I know some of it is a regional thing, but.. it just seems like their location gets them a lot of recruits. Does it to anyone else?.. I get they have a lot of NCs, but what else?

MoyeNeeded Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 How important is it for Langford and garland to want to stay close to home? If it's really important, I don't see Kansas or ucla as threatsSent from my LG-H900 using BtownBanners mobile appUofL was a huge leader for Romeo for a long time. One of the reasons was proximity. Langfords are a very close knit family. So, for Romeo, I would think yes. Garland, not sure.Sent from my SM-G930P using BtownBanners mobile app HoosierAloha 1 Quote
HoosierAloha Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 I don't know for sure but the idea of being about 4 hours away would be a positive for IU. They will likely be able to attend most home games. They're also with a reasonable drive for several other B1G universities for weekend games. Champaign, West Laffy, and Columbus are all about 5 to 5 1/2 hours drive. Iowa City, Madison, Evanston, Ann Arbor, and East Lansing are only an 8 hour-ish drive.

Agree with your points, but Romeo and Garland definitely seem to appreciate fan enthusiasm. Iugradman, WayneFleekHoosier and mdn82 3 Quote
Hoosier Guy Posted October 28, 2017 Posted October 28, 2017 Garland has to be enjoying the weather in Los Angeles. It’s 70 degrees there. Way better than Bloomington at 37 degrees haha ALASKA HOOSIER and BtownBanner6 2 Quote

I think the talk that they’re both having “good” visits is good for us. There’s no “they knocked it out the park talk(at least yet) so i feel like this weekend probably doesn’t change much for us.

JHoosier914 Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 Have we heard anything new about this weekend with Garland?
