Napleshoosier Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Gotta love this young fella. He stayed at home. Do I think he could use another year at IU ? Yes. But thumbs up to him. Thanks man!Sent from my iPad using BtownBanners IUsafety, Stromboli, JaybobHoosier and 4 others 7 Quote
cthomas Posted March 25, 2019 Posted March 25, 2019 Appreciate everything about Langford and what he has done here. If Hunter had been able to play and had been as good as advertised, I believe Romeo would have had a much better year. Sometimes things just don't work out the way one hopes they will.

WayneFleekHoosier Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 If you don't mind me asking, what do you mean?Multiple things. Adidas. Income potential. Star potential. NBA dreams. The kid isn’t truly ready for the NBA but the Marketing genius that was Langford’s dad and I guess maybe Adidas make it virtually impossible to comeback in my opinion. The risk of his perceived impact in the NBA could be hurt unless he played much much better next year in College. There is no guarantee that happens so imo it’s sad that his hype star shined so bright that he won’t likely live up to it in college. I hope he does in the NBA.

It's ridiculous that nobody asked about Romeo. Even if you don't think you'll get a good answer, you still ask the question. Bozich and the rest are so scared of losing their press passes that they won't take even a chance of upsetting the program. 8bucks 1 Quote

A guy like Juwan is completely ignored by the NBA because......he's a known quantity. Whereas multiple kids that are an enticing blank canvas with "measurables" will get lottery money and promptly be complete busts because they need a few years to develop. Romeo is an amazing talent that clearly needs another year or 2 to build his skill set. That shouldn't be punished, but that is how it is now. I don't think Juwan is ignored by the NBA because he's a known commodity. He's just a 6'7 post player who can't shoot all that well from outside or the free throw line. He's the kind of guy whose game is well-suited for college bball but not the NBA. Crimson and Cream, BGleas, moyemayhem and 2 others 5 Quote

Rob and Romeo are always hanging out off the court. If there were two people that I'd think would be butting heads in the locker room, they'd be the last two I'd think of. Quote

RatpigHoosier Posted March 26, 2019 Posted March 26, 2019 How are we gonna replace Rob?!?! Should we rethink our recruiting strategy this late in the game or just live with DG at PG next year? This is a real bummer to hear. And this post is facetious, for all of you “not able to get facetiousness” readers. Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners HoosierAloha and mdn82 2 Quote

Sent from my iPhone using BtownBanners mobile appNo, he likes his press passes and IU holds them over his and others heads on things like this. Best to not call one out for making a living for things you do not know. I guess the hot take without any semblance of a factual clue works better though.
