(2018) SG Romeo Langford - INDIANA HOOSIERS

[BH33 736]

Someone sent this to me this morning to look at. Is Ryan Wheeler an asst at New Albany? If so, he had a few interesting tweets during that final exchange last night plus some back-and-forth. https://twitter.com/Wheelerallday

For those with twitter, expand that bottom tweet and read the 30+ responses. He doesn't say specifically Romeo is going anywhere, but easily comes across as pro-IU and pro-Archie.

Wheeler is a NA assistant and a UofL fan but my buddy knows Wheeler and he wants him to go to IU.

Just reading his tweets, I would certainly agree with you and he doesn't seem to hide it...

Romeo got to see first hand what will always happen if he goes to Vanderbilt to play with Darius....Darius trying to be the show and making stupid decisions instead of passing to a wide open Romeo. Wasn’t the smartest thing to do in that game if you want Romeo to join you at Vandy. I also noticed that Romeo shined the most and made most of his points in that game when Darius was on the bench away from him, not stealing the spotlight. I don’t think any of the 11 assists Darius had involved Romeo getting a bucket, maybe one... (did you notice that as well, Romeo??)

True, and on behalf of the mods I am confident in stating that you also can't say:

1. "**h*"
2. "*r**"
3. "#*&**j**a"
4. "ri(**#@h#*!"
5. and especially not "##@s#@@a#d***"
6. BUT, saying "fungus"
7. "gosh"
8. and "fiddlesticks"

is usually allowed.

So watch yourself, my friend!

Interesting responses from two of the Kansas guys...

 

 

They've either been discussing Romeo amongst themselves or maybe they've gotten that impression (or have even heard) from Bill himSelf.

For anyone who didn't get to see the game last night.

 

Or, if you're like me, you forgot to set the blasted DVR and only saw the last 3 minutes of bad offensive possessions by two particular players.

Also interesting response by Louis King. That’s who Romeo was sitting and talking to every time he was on the bench.

I still get a real sense that the players who are most like Romeo, and the ones that he can easily see as teammates who he can easily connect with, are Justin Smith and Rob Phinisee. When I hear Romeo Langford interviewed and then I hear those two Hoosiers interviewed I can't help but thinking those three are quiet, serious kids who want to be on the same side of a battle.

Purdue Person Vitale used to be my favorite, but looks like you can type his first name now lol

I believe the Grimes prediction carries some weight.  People talk about RL & QG's relationship and how Grimes was drawing him to Kansas.  All the Vandy predictions are surrounded by him following 2 other players to college, and I don't see that happening. Drew just has this coating of slime on him, and it's hard to turn a blind eye to that.  It's IU.

IU all day

Definitely.  An article recently talked about his video game buddies.  For those that don't know, online gaming is HUGE.  It has really taken over for what social media used to be, for guys anyway.  Kids all share their "gamer tag," and then at night they get online and they chat and play games together.  In the past few months, there have been reports that Romeo games with TJD on a regular basis.  He games with Darius all the time.  Rob Phinisee has started gaming recently, but as Romeo says, "he's not good."  An article this week just said that Romeo and Louis King play video games together all the time.  Previous interviews, Romeo said Grimes is his best friend, and then as an afterthought threw in Darius as well.

What I'm saying is that Louis King, who has no skin in the game but is tight with Romeo, says Indiana.  Grimes, who is a best friend of Romeo and does have skin in the game, says Indiana. Also very interesting that Bazley and Jones both note that Romeo has been hanging with the Kansas guys all week, and yet they think he's going to Indiana.

Otherwise, I refuse to take much from this beyond reinforcement that nobody knows.  The responses are almost comically spread out over the three schools.

Off the subject but yes gaming is so huge right now. My 12-year-old and his friends play all the time. I'm pretty sure fortnite is going to be the death of him or me. He said last night I wish I could play fortnite with Romeo we would win for sure. Then said I've heard he is good but I'm a little better. Some days I just sit and listen to what he & all of his friends are saying. I will say they communicate better with the gaming system than they ever have on the basketball court.

Next practice make them all wear gaming headsets

I get it, these are high school kids and they live in their own little bubble, but it's so irritating the way the guys that picked Vandy act like there's only talent in their own class and only if a guy is a McDonald's AA. One guy picked Vandy and said something to the effect of "At IU he'll have to carry the load, but at Vandy he'll have lots of talent around him with Garland and Shittu."

I'll take a senior Juwan Morgan, and even a sophomore Justin Smith, over a freshmen Shittu (even if he was fully healthy) every day of the week and twice on Sunday. Heck, Jerome Hunter could have every bit as good of a freshmen year as Shittu. IU is a way more talented roster.
