In reality, what source has been take it the bank correct? Our guys have missed here and there - really believed we were looking good to get Garland there and in reality we weren’t even really in it. Their guys said definitively we were getting Donovan and many have said since that was never even a realistic option etc so some of our best sources have been way off.

I think they all got it right and right pretty early on this one but who knows until Monday

It’s because there’s nothing to talk about. If they would’ve heard anything different, they would’ve posted it

I'm not doubting yet but a little word of assurance when people are getting nervous would be very welcomed!;

They’ve said all there is to say: Romeo is coming to Indiana.

Take your pins and needles, pick up Bailey and the kids, and go play Gossip Girl in the other sandbox. This is a drama free zone now my friend.

What's there to get nervous about? This isn't life and death.

No...noooooo Nope. I don’t want to see anything from those boys at this point. The last time that happened was because they had gotten unsettling info inside the 12th hour...no no no. Stay away.

Curious.    Romeo Langford is choosing a 1-year stepping stone tomorrow.   There are > 13,000 posts about it in this thread alone.

What will you all do if he decides to go to a school other than Indiana?  What will it really mean?   Indiana has a solid team next season.  A highly ranked recruiting class, several highly ranked kids interested in the program, Archie is developing terrific relationships with local coaches, Indiana Basketball is still (and will still be) one of the most valuable entities in college sports; and the program is in good shape, good hands, and has a bright future.   

Putting aside the "he will make Indiana cool again" argument because I don't agree that Indiana needs to be "made cool again."  (Victor Oladipo, OG Anunoby, Eric Gordon, Cody Zeller, and Thomas Bryant are all recent pieces of evidence to substantiate that, in my opinion)   

Why are people panicked about this decision?  Why on pins and needles?  Why so anxious?   You'll all be IU fans whether he comes or not, and you'll all be fans the 2019-2020 season when he'll be in the NBA regardless of where he plays his 32-27 games next winter.  I hope he comes to IU, however I don't understand the panic and anxiety.

I didn’t realize Chris007 and Pap had to play Mommy and Daddy and soothe our nerves.

If I'm either one of them, I'm on the board.

But I'm just scrolling and chuckling, not posting a thing. Just a fly on the wall soaking it all in.

I wouldn’t say I’m panicked, but to bite and answer your question, I think IU 2018-19 has a huge need for perimeter scoring/a lead guard/a starting two. Romeo seems a dazzling example of those things. Without him, next season has a pretty low ceiling: probably a bubble tourney team without much chance of a deep run.

With him (and Juwan back), IU seems like a B1G title contender and potentially an interesting tournament team.

While the long run (2019-20 and beyond) forecast may not change much regardless of his decision, we can be excited about having a team with the potential to live up to the Indiana standards we heard Archie and Fred Glass lay out just one offseason away, instead of two.

The Romeo decision is massive. First, it makes us good NOW, not at some to-be-determined point in the future. Second, it gives Archie his first elite recruit and likely NBA player that he can use as a selling point to future recruits. Third, it will entice 2019 elite recruits to come to IU.

You are so very correct.
