(2018) SG Romeo Langford - INDIANA HOOSIERS

[goonaha 2,972]

Romeo visited an IU game, on his own, and gave a positive post visit interview, less than a month ago. I know when people say the same thing over and over again on every page of this thread that it can be easy to lose perspective, so just a friendly reminder.

I do remember Piston Honda from the scout site  back in the day and he was as connected as any.

All of the endless speculation is over.  His babysitter from his early years said this was his favorite Sesame Street character so you can see where his thoughts already were at a tender age.

Hmmm.. Okay...

Drew is putting all of his eggs in this one class. Unless you are Coach K or Calipari, taking the one-and-done approach is a piss poor way to run a program because you have to keep bringing in elite talent for it to work consistently. Even Calipari has regressed lately and Kentucky fans are getting restless.

Like u said its a one year deal for drew and it will backfire. Even with all 3 he won't win 20 games.

It’s probably more accurate to say that everyone who posts something like this on a message board probably doesn’t know, unless they do.

What I do know, is that it’s impossible to be able to tell which message board anonymous poster is the one who actually knows something.

I would venture that 1 in 1000 might.  Romeo is inundated with IU fans, sees IU gear at every game he plays, hears it on Twitter....  If he knew, he would have committed by now.  There is no reason (if choice was definitely IU) to hold it. 

The fact that he hasn't committed yet is either 1)  It's NOT IU and he doesn't want the crap which would follow him around the rest of the season or  2)  He doesn't know yet.   I don't know anything.  No inside information at all.   But..I would trust that logic 1000 times before I'd believe someone who said for sure "it's IU."   

Now, he may end up being right....that Romeo will indeed choose IU, but that doesn't mean one bit that he knows something now.

Romeo could very well want to see if Morgan is sticking around.

I think Morgan being there next year would give him more shots

I’m not gonna worry about it too much, but it is odd to see self and drew continue to make visits and Archie not, if he is recruiting him as hard as we all think.

When was the last time they both visited? When was the last time Romeo visited us? Again going to his games he has limited amounts. I would venture to say there is some level of communication that we don’t see or hear about. For the life of me I am not sure why some of you are getting so caught up in this. Now if he were in his state title game and we could use 3 more visits on him then ok. But he has as many as 9 games left and 5 or 6 that mean something. It’s ok. We are recruiting him as the other schools. I am pretty sure Archie and Romeo knows where the other stands.

Depending on your viewpoint, you can look at Romeo not yet announcing his college decision as a positive, neutral, or negative development.

ESPN has been pushing hard for him to announce at the McDonald’s All Star Game and his extended family will all be together for the big reveal. Romeo will be able to maximize his national recognition and appeal by waiting.

And announcing there would also put IU back in the national spotlight. I think it’s a clear situation

Completely disagree. There is ZERO reason to commit before you are required if you treat this as a business decision. Gather all of the information available to you, because there is nothing threatening your ability to make the same decision at a later date.

1 in 1,000 is about right! And since there have been about 1,000 who claim to have inside info...

I feel like CAM is working hard on this team and showing what he can do as a coach. That’s something the Langford’s said they are watching. CAM is doing a great job, while Drew is using up his visits and not doing anything with his Vandy team. 

Hope you're right W, just gotta wonder why Arch hasn't made any recent visits.

Looks like Drew is going after another 2018 recruit despite not having room. He will be kicking several players off his roster in the offseason. What a way to run a program, bringing in one year mercenaries in a desperate move to save his job.

Sounds familiar for some reason.

Not the point.   At all.  I said if he was a definite IU commit, he would have committed by now.  If he were already a definite commit, he would be through the information gathering stage and have already made his "business decision."    The larger point is I don't believe one bit that he is a "decided" and definite IU commit right now.

[IUHAHN81 2,184]

He can have all he wants, just not Romeo.  Romeo is a Hoosier.

[Hoosier1984 1,571]

Thanks to ******* Pitt. Had they not have hired Stallings, we'd already have Romeo in the bag.

Not to mention they gave us the gift of Newkirk which is a gift that keeps on giving

Drew is desperate since he can't coach. Like crean he needs massive talent to hide his sub par coaching and will do whatever he needs to get it. Drew won't be at vandy in three years. Bank it.

Assuming he commits at the McDonald’s Game, it will be before we know what Morgan is doing.

Before we know. Maybe not before Roneo
