Someone on the Rivals site said he knows that Darius is telling people Romeo is going to Vanderbilt. Whether this is just wishful thinking, hot air, or the truth is unknown. But we can’t dismiss what the Vandy people are saying after they nailed the Garland recruitment.

I will be so glad when we stop recruiting against Bryce ******* Drew. 

Don't worry, after this year the only recruiting we'll be doing against Drewfus is if we're trying to steal a 2 star recruit he's desperate for out of spite.

He was 1-5 against Illinois and 3-11 against MSU.  Probably cost us both games.  Scored 0 against Purdue.  Are you sure you're watching basketball?  

Against Purdue wasn't good.. he and Morgan were the only reason we were in the UI game at all. Cost us the MSU game?... are you serious? Wow. He will play ahead of Phinisee with the way he's played. You using a shooting % to show how well/poorly someone played pretty much sums up how much I assumed you knew about all of this.

If he IS talking, then he is trash.  To my knowledge Romeo never went around saying, "hey Hoosier fans, Darius really has u 3rd behind Vandy and Ucla"  Pretty sure he let Darius do his thing.  Darius should do likewise IF he is saying things.

Ok, I think Drewfus needs to be the official moniker. That's hilarious!

I still dont see Romeo as all that good of friends with Garland.

Let those little birds chirp all they want. It will be great to see their reactions when/if Romeo dons the cream and crimson. Still believe the Langford's high basketball IQ will win out here and Romeo will end up at IU.

We don’t know where he’s going . Just a couple of absoluters giving us hope from wishful thinking.

I can't wait for this recruitment to be over one way or another...

This thread makes me smile. I’m not the biggest jackass on the planet. Clearly... some of these clowns have to rate higher.

I’m sorry.... please ban me....

I find the whole Vandy crew to be obnoxious ever since Garland committed. I thought Garland led the media and IU on. And I feel the coaching staff at Vandy are just giant trolls. They are acting like they will be this future blue blood. It's not going to happen. At this point I really want this whole recruitment and the drama over. I feel like Colts GM Chris Ballard. "Are you in or you out"? We will be fine regardless.

It's an awfully arrogant group for such a trash program. Drew will never have another class like this again. His coaching will be exposed and I would not be surprised if he leaves vandy a mess and on probation.

Package deals rarely happen yet the AD may get two top ten guys to follow him to a horrid program. Nothing to see here.

His coaching was exposed the last 2 minutes of the Kentucky game. Just terrible all around. How could you want to play for that guy/program?

[Ranger78 1,293]

Are we really trying to figure out where Romeo is going to go or are we just pissing down our pants and asking ‘what’s the status”.

Garland is literally begging Romeo to come there because he realizes what an awful decision he made. Amazing that a guy like that wouldn't look at the track record of coach Miller or even a guy like Chris Holtman at OSU? I guess guys like them are just too clean?

He knows without Romeo they won't be that good. Other than playing with a buddy there really is no upside for Romeo. They may be on tv a few more times but nobody follows vandy. It's not like duke or iu where you get a big draw playing in a tourney away from home.

I doubt they are even on TV more times next year than we would be with Romeo

I don't see Romeo going there, and if he Does, he'll end up regretting it.

I'm wondering if they have a shot at Montgomery.  The Vandy fans think they're going to land him and a couple guys on Rupp Rafters who live in Nashville said that Garland got to him during the Italy trip over the summer and has been working him to Vandy ever since.  Most think he's Duke bound though.

If Vandy is already oversigned for Romeo, how in the hell are they going to add EJ Montgomery, too?

Here's another kid they're trying to reclassify to 2018. Blake Hinson (6'7" 230lbs PF from Bel Aire, KS) is currently ranked 134 in 247 Composite.

IMO, this feels like Drew is trying to cash in on this recruiting class and get the hell outta dodge to the next job.

“a couple guys on Rupp Rafters who live in Nashville said that Garland got to him during the Italy trip over the summer and has been working him to Vandy ever since.”

Further evidence to the theory that Garland has been a mole for Drewfus from day 1. They both knew all along he was hometown Vandy-bound and has been recruiting for them ever since.

If Garland truly wanted to play with Romeo that badly, he would've waited a little longer and gotten a better feel on Romeo's recruitment before committing to Bland-erbilt.

Coach Shannon with Kent Sterling yesterday, for anyone who might be interested. I personally haven't listened yet, so I can't claim any potential insight re: Romeo's recruitment.
