Well, yeah? They’re all about getting to the highest level of competition and the job that is going to change their lives. If they weren’t all about it, they wouldn’t work so hard to become the players they are today. Honestly, Indiana just has a long history of players that peaked in college and didn’t have the tools necessary for the NBA, and the fanbase isn’t used to it, in my opinion.

I think you need to take a fresh look.  IU has more players in the league than any other B1G school and a franchise stud to boot with Vic.

Isaiah Thomas has been the most successful NBA player out of Indiana. Vic is our next chance to have a star. Maybe OG as well. Other than that, we have some guys early in their careers and we’ll see how long they end up playing. I stand by my original point.

Wasn’t Grimes the one who said Romeo was “staying home”? It’s all smoke and mirrors. Can’t wait for this to be over.

Vic doesn’t have a chance to be a star.  He’s cemented himself as one and not going away anytime soon.  Don’t forget about EG averaging around 20 on the best team in the league.  Recent history is bright.

Quentin Grimes looks a lot like Jake Forrester in this picture.

It’s my fault; I asked Grimes if he would be willing to troll the begeezus out of a few posters on this board.

It's just social media. Retweets are not endorsements, etc.

We will all feel better when Taylor commits.

We will all feel better when Romeo commits in two weeks.

It just seems like its Kansas.

Sure seems like it but this is one strange recruitment.  Absolutely nothing would surprise me at this point.

That’s fair. I forgot about EG. Vic hasn’t cemented anything yet, in my opinion. He’s having an all-star year, but to be a star you need to bring that kind of play year after year. I really hope this is the new norm for Vic, but he’s playing so far above his previous average logic says he’s likely to regress slightly next year.

Indiana just isn’t known for producing the top NBA talent. EG, Vic, and OG could all help change that. Yogi too if the Mavs don’t waste his talent.

Vonleh still isn't out of the question (he doesn't turn 23 until August)..he's avged 7 and 7 for CHI in 19mins a game. And Cody had a 10, 7, and 2 season while shooting 57% from the field, and then couldn't stay healthy this year. 

And I personally think TB will stick simply because of his range on his jump shot. He's dominated the Gleague.

One reason for the boost in stats is he is the #1 offensive option whereas on all past teams he was not.  He’s also gotten serious about offseason workouts changing his body.  There is no doubt the identity of the team leader.  I would look for those numbers to continue.

 Ok I’m done now.  Let’s hope we land Romeo and he can blaze his own path as well.

I agree with your point about Vic being it’s kind of a break out year. With his work ethic though I could see him improving upon this years performance.

Yeah Romeo retweeted the picture of himself and Quinton Grimes at the Jordan brand classic. And the Tweet said wouldn't it be crazy with these two playing together next year? The picture has them both standing there smiling with thier arms crossed. Romeo retweeted it! That definitely put some gasoline on the Fire has a previous poster stated.
