Ajwhitis Posted March 5, 2018 Posted March 5, 2018 27 minutes ago, IU-DL said: An unsubstantiated gut feeling from a guy who has paid very close attention to this recruitment: I believe he really hasn't made a decision yet, and the family has done things by the book and hasn't spoken to anyone, including CAM and Drew. I believe it is Romeo's decision, and it's going to be heavily influenced by his father. Darius Garland plays no role in it, and if he did, Romeo would have committed to Vandy already. We're not only lucky to have a horse in the race, but we actually have a favorable lead. If we were not well received, Romeo wouldn't waste the time giving Archie last look. We know he wants to win (duh, advantage KU then IU), we know he needs a national stage (duh, advantage IU & KU) and it's inconceivable to think Romeo isn't well aware that he'll be an immediate legend at IU, but not at KU or Vandy. So, if Romeo is a passive, wet napkin with low morals/ethics (which he is not), Vandy is the spot. But he's not following DG and he knows when the Shittu stuff goes down, so does Vandy. That leaves IU and KU. He stays home. An unsubstantiated gut feeling. We have to stop saying he won't be a legend at Vanderbilt, they're best player ever is Will Perdue for god sake. Give Romeo some credit, he'd be a legend that all 8 Vanderbilt basketball fans tell their grandkids about. HoosierSadaseci, chicagoHOOSIER, MemphisHoosier and 2 others 3 1 1 Quote

I saw it mentioned a few pages back, but couldn't figure out the original story. It's not important, but when watching a house-fire it's nice to know who started it. I believe somebody said he was out running his mouth saying that the Indiana staff had informed him personally that Romeo was going to Kansas and it was basically a done deal. Think of how absurd that is why in the world would Archie or anyone on his staff share any information about recruiting with this kid. He is a 2 star recruit that IU would not have any interest in. sabaka and Hardwood83 1 1 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBannersAgreed. I thought it was a solid games the refs stayed out of. Close throughout. FC didn’t have the firepower to go up and down with NA. It played out like every person thought it would pace wise. NA won. Most figured they would, but it was a good game. Should have been at least in a regional or beyond.
