dbmhoosier Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I have to think Archie knows he has this one in the bag. Nothing else makes any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is his priority I can see why he would go somewhere where he would be the focal point of the offense. I mean Romeo is twice the player Keion is and we run basically nothing special for him. He plays within the concept of our offense. Keion would just be another guy on the team. We will see which way he goes but the move to LaLu kinda points of him going in this direction. I don't neccesarily read his quote directly as he without a doubt WANTS to be a OAD, but yet he said it is his dream which I think a lot of us can say a dream would to be getting paid millions of dollars in the NBA which is what he said. A lot of players would say that their dream is to be a OAD, but doesn't mean they think they will be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FKIM01 Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I'd love to have Keion but after getting several nice recruits and lots of Indiana guys, Keion would be a great get but not a must-have. Frankly, I think Lander is more of a must-have at this point. Keion would have a great time at IU and be part of a successful blue blood resurgence, but I think IU is a fine team with or without him...just that much better with him. ...but if he'd rather ride Roy's bench like Little, I'll understand.

Two years away from Lander graduating. I think that’s a little early to call almost anyone in that class a must-have. A lot can happen in that time.

At this point, I'm not labeling ANY prospect an absolute must-have. Don't get me wrong, I'd be thrilled to have Keion in candystripes, but Lander is closer to a must-have than Keion is.

Bowhunter Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I want Brooks here . He did get the shaft not being selected as a burger boy. He would be a huge get imo. I hope we get him! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billingsley99 Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I accidentally put this in the Luke Brown thread. Take it for what it's worth, getting it's the same type of diversion TJD had come out. Lately his camp and KB saying all schools in play. Way too much done deal talk to IU wants the suspense. this guy is telling me all smoke screen IU fans nothing has changed. At this point I have no reason not to trust him. Recruiting is fluid but I dont see him anywhere other than IU Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't he the one that once spoke about wearing INDIANA across his chest? Or did I dream that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a Fort Wayne native and NSHS graduate, that's one of the reasons I want him bad. There haven't been any of those at IU Eshaunte Jones is the only one I know of, and he never played a game for them. Having a Fort Wayne guy would be a big inroad in recruiting for IU.

Back in the early 70s there was a guy named Steve Heiniger that came from FW North and played all of 42 minutes spread over 12 games. This would have been the 71-72 season--RMK's first. Don't know any of the details as to why he left after one season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hoosierinbham Posted February 7, 2019 Report Share Posted February 7, 2019 I grew up in Fort Wayne in the 80's and early 90's. Long gap between John Flowers and James Hardy for any Fort Wayne talent associated with IU, I believe. James Blackmon would be the best I can remember. Keion has a chance to be special.

I was mostly referring to NSHS. But, yes Blackmon (Luers), and tragically Hardy (Elmhurst) were both from Fort Wayne. DeKalb doesn't count PU has had success there, most likely because of Roosevelt Barnes. I have lived all over the country, but have a special place in my heart for the Fort.
