Bailey7878 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Ignore those guys, they're all weirdos. They were big Crean fans and are probably still salty that he got fired. I was planning on it. Not sure why I even read it Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Hoosierfan2017 1 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Hypothetically, let's assume Henry is seriously thinking of decommitting. So if Henry initiates a contact completely on his own we have to hang up the phone on him? It's meant as a serious question because I don't know the answer or the ins and outs of the NCAA rule book that would come into play in such a scenario. And I assume there's always the back door approach via high school coach, AAU coach, etc., to determine if IU is even still interested? Inquiring minds want to know. Quote
WayneFleekHoosier Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 It’s not true as described, but there are surely ways to have back-channel communications with a player that’s backing out of his commitment.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appI agree with this. And if it's true (not saying I think it is) I'm not upset by it. Seems like a great kid and a great athlete. We Could do far worse. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Stuhoo 1 Quote

Bailey7878 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Just spoke with a guy whose son plays at Warren Central and knows Aaron Henry pretty well and said that Archie met with him 2 weeks ago and word is that he's decommitting from MSU in the midst of all that is going on and will be coming to Bloomington next year. He said the writing isn't completely on the wall but that speaks volume about what Archie thinks our chances are to land Romeo...if true of course. Looks like Archie has a solid backup plan in place.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersIsn't Henry an undersized 6'5 forward? Romeo is a guard last I checked so not sure how that shows wring on a wall. MS would have to let him out anyway and so far the bball program has not been implicated. So not really sure what his grounds would even be asking for a release.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote

WayneFleekHoosier Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Just curious are you locking in with Vandy then? Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appYes. Here is my honest belief. Indiana coaches "will have a final chance to sell Romeo on how he fits in the program". Will Indiana match Vandy's offer? I don't think so. But you never truly know for sure. Will Kansas? Maybe.

Once he is released from LOI then IU would make contact Class of '66 Old Fart, WayneFleekHoosier and thebigweave 3 Quote

Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners mobile appKids are actually getting released more frequently without a coaching change lately. Waters got released out of his last year when JT3 was still the coach ( he was fired after) The school has every right to not release them even if there is a coaching change but that would be a bad PR move Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Uspshoosier 1 Quote

Bailey7878 Posted February 20, 2018 Posted February 20, 2018 Yeah this isn’t happeningI believe we are pretty loaded with 6'6 to 6'7 guys any way..I would think we'd look to add another guard if no romeo.Sent from my SM-J700T using Tapatalk Quote

Hard to believe they would let him out of his letter of intent without stipulations. Just doesn’t happen without a coach getting fired or family emergency.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app HoosierSadaseci 1 Quote
