    You miss the part about putting guys in the NBA? How many players that went to IU start in the NBA? How many for Purdue? Recruits know who has the history and where NBA players went to school.

    Results drive/push narratives, especially for 17-18 year old recruits. (in the mind of a prospective recruit) Purdue has the best offense in the B10 the last few years? Well how far has that gotten them in the tournament? Purdue is the best at developing talent? How many players are making a big...

    Seems like nearly everyone posts about IU/Romeo. (See above). What’s your point?

    Don't forget about his infatuation with Alford.

    Being better on a one off night does not attribute to playing at a higher level. Sorry

    To be fair he said they would not only be better than MSU, but MSU at best would finish in 7th place in the B10. That’s why he took a lot of grief. They’re hot right now but they’re still 5 games under .500. No doubt Illinois is on the rise and I think most people at the beginning of the year...

    Illinois is going to be VERY good in the next year or two, especially if they keep Ayo. Will give Mgk some credit for being this high on them although he’s about a year premature. But a scrappy team like Illinois playing with nothing to lose is going to be a headache opponent from here on out.

    To Nojel's Mom....and to the posters that dare to blame anyone player!!

    Well duh, it's natural for a parent to react that way. But this setting is different. This is an anonymous message board with varying degrees of opinions that most people can look at objectively even if it is constructive criticism and that's because most poster on here don't have a dog in the...

    Might still be the most talented high school player from Indiana. What a waste he was in the pros.

    My simple advice: an anonymous message board isn't the place for you.

    Crean bagged a Goose

    Kids gonna average 30 shot attempts a game next year. Wasn't going to get half of that at UK or FSU.

    What hype? Most people on here projected Romeo would average 10-12ppg a game shooting less than 40% from the field. He’s not only one of the highest scoring freshman in all of college basketball, he’s one of the highest scoring players in the B10. I’d say Romeo has performed to expectations at...

    So he’s overrated because you say he is? Never mind the countless # of mock drafts who say he isn’t overrated and is going to be a lottery pick? Guess I’ll take your word for it.

    Trouble in Tucson...

    But nothing is going to happen between now and the 4 months before Zeke is due on campus, at least in terms of NCAA rulings. And Arizona's coach isn't even going on trial. He plead guilty to federal bribery charges (not necessarily an NCAA violation). Without him going to trial, there's a very...

    But you act like Indiana chose between Romeo and then Henry and Wieskamp. Who is to say Indiana can't get another 5* for 2019 (Brooks is in play still) or another solid 4 year player. Hell Indiana nearly had Henry and Romeo together and likely would have had Henry had Damezi and Hunter not...

    He's had chances early in the year when guys like Durham and Green and McRoberts were out with various injuries. It's not like Damezi was't ever given a chance? IU plays a 3 guard set every game. It's not like Damezi is stuck only behind Romeo Langford.

    That's a very good point. If you're going to land a once in a blue moon 5* and don't do anything than yeah it's probably a waste. But IU is bringing in at least one 5* in TJD next year and possibly a second with Brooks. If you're replacing a 5* with another 5* then yeah, I don't think the trade...

    There's been plenty of opportunity for Damezi to earn his playing time. IU has used heavy dosages of Durham/Green/McRoberts as a third guard paired with Phinisee and Romeo. He hasn't played because he's atrociously defensively. I don't buy the narrative that Romeo is halting Damezi's development...

    See I disagree with that. While Romeo may appear to not give a crap, you still can't deny his abilities to change a game. There aren't many players in the country, let alone freshman, who can go out there and give you 22 points on 11 shot attempts. That's just the reality. But at the same time I...
