If you listen to any recruit every visit is a great visit. I wouldn't read much into it.

Enjoying the process I suppose. And if Archie isn't certain they're a lock why isn't he really recruiting anyone else? Watford, Hurt, and Stewart all seem like extreme longshots.

I have think Archie absolutely knows that he has both in the bag. He just has to as we're not really leading for anyone else. Nothing else just makes any sense. If he doesn't already know he has both then we probably have a coach who is far more clueless than Mike Davis or Tom Crean ever could hoped to have been. That's not the case though guys. We have a great coach and TJD and Brooks will both be Hoosiers.

That's the consensus on this board that TJD will commit soon and KB by early November.

When was its inception? Also, as ADegerenate has pointed out the B1G has never really recruited with the big boys. In the past 20 years how many top 5 recruits went to a B1G school? Oden and EJ for sure. Maybe Mullins and Koufus but both of those guys were over ranked by at least 20 spots. Well I found the list. Some surprises were Jimmy Jackson over Calbert in 92. For you old timers did Calbert get robbed? Did Alford get robbed in 1987? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Ten_Conference_Men's_Basketball_Player_of_the_Year I think Romeo will be the best player in the B1G. I don't know if he'll get the award though.

IMO the only 2 freshman the B1G has had in recent memory who were nearly as good as Romeo were Oden and EJ. Oden nearly brought OSU a title in his one season and EJ was by far the best player in the league before his wrist injury and Sampsongate. We'll see what happens.

How many top 10 recruits didn't make 1st team B1G as a frosh?

Agreed it's just speculation. But I highly doubt many on this board if any would trade Romeo for Carson Edwards if they were being completely honest.

He's played plenty just not in college. Neither has RJ Barrett but many analysts have him as the best player in the country.

That wouldn't surprise me. Green will get first crack though. But if the dumb play continues he'll ride pine.

Romeo not on the 1st team lol

From La Lumiere right? This really may be Steve's last rodeo.

He's not top 20 in any of the rankings. I know he's good and we'd be blessed to land him. But do you think he'll be better as a freshman than Hunter will be as a sophomore?

He'll be a top 5 pick after the season IMO. How many of those guys have come back in recent memory? I'm just playing the odds. I'd say 95% he's gone.

Coach Marshall will help Brooks tremendously if he comes here.
