The no visit thing doesn't bother me at all. That had the look of a victory lap and this has the look of a recruit who is tired of traveling and wants to keep a little suspense in the decision. Credit Romeo and family for playing this as well as the Zellers did. Nobody (including me and DBM) outside of a very tight circle (that isn't talking) knows where he's going and that's a good thing. I hate decision announcements with no mystery in them. He did mention Schilling in the quote. And we all felt like Ed and Clif were a big feather in our cap. So at the very least that is something he weighed. Now we see how many % points that really counted for him. Or if the recent success and 1andDones at KU mean more.

But his latest quotes make it seem that he cares about the NBA, not the campus. Langford took an official visit to KU the last weekend of October, 2017. He's been there.

Henryville Hoosier Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 If I had to guess by reading his comments, I think it's IU. He seems to be really sold not only Archie but coach Schilling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mile never said he knew where Romeo was going only that he'd shocked if Kansas was the pick. And you never said Donovan to IU. That was Btowninsider an obvious troll. Thank you sir. Very true about being shocked if Kansas is Romeo's pick. Especially after intel coming my way.... just today. No... I can't call it for IU. Wish I could. But I am willing to say.... today.... this thing is still up in the air. And I doubt KU is a player. Despite, a minor change in the Crystal Ball. I will have you note IU is still in the lead. And there is a reason why. Coaches.... coaches.... coaches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But to decide to not take another visit when those 2 coaches are asking you to doesnt feel right. He'd have to be close to 100% IU right not to know he doesn't need another visit.

Some of you need to just take a deep breath. He had very good things to say about IU (IMO the best. Talked about both Archie and Schilling. Not talk of other Vandy or KU staff members). He's also looking to announce in-state, in front of a pro-IU crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoosierSadaseci Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 A lot of people said that if Romeo visited IU again that it was a good sign, would probably be more a visit about academics, now that he's not visiting IU again are we to assume it's a bad sign?

I get that and I'm assuming that's what the recent picks are going off...a couple of KU perimeter players leaving. I think there is a LOT more to this decision than that.

milehiiu Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 One can get info about IU academics over the internet . Or over the phone. I have a young lady directly across the street from me who's best friend is at IU, and I have given her ways to get info about IU. Edit: I forgot to add...we are in Colorado....and not in New Albany, Indiana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally think he is, but he's allowing himself room to change his mind if something big breaks with any of his choices. I'm not locked-in confident, but I've felt very good about IU's chances for quite awhile. No need to rehash all that's been mentioned in 200+ pages, but there are a lot of reasons to choose IU and stay close to home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JcityHoosier Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I strongly believe that he will end up a Hoosier. Just the way people around the area are talking. Its very positive....even a New Albany assistant coach that I know seems positive about IU being the choice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, and before going to bed, Jeffries told his parents he was going to announce for Duke. Only to wake the next morning to announce for IU. With teenagers... expect ...the unexpected.

dbmhoosier Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 And just to clarify Mile is far more connected and intelligent than just about anyone on this board. I wasn't meaning to imply anything negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
