TJD would be my guess if anyone reclassifies. As I said around semi state, TJD really wants to play with Romeo. The grad options at guard were backup plans, but sounds like Archie is confident in landing Romeo. Mooney & Taylor both felt like they wouldn't see the role that they had hoped for. Mooney more so. 

I really hope people don't think we end up as the "default" option for Romeo IF we land him. Archie has done a great job making progress with him and has made us a very legit contender. He deserves a ton of credit. U of L and maybe now Kansas did this to themselves.

In my mind, I've been blindly confident since HH. Langford family very close knit family. It makes total sense that he would stay in state to make it soooo much easier on the fam to attend games. His mom and dad have been by his side since day one. Don't think Romeo would let distance get in the way of that.

I hadn't seen any talk of TJD reclassifying... Is this a possibility??

Amen to this!

Since before the Crean firing, I thought we'd have a chance at Romeo with a competent, not awkward coach. Then the Archie hire had me suuuuper optimistic. When he landed like 5 four stars in 2 hours, I got confident that he was the man (if anyone) who could get the job done with Romeo.

U6 getting busted just made everything 10x easier, and I've thought we'd be Romeo's destination since then.
And there's even an extent that being the "default option" isn't bad, or a reason to discount the signing if Romeo is smart enough to realize IU is the only school he likes that's doing things the right way. Just makes it a no-brainer.

Can you send me one too? Unsurprisingly, your inbox is full.

Wasn't aware of that? I'll delete and then shoot one your way.

well...Cody Zeller was from Washington...that's pretty far south.
Sherron Wilkerson from Jeffersonville, played at IU.
Damon Bailey was from Bedford.
Calbert Chaney was from Evansville (right on the Ohio River)
Michael Lewis was from Jasper
Brian Evans was from Terre Haute


from New Albany? nope, can't find any...but I think Purdue got a couple from New Albany over the years it that tells you anything.

Jared Jeffries from Bloomington
I mean, look at the advantages. KU- Play with other great players and decent chance at a National Title. Vandy-none that I can see. IU-All of us on here can list a myriad of reasons to stay home, but being a sentimental old guy, family first!
