(2018) PG Darius Garland to Vandy

[Class of '66 Old Fart 81,333]

Regardless of the decision, as many others have already said, his recruitment has been first class.  He's got great family support and I'll wish him well even if he does indeed pick Vandy.

I'm not that concerned about the "where" of the announcement.  Most of these kids make their announcement at their schools with the high school coach present.

Right, and the assumption it's bad in this case is predicated on the idea it'll be a pro-VU crowd. That's...not a great reflection of Nashville, imo.

As I said Vandy, Vandy, Vandy.  You all should've known that when Vandy was in Romeos top 3.

Everyone really appreciates you coming out of the woodwork to just share your misery with us.

I have a scoop: 

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with the girl who saw Darius at Mother Bear's last night. I guess it's pretty serious.

He's going to Vandy. Oh well. 

I really try not to get into the ebbs and flows of recruitments but I agree. I don’t think he would announce right before IU’s first game against a ranked opponent. Won’t all of IU’s media be at the game too? Vandy doesn’t have a game that night, either. I just don’t see it.

Countless Indiana prospects have announced at their high school for schools other than IU over the past two decades but here we go with "it's at his tiny private high school so it must be Vandy". Spare me

Yea I️ don’t get people freaking out about this. Making announcement at your school is very common practice. When I️ was in school they used to do it on our library and students could get passes from the player to allow them to go to the signing. This isn’t a big deal.

We've never really been in this.  He's trying to get Romeo to Vandy and from what I hear is doing a good job of it.

So the announcement could still be on ESPN, we play on ESPN that night against Seton Hall. Could be a nice intro to the entire fan base just before the game.

We’ll probably know where he’s going way before he announces Wednesday. So where he’s announcing really doesn’t matter

As conspiracy theories go, this is both more pleasant and more plausible than the idea that IU is doomed because he's announcing at his high school.

What joy do you get out of being this way? "Never really been in this" What planet have you been on for the last couple months?
