Am I the only one who keeps checking if Meyer's changed his prediction?

Rabjohns saying this morning that he's talked to Meyer and he feels comfortable staying with the IU pick.

[Nick_Bragg13 382]

Rabjohns just put into Peegs a little bit ago that Jerry feels comfortable not changing his Indiana pick and unless he hears different he wont as the Indiana chatter picked up a little bit again.

This is true.

Maybe the other schools don't have writers who follow as closely as Rabjohns and therefore aren't pumping out as many updates about Darius.

But I haven't seen him acknowledge much of their work, if any, like he's done with Rabjohns.

If you play Achie's post-game remarks from last night backward and at half-speed, about 15 seconds in, you can clearly hear: "Darius is coming." ... And about 30 seconds later: "Romeo will follow." ... And about a minute after that: "Paul is dead."

Turn me on Darius Man

If Darius does pick IU, please win with class. Please don't go over to Vandy sites and bash their insiders.

They post on their football board because no one posts on the basketball board. I don't think we will be doing that. lol

This reminds me of the CZ recruitment. Ebbs and tides. Read the tea leaves and put the CB and pundits talk aside. The wind is still blowing North to Btown.

That's going to require some restraint. That Jesse Johnson guy that runs the 247 is essentially a troll. Accused Peegs and Rabjohns of being "new to covering recruiting"

Agreed.

And since there has been some stress-induced bickering amongst ourselves from time to time, please don't rub each other's nose in it here either.

Is there even anyone to talk to over there? Lol.

He has only three Crystal Ball picks for 2018: Darius, Shittu and Romeo all to Vanderbilt.

He has only two picks for 2017: Victor Uyaelunmo and Aaron Thompson to Vanderbilt. They committed to USC and Butler, respectively.

He must be new to covering recruiting.

This is somewhat telling imo. The IU chatter has picked up again just hours before the announcement.

It tells me that no one really knows. It's not like Jerry doesn't talk to these other guys making the picks. If he was given good information, he would flip. That hasn't been the case. Truly up in the air.

To be fair, there are a lot more of us chatting than there is for Vandy. Only a few more hours til we know for sure!
