Trae Young shot 36% from 3 last season. Only 32.6% during conference play. I think Romeo can do better than that next year. 

Well sure; his percentage is likely to be better.
And I have a reasonable belief that he can and will be a better all around player than Young.
But Young was on a mediocre team with little size, an awful defensive scheme, and no other player anywhere near as good as Juwan Morgan.
For the amount of scoring load that was put on Young, 36% from three is really good.

I didn't watch any of his games last year so I'll defer to you on that. The percentages are all I have to go by. Do you know what Romeo shot in high school?

Trae Young also had the greenest light I've ever seen a player at a high major school have. He took a lot of bad shots. I'd bet Romeo shoots around 47-36-70 next year.

Obviously high school to college, but both shot 36% this season from 3.

One thing about RL committing to IU was it put to rest the idiotic theory that he didn't announce before or during the season so he didn't have to hear boos from fans.

I think we are going to remember that one for a long time.

When actually it was LITERALLY the opposite. It was our benefit that he waited.

Has Romeo signed his official LOI yet, and if not, is there a date set?

I was impressed with Young this year, and Romeo is absolutely comparable to Young as a shooter. As a passer he isn't anywhere as good as Young, shooting wise they're very comparable.

Note:  I didn't read the entire article because I'm not subscribing to do so...but, from what I read, here are my thoughts.

The problem with the article is the author is scolding the adults while it was Romeo's choice to celebrate with the fans in the manner which he did.  He has been actively (and very generously) engaged with the fans and the community throughout his senior season, and the fans came out to celebrate with him and to offer him support and congratulations.  No one knew with any certainty he would choose Indiana.  Many were New Albany fans, and they would have been watching on television or online had it not been done in the high school.  I think it's an absolute waste of time to write such an article...I hope by coming at an entire community with a vengeful motive helped soothe this poor author's disappointed heart.  And, if it didn't...well, then f..k 'em.

As with most of these pieces, it is written by someone armed with about half of the facts and very little background on the subject. Anyone who has actually followed this for the last year has nothing to learn from an article like this, except for how little you have to know about something to write about it.

Have to say it’s not like the Langford’s were seeking attention by dropping nuggets of information along the way, false or not.  He never said another uncomplimentary of any of the three schools and they were never secretive of the fact that they weren’t going to announce until the spring.

We are lucky to have Romeo. I don't care how involved his Dad is. We needed Romeo more than he needed us.

At least his dad is involved.
