Guest Posted October 16, 2017 Report Share Posted October 16, 2017 Any word on his visit to Chapel Hill over the weekend. I am sure that the atmosphere was much more positive given that UNC took the NCAA to the woodshed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please understand I am not an insider and I don't claim to be so take this with a grain of salt. I am friends with a HS coach (not Romeo's) who passes along recruiting tidbits to me at times that he picks up on because he knows I am a big IU fan and college basketball fan in general. He told me today that with UNC being cleared by the NCAA that their position became a whole lot stronger and they are definitely a contender. I still think we land him, but I have a feeling our real competition for him is going to be UNC. Take all of that fwiw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they were going to be the real competition after Louisville got eliminated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said I have no inside knowledge of what is going on just passing along what I heard. Now that you mention it though, last spring this same guy was saying Kansas would come out on top. He doesn't claim to know 100% what will happen. He just said UNC is a threat now. That was my opinion about them being the top threat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friday, was spent meeting with academic advisers. Saturday, the football game. Sunday was "breakfast with Roy". Romeo's dad loves Roy's laid back approach to practice.

Standard operating procedure on a UNC visit is to try on the team gear and take some pics. You can find plenty of recent pics of guys who put a uniform and a fresh pair of Jordans, but still chose other schools. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly what Rashad McCants said happens there and the other coaches and players ostracized him for it because they didn't want to lose the banner he helped them win.

KDB Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 I know from what i have heard that Romeo's plan was to take unofficials to the schools closer to home, and OV's to like UNC, UCLA, etc.. But shouldn't we be a little worried that he isn't at least atm going to take an OV? He's going to be spending a weekend at these other schools, and for IU he's visiting for one day.. Just something i'd been thinking about. I know he has unlimited UV's, but something tells me that he is going to make an early decision rather than in the spring.

Hoosierhoopster Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 ^^ No, he didn't need to take an OV to IU, it's right here for him, and he's going to be at HH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milehiiu Posted October 18, 2017 Report Share Posted October 18, 2017 Seems to be some confusion, right now about Romeo's visit to IU this weekend. No question it was deemed as an non official visit, when set up. Now.... some are saying it has been changed to an official visit. While others are still saying non official. At this point..... color me confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
