(2018) SG Romeo Langford - INDIANA HOOSIERS

[WayneFleekHoosier]

I've had 3 hockey games in the past 24 hours. I missed all the fun.

Sounds like a wild game. If Romeo "watch" hasn't been declared, it's official now.

We’re probably about 2 weeks away from a Severe Romeo Warning for Floyd and all surrounding counties.

I can confirm. That Bryce Drew told coach Shannon after the game, that if New Albany had scored more points than Warren Central, they in fact, would've won the game.

I can also confirm Drew spent most of the night at the concession stand waiting for the cheese whiz machine to warm up to use as a topping for his hot dog. Then asked a random fan why the teams were sitting on the sideline and not under the basket

Too bad the game wasn't in Bloomington. Then he might have traveled to Bloomington, Illinois instead.

I believe that's what I saw on Twitter.

I heard that Cam sent Freddie down to run blocker for Romeo during post game festivities.

My guess is once Romeo commits somewhere then the attention and contstant refreshing go to Brooks or the TJD thread? Possibly Austin Boucher?

If Newman jumps in rankings he might be up there too in refreshes. Kid is good. This AAU season will be interesting.

Forgive my ignorance (like you haven't already!), but I watched a little of the Warren Central-New Albany game online today and noticed three officials. They don't always use three at high school games, do they? ... Is it just for playoffs? ... Last weekend, I watched a little of the regionals to see Damezi and Romeo play and didn't notice three officials -- but I wasn't really paying much attention to that.

Yes, high school varsity uses 3.

Can we expect a visit soon?

Game write-up from the New Albany paper at the link below.   Romeo was 13-27 from the field and 7-12 from the line.  As a team, New Albany was only 14-24 on FT's and that was the ballgame.

Lol, Drewfus was put up in the corner of the third level. 

I keep thinking about this in comparison to Archie’s seat courtside for two games last weekend. It obviously doesn’t mean we know anything about the outcome of things, but I like it.

I’d guess either Arch is smarter or better connected or both, or whoever assigned coach/media seating at Seymour is using their limited power to advance an agenda — maybe all of the above.

Recall that Arch even got into the locker room after the regional semifinal win.

Do we know if they even spoke yesterday? I'm sure at least by phone/text. But I didn't see anything notable.

That’s how it should be,. IU should always the inside advantage with Indiana high schools, aau programs etc.

Glad you brought this up, as I almost mentioned it but figured my point was long enough already.

After last night, Romeo talked with a few people about his high school career, but my understanding is he didn't want to discuss his recruitment. Sounds like the family wants to take a few days to gather themselves and will start locking in on wrapping this thing up. Rumor is he would like to visit IU after next weekend. The McDonalds game sounds like it'll be a release of sorts for him. Also would probably narrow his announcement to a New Albany or through ESPN kind of like how James Blackmon did it appears. Archie has done a great job and regardless deserves credit for how close he has gotten to landing Romeo. I get when there isn't news, theories are the only thing people can hold onto, but let's not go crazy with it. Everyone has the right to assumptions heck we all do it, but also remember it's his choice not ours. If he chooses Vandy or KU it's time to move on. It'll sting if we lose him and it will be awesome if we get him. It should be that simple. 

 

Non related, but I also want to give Alex Bozich a shout out for his tweet and when it completely backfired he didn't delete it. That is rare lol.

Ryan Taylor would immediately become our biggest target once this one wraps. I believe we'd take him and Romeo but realistically if we got one of them, our team has a LOT better outlook next year.

I want both really bad. This would be a ridiculous roster imo. 

Starters: Phinisee, Langford, Taylor, Morgan, Thompson?

Bench: Green, Durham, McRoberts, Hunter, Smith, Davis, Moore, Forrester, Anderson

The size and the length of that team could cause some serious issues for some teams. Now I know we'll have to wait and see if anyone transfers but that team could make a deep tourney run imo. Hopefully CAM can convince Romeo and Taylor of that as well.

Montague.... we have it all in B-town for you.... Including your Juliet.
What’s not to like about that?
