Imo we'll see some of Romeo, Green, and RP or Romeo, Durham, and Green or RP, Durham, and Romeo. 

Call it a 3 guard lineup if you want.. Romeo is 6'5-6'6 so it's not like he'll be undersized to play some college 3. But we will see some of those lineups, especially if the other team is undersized (ILL) for example.. and against their pressure. 

Good point. I would assume Romeo will spend plenty of time on the ball, so defense, limiting TOs, and shooting will be paramount qualities in your PG. Nobody in the mix has shown all three consistently at the college level, so it may take some time to establish a hierarchy.

Agree.. but... Romeo is very good off the ball too. Green or RP in a pick and roll with Romeo on the opp wing/corner to kick too. I agree with everything you said.

I never doubted Archie

[Brass Cannon]

I really doubt Phinisee starts. No knock on him but McRoberts intangibles and defense are great for a winning team. If anybody knocks him out of the starting lineup I'd expect it to be Smith.

Al can be a pretty perfect first guard in at either position because he defends and limits turnovers.

 Poor Al ,the guy nobody wants to recognize potential wise or even for what he's already shown for that matter.

Yes hes not the greatest shooter in the world but there's so much more to the game.

When he's All Big defensive team as a junior it'll be a love fest.

Same here. Most of my co-workers are all Purdue, Michigan, or Ohio State fans and dog on IU as often as they can, but when I told them we hired Archie and what he’s been able to do up to this point, they’ve been shaking in their boots..

Easy boys. We've yet to sign a 5 star. Let's just enjoy the process 1st.

Pardon my ignorance, but what does this mean? ... Are you saying Archie hasn't signed a 5-star? ... We've signed 5-stars in the past -- were't Gordon, Zeller and Vonleh all 5-stars? ... Or are you just saying we've yet to sign THIS particular 5-star?

You’re always all over the place. First you say Vanderbilt. Then you say Kansas. And now you say IU. Are you gonna stick with IU or go with the G league next?

There's still a lot of time between now and April 30th and no prediction means anything until an LOI is signed.

If Romeo is a no go, I'm gonna take a long, long hiatus from here and won't be landing anywhere else.  So i'm super hopeful it's truly Romeo to IU.

It’s just a waiting game now. It’ll be fine

I hope it doesn't come to that. This recruitment is a little different than others, for me.  I spend a fair amount of time here, but everyone whips people into a positive frenzy with their guarantees and done deal proclamations. If it doesn't happen, they just happened to have been wrong, no biggie. I've bought in before "fool me a lot" but if this doesn't pan out "fool me no more".

Well we have the April evaluations coming up which will keep us busy for a little bit.  Should be fun to watch/hear who the staff prioritizes.

I'm with ya brother, and I don't think his is that bad. He just needs to work on it some.

 

[mdn82]

There are several national recruiting analysts who have solid intel that it is IU plus there is the fact that he his announcing in front of the general public. A few data points that are promising.

On top of this a lot of people saying it isn’t done after all of this would be the ones saying it’s done if Kansas or Vandy were inserted into the articles where IU’s name is. It’s over.

I can’t start talking about potential lineups with Romeo until he says it’s IU.  I like the way it sounds but man the 30th can’t get here fast enough.
