Some good news, per Adam Finkelstein Simsolu Shittu will not be making a announcement today. Will be a Spring guy. Expect him to take more visits.
Was he suppose to be picking vandy today?

Ever since he cancelled/never scheduled a visit to UNC everyone has said he could pop anyday. I was under the impression he would definitely take more than ONE visit but Vandy has been it so far which is another reason why Vandy goes were confident and rightfully so. 

Archie isn't against recruiting more kids this year, but he focused on the 4 commits, Romeo and Garland mainly as well as a few others for a bit. Archie could call every kid in America, the question is which ones will listen. IU had some interest in Shittu at some point so it wouldn't be crazy if it happened but I haven't seen anything that would suggest we will. UK will definitely get involved IMO.

I gotta say I have a little smirk on my face with the possibility the vandy insiders will have to sweat this one out until april. They were an awfully cocky group the last few weeks.

UK was involved at one point before they prioritized jaxson Hayes. I guess that there was conflict between RJ Barrett and Shittu because after Barrett went to duke some people were saying UK would get back involved. Just my opinion but if he doesn’t sign today Oregon and UK will be involved

Forgot about Oregon. They are always a threat with Canadian kids. Hadn't heard about the Barrett conflict though so that's good to know. I didn't know if UK's pursuit of Hayes was legit, sounds like it was though. Think he makes a nove up the rankings by the end of the year. Competition is gonna grow for Shittu though and as you said those 2 along w others will likely join the mix. 

A lot of kids seem to be trying to stay close to home more this year though so my confidence for Romeo hasn't went anywhere. Gonna be fun to follow as well as Shittu and Simons. Really curious where he goes.

The spiteful part of me would love to see Shittu go to UK and Romeo to IU - leaving Garland stuck at Vanderbilt.
You got it. The vandy insiders have to know if they don't get him today all bets are off. The vaunted three man mega class could turn into a one man show.

Yeah me too.

People who say they'd rather lose Romeo Langford or Darius Garland to Vanderbilt than a school like UK or UNC are crazy.  It stings super hard to lose a recruit to freakin' Vanderbilt.

Seriously, I don't want to lose Romeo to anyone obviously, but if we do, I hope it's Kansas instead of Vanderbilt.

If you were going to lose your girl, wouldn't you rather lose her to Channing Tatum than Jonah Hill?

That last line sums it up nicely.

Losing Romeo to freakin vandy is like a dagger in the heart. It would be embarrassing.

I'm scared we are going to lose Romeo due to our team losing this so much this year. We are no where close to competing for anything.  We have some nice pieces coming in next year,  but I'm afraid it's going to be too late. 
Vandy won't be doing much better.

Really don’t see Romeo commiting to IU. They aren’t anywhere near Kansas’s level.. And Vandy is going to end up with commitments from Garland and Shittu. Forming a ‘Big 3’ has to be appealing. Either of those two situations beats what Indiana has going on right now. Can’t help but feel like IU is just a sentimental finalist.
