CapnRon Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 To me it seems like the coaching staff and being close to home are the big things in our favor. I really hope we get to root for this kid next year. It's going to be fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wasn't meaning to imply anything negative. I do appreciate the compliment. And don't want to ever disappoint you, or any other member in the future Quite honestly, I am taken aback by your words. And truly appreciate them. Thank you. I do what I do. Only in the interest of Good Old IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his latest quotes make it seem that he cares about the NBA, not the campus. And you know, if that's the case, good luck to him. I want recruits that want to focus on winning games for IU - not using us as a springboard to go play in the NBA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I think Romeo is ready for the circus to be over. Every all star game he goes to means another endless round of questions. My read on it is that he's tired of the questions and he's tired of being on the road. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously it’s not as good as if he did visit, but maybe his schedule is busier than he thought it would be. I have no clue honestly. Wouldn’t be shocked if he picked any school. As some stated, at this point anything that anyone thinks they know are guesses and rumors. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drroogh Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Have to admit, my mind doesn't work like most peoples so bear with me as I think out loud on the keyboard. I have trouble following myself a lot. These are just my thoughts without any info. Romeo decided a long time ago, that he was going to wait until after all of the silly season stuff was over to decide on a college. Coaching carousel, early entrants, transfers, etc. Sounds very reasonable to me. Him not deciding earlier, does not exclude any of his current choices, it was always his plan.(Just Guessing here) He is now saying he knows everything he needs to know, so visits are unnecessary. I would hope he knows by now! But why the change from saying he was going to visit IU? Has he gotten some insider info of his own? The homer in me, says after talking to Cam Reddish about playing with Jake Forrester, he has decided concerns about next years IU front court have been dissuaded. Now he just has to go back and do his pluses and minuses thing to decide from three very good options. Meaning even he doesn't know where he's going yet!

milehiiu Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Don't kill the messenger.....me. And don't ask me who the messenger is.... because, I won't tell. Only substantiated by one source. Not double sourced, like I like to have. Yet can't get any closer than this. A Watford in home reveals how close IU feels they are to landing...... Romeo. Now... have I said... Romeo is an IU lock ? No. Does IU feel they have locked up Romeo ? No. However, what I am saying is, as of today....IU feels good about landing Romeo. Edit: And I forgot to add....the in home with the Watfords went very, very good today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After playing with those guys in the All Star games he has decided that Archie and Ed offer a great coaching tandem and that playing with all these guys with the same goal as he is going to lead to problems having enough balls for everyone. His buddy RP, a Senior Morgan, and the IU coaching staff seal the deal for IU. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danomatic Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 Personally, I feel like it’s been Indiana for quite some time. Say what you will about the indecisiveness, but he wanted to and has enjoyed this recruitment to it’s fullest. The basketball people from the area that I know, now believe it’s Indiana. Once again, they haven’t heard it from him, nor Tim Langford, but that’s the word on the street. He’s over it and ready, but I feel like he still needs to reaffirm his decision, without any distractions. Yeah, you could read into the Kansas kids leaving just about as much as the Vandy kids getting “creaned.” However, IU has had his spot ready from day number one and he knows that and has known all along. if he were to choose another school, I wouldn’t be shocked per se, but I would be surprised. I’m about as confident as can be and believe he’s going to IU. The way he talks in detail about the Indiana staff speaks for itself. Don’t panic, there’s much worse things in life to worry about than some kid’s college basketball decision. But I believe now more than anytime before, he’s headed to Bloomington.

Tru123dt Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I just love how recruiting plays out. Over at the Kansas board on scout, a poster is claiming that Romeo is going to announce the first week of May for Kansas from his reliable source. Let it be the battle of the sources!

Bowhunter Posted April 7, 2018 Report Share Posted April 7, 2018 I don’t like the timing of Romeo not visiting and Kansas players declaring for the NBA. However, I’m still holding out for a little bit of hope that he still anounces in New Albany open to the public. Vandy doesn’t scare me as much now but Kansas does. Still think it’s odd that a recruit would pick a school that far away and not go on a visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
