mdn82 Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Par for the course for top 25 kids or top 50 kids it seems. Heck even as far back as CWebb and others. How UK doesn't get caught. Amazing.

akhosrof Posted January 14, 2017 Posted January 14, 2017 Romeo was expected to be at the Duke/L'Ville game today, according to Twitter. Likely watching one of the two teams he'll play for. Louisville is looking awesome. They are near impossible for any team to beat when they are hitting threes like they are today. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Quote

Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 1, 2017 Posted February 1, 2017 Kyle Neddenriep @KyleNeddenriep 4h4 hours ago More Can confirm @newstribscores report that New Albany's Romeo Langford will miss 2 weeks w/ dislocated pinky finger. Will be reevaluated then. Really bad timing for the New Albany team as they have four games in the next 2 weeks. Then three more regular season games before start of sectional play. Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 3, 2017 Posted February 3, 2017 New Albany didn't miss Langford too much in his first game out with his injury. New Albany used a 56-32 second-half edge to bury Hoosier Hills Conference opponent Jennings County. Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 5, 2017 Posted February 5, 2017 Major upset as New Albany without Langford is beaten by Columbus East 52-46. hsrtxp and HoosierAloha 2 Quote
Class of '66 Old Fart Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 (edited) Langford returned to action after missing a couple of games with a dislocated finger. New Albany defeated Providence 55-40. Langford with 14 pts.; 10 reb; 5 assists and 3 blks so I think he's probably OK. Reports were Roy Williams was watching. Post-game comment from Langford: "I'm going to have to get used to playing with this wrap for about the next three weeks," said Langford, who came into the contest averaging 28 points per game and is a consensus top-5 player in the class of 2018. "With this wrap on, it's like playing with three fingers on my right hand, it makes it kind of hard."

IUsafety Posted February 11, 2017 Posted February 11, 2017 I told my son he should immediately go take a shower because that man is dirty. In all honesty though, Roy was actually very nice and approachable. Unlike Slick Rick.Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners hsrtxp, Crimson and Cream and ALASKA HOOSIER 3 Quote
