Popular Post Yogi's Picnic Basket Posted February 21, 2018 Popular Post Posted February 21, 2018 I just think it's crazy that Vandy is selling winning to Romeo over IU & Kansas. That is the only reason I will think anything shady happened if Romeo chooses Vandy but it's still be a big ? for me. I just don't see it but I get why some do I guess. IU may be 16-13 but Justin Smith & Juwan Morgan will both compete for All B1G teams & Romeo would be a 3rd. Then add Rob, Jerome, Jake, Race, Damezi as well as what the others will bring back. DeVonte or De'Ron could become good to great as well. I'm higher on us than most but even negative people should be able to see that even with Garland & Shittu and him it's good but not enough. They have no solid pieces besides maybe Lee & Ryan the ND transfer. Nesmith is a prospect to watch in the future but not next year. Kansas has loads of talent and waaaay more than Vandy with all 3. It's confusing. One year of playing with a good friend even a best friend shouldn't hold that much value. That's why i get why people assume the Langfords are on the take, but I still don't and won't. He will be making plenty of money soon enough why risk it? Idk the longer I go on the more questions I feel could be brought up with this recruitment. CR3AMnCR1MS0N, Btownclouds, Iugradman and 9 others 12 Quote

If most of the other players of your caliber are getting it, you would almost be selling yourself short if you didn’t. If there is money involved i don’t blame the Langford’s one bit, he’s earned it. Crappy system Vandy and Kansas have all but proven they will go slumming, Shittu, Preston to name so would be tough to compete without doing the sameSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app Btownclouds, BtownBanner6, thebigweave and 1 other 4 Quote
Hoosierfan2017 Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 There's really minimal risk for a player like Romeo to taking a few hundred grand. He'll be a lottery pick next year regardless, and the chance of getting caught before declareing for the draft is low. MikeRoberts 1 Quote

Also, I think image would be tarnished for taking the money, especially if he is as good of a person as it is portrayed. I personally don't think his intentions are taking money, but I wouldn't be astounded by it either. Honestly, the 3 headed superstars are all the rage in the NBA nowadays, maybe those 3 are trying to create a college one year superteam? Otherwise, why else would you go to vandy, other than money?Sent from my LG-H872 using BtownBanners mobile app Quote
MikeRoberts Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 Only reason to pick Vandy is that he could get tickets for 100 of his friends and family for the same price as it would cost his parents to get 2 tickets to an IU or Kansas game. $3 vs $150. Makes sense if you are on a budgetSent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile app thebigweave, CR3AMnCR1MS0N and Hoosier1031 3 Quote

In this instance, in regards to the Langford recruitment only, I guess the business decision they are making could mean two entirely different paths.

yogisballin Posted February 21, 2018 Posted February 21, 2018 I hope you don't read into too much of what a lot of IU people say then. Every IU source was wrong about Garland and quite a few national guys as well up until the last two weeks. Other than that recruitment and supposedly a Billy D thing when I wasn't even writing and have no memory of but who knows who wasn't hearing things when it came to that, I've been right even if most is football and anyone that follows me off here knows how many recruitments I've been on for awhile and I've shared plenty from recruits themselves. I knew about Damezi, called him & Rob coming to HH as well which was a foregone conclusion for most but I did say it first from my direct interview with him and his dms are open he will tell you himself, I told everyone MONTHS ago Garland and Romeo wanted to play together and it was very real and I took loads of crap for it and now look. I'm not gonna name every instance I was right but that's enough. In recruiting you're wrong some and right some plain and simple dude. I don't mind getting bashed but this is getting annoying when you quote every post when I try to share things lol. I've backed off sharing more than just general info honestly for awhile, because I don't want to get people's hopes up and take the fall if they go south it's recruiting. It happens. So I just share info that's neutral and try having regular conversations about them. Tim Langford has said he wants Romeo to be sure and once a decision is made they will make sure it's the right one. So yes if saying he will like 90% of kids makes a decision and then makes sure it's the right one by taking some time is that crazy of a "source" then I won't share things like that either. I've been coming here for years and have developed some friends off of here so I won't just stop coming here. I’ll speak on my behalf here, I appreciate the info so far. And totally agree with you, these are 18-19 yr old kids. Some change their mind over night!

Popular Post pumpfake Posted February 21, 2018 Popular Post Posted February 21, 2018 In the days/weeks/months we've had to speculate on this recruitment, a thought finally clicked into my mind (maybe I'm just slow to put this together): Drew is trying to model his program after UK, basing it on the NBA. He sells his (meager) NBA experience and tries to sway recruits with (sub-meager) NBA alumni players. He's attempting to build his team the Cal way, with 5 stars and getting them to believe they can form a super team. I don't see it working because he's at a school that has nowhere near the resources and support that UK does. Maybe he really is eyeing Lexington as his ultimate destination? Also, I wonder if Garland sees himself as the Mike Conley that can vault himself into a higher draft position by surrounding himself with players better than himself? Not to put down Conley, because he somewhat surprisingly became the more successful pro player than Oden and some others. I have no facts to suggest that anything illegal is going on in RL's recruitment or at VU, but it kinda defies the "smell test". I've seen others justify why Garland chose VU in the first place because it's his home team, but still, how often does a blue chipper opt for the home team (one that has never had significant success) over big name schools? Heck, Butler has had way more success than VU and they've had no success in recruiting 5-stars from Indy. Finally at the risk of being repetitive, Vandy pales in comparison to KU or IU in terms of pretty much every facet involved in success on the court. My measured optimism is based on the belief that Romeo will make a thought out and intelligent decision rather than a teenage emotional one. RatpigHoosier, Bowhunter, Iugradman and 9 others 12 Quote
