’s not waiting till spring. How many times have we seen people say stuff like this and not follow through? Once Garland is in the fold, it’s a no brainer where Romeo is going. Not waiting till spring On 11/11/2017 at 2:13 PM, Hoosier Guy said: Exactly. He’s not waiting till April to commit On 11/12/2017 at 11:24 AM, Hoosier Guy said: Well then Yogi, IU’s chances for Romeo are only gonna go up after Garland commits tomorrow. If they can go higher in the first place 23 minutes ago, Hoosier Guy said: I’m finally calm about yesterday.

Uspshoosier Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 DG won't affect Romeo's decisionSnow agrees with you. He just had a big write up about it and says it won’t be major factor that Tim and Romeo will do what’s best for Romeo. Said Kansas did tremendous job on visit. Also said IU has as good as shot as anybody. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app HinnyHoosier 1 Quote
Hoosier DaDa Posted November 14, 2017 Posted November 14, 2017 If you take Hoosier Guy comments as truths IU would have all 5 star recruits that want to stay 4 years and Billy Donovan as our coach. He pumps so much sunshine you can't belief any of it. I'm not trying to make fun of Hoosier Guy, but there is no way that I take any of his post seriously.
