The Damon interview had me thinking that while he was there Friday night, on senior night Romeo could announce for IU and then not go on his visit to Vandy. Kind of like a middle finger to Garland and Vandy.

This would be epic

That would be beyond awesome. All of drews planned festivities would be for not.

I'm saying he would announce for IU tomorrow night and not go to Vandy on Saturday.

Is this a realistic possibility?

99% No I'm guessing but we can dream right.

That's true but to an extent. I'm sure Romeo and his family don't want Garland narrating his decision and running his mouth all over social media. Being a reason they are friends make sense, but not this. Sucks. I hope Romeo gets to make this decision with people knowing it's his, not his dad's or not Garlands.

I still haven’t seen a link to that video. I’m sure they wouldn’t want that. When did Garland say that stuff?

Yeah we sure can. I’m not sure when he’s announcing but I’m still bullish on IU

I only saw it eluded to on the premium board, the video was posted on the vandy premium board and I couldn't see it

Romeo liked this on twitter, take it for what it's worth, but one thing is for sure. He knows we want him and he seems to appreciate it, at least enough to acknowledge it on twitter. He does not do that when KU or Vandy fans tweet at him.

Oh. I was putiing in terms of whether skipping the Vandy visit would make me happy, but...

Anytime he announces for IU is a good time.

Keep in mind the twitter game Garland played, liking, retweeting, and trolling all things IU.  It was shocked at how intentional he was until the day before he committed.  Remarkably childish. I'm not saying Romeo is that way, but DG definitely did it, with intent.

I could see him announcing on senior night in front his family and friends and a full crowd that is just there to see him.

It's pretty funny how worked up grown men get over where an 18 year old kid decides to play basketball.

Yes but in all fairness he is not your average 18 year old kid and sadly some of us have lived our entire lives around iu basketball lol. Getting him would be a big deal for iu basketball imo

Yep and giving iu has not been relevant for 25 years i think people have a right to want him badly.

Romeo is the biggest recruit to get in some time. It’s bigger than Zeller. That’s just fact

For most of us, it's just the Hoosier kid in us coming back out!  IU basketball is all we care about and all we ever want to care about!

I don’t know if Archie needs to adjust his recruiting pitch or what but we should not be fighting and scrapping with Vanderbilt and UCLA for kids in our backyard. I guess we are paying for the sins of our past.

Or we're not paying for the sins of our past.. if you catch my drift.

It's also the first time a lot of us have truly been excited about IU basketball again so we are taking advantage

 

[woodenshoemanHoosierfan 6,248]

Would it make everyone feel better if for some reason Romeo doesn't make the visit to Vanderbilt? Would we feel like we got Garland and Vandy back some for how they treated us? 

I'm not worried about the visit. His dad said all along they were going to make a visit there. They have a plan and they are following it to the letter. I want Romeo, but I won't read into this anymore than following their plan.

I really don't get comments like this.. The kid was 17 years old. What makes you think he deliberately trolled IU? You think he took the time to do these things just to mess with the IU fanbase intentionally for what reason exactly? He must be some kind of diabolical sociopath.

I'm going out on a limb here... Maybe he was excited about all the love he was getting? Maybe it was a really tough decision for him that came down to the wire, but ultimately he thought the better choice for himself and his family was to go to Vandy?
