(2018) SG Romeo Langford - INDIANA HOOSIERS

[Bailey7878 2,506]

Arizona being the "leader" for Shittu doesn't bode well imo for the school that lands him. Kid was going to get paid at Arizona until they were caught. Clearly willing to take a check. Now he is going to a school that won't pay him. Lol. Yeah right. Vandy isn't above board.

Same as Nassir Little to UNC. Get real. Gettin paid.

Agreed. Kind of like how smu magically got good at football. Vandy just magically had 5 stars wanting to come. It's a miracle.

Arizona was willing to pay a lot of the 2018 guys it seems.

THEY ALL ARE. THEY ALL HAVE BEEN. (The ones with legitimate title hopes).

And many of the ones who aren't. WKU, ASU, Mississippi St, LSU, Xavier, UNLV, and on and on.

Not a coincidence they are title contenders every year.

Thanks for the update! Make sure you share this update on all the other boards too.

Is there a rule against posting on multiple boards? Why is this type of post necessary? Just because he thinks differently than you?

I profusely apologize for thanking ranger for his always timely appearances and news updates at various IU boards. Sorry mike.

Of course there’s no such rule.
I would speculate that the inference was that ranger trashes IU in many boards.

Timely? Idk, he and others got ripped to shreds saying DG was going to vandy and now the same is happening about Romeo going elsewhere. Not everything posted has to be sunshine and rainbows for IU. There are IU fans of all sorts and here is plenty of reason to be skeptical. IU has missed on these types of recruited for the past 20 years. Being a skeptic doesn't make one less of a fan.

Speaking of inferences...  Whole lot of reaching going on in this.

Who is speaking of inferences and what does that have to do with my post? You like to trash posters that disagree with you, that has been a recurring theme in your posts.

It has been tough being a proud IU fan and until Archie and IU sets a new standard for success, I don't blame any IU fan for being skeptical about our ability to land recruits nor win games.

I don't know why they have to be called out at every turn/called trolls.

Yes, you moved the bar a little here but we have gotten what, 1 top 5 recruit which is what Romeo is in the past 20 years or so.

That doesn't make for a good track record or reason to feel confident. So, trashing anyone that is skeptical and labeling a troll is in my opinion unfair

Stuhoo mentioned inferences right above you. He was responding to you, and you were responding to me. So that's how it relates to your post.

I guess you fancy yourself the protector of free speech on the board. That's admirable of you. I'm wondering why then you seem to have such an issue with me expressing my thoughts. Apparently a theme of mine is "trashing anyone that disagrees with me". I've responded with some sarcasm to some accounts that have made a habit of coming out of the woodwork when there's an opportunity to pass on negative news or opinions. I guess you could construe that as "trashing", but I wouldn't. 

"Another crystal ball pick for Vandy on Romeo the insider at Vandy has great info on recruiting Meyer on board too."

I responded with some sarcasm to this because what else should I do? I don't even know what to make of it. It's three different thoughts in one sentence that only leads to more questions. What Vandy insider? What is his info? How do you know his info is great? Do you know Meyer's reasoning? I suppose I could ask those questions, but it'd be pretty useless considering ranger's history. So, again, sorry for being sarcastic. Didn't mean to offend.

Meyer has no new info he just felt Garland going to vandy was enough to move the needle

It doesn't take much for Meyer to change his pick from IU either.

Vonleh and Gordon were both top ten. I'm not testing anyone not did I. But we normally list them to blue bloods. Not vandy of all places.

Stop testing me Bailey:) no I know, losing our target recruits to vandy is new but losing them in general isn't. That's why I don't blame some for doubting our ability to, we have just failed to bring in these guys at a high clip over the last 20+ years.

We need to get back to a place where when we set our sites on 5 kids we almost know with certainty we land 3 of them. That's how it used to be and that is how it is at uk, Duke, Kansas, unc etc. we aren't anywhere near that so why bash the crap out of people that have doubt? Are they the crazy ones or is it the unbridled optimists that are basing their confidence in hope and love and little more?

Where did I bash you? I agree of all the blue bloods in the last 25 years we've been a joke compared to them. The rest have continued to be great and all we do is rebuild after rebuild. I kn ow it's archives first year but losing a top 5 instate guy to vandy would be a new low. If he doesn't pick iu I think it's Kansas. I really do. I just can't see a guy like Romeo not playing in front of packed crazy gyms imo.
