Langford
-
We also don’t know what degree his concussion is, but he wasn’t knocked out. He hit that knee pretty hard though and in a bad spot. Don’t mess w/those anymore.

Here is a good site to visit if you have spare time. You can click on the various headings such as scoring rebounding and so on and take a look at the various statistics. Some of the numbers will surprise you and players that we think are not playing that well have pretty decent numbers.

Eric Bossi says that Ku & Vanderbilt are separating themselves from Indiana - -for Romeo Langford/
Another poster stated: Logic dictates the reason he is waiting - - Waiting to see what happens with Vick. - - No reason for Langford to wait as far as a decision to sign with Vanderbilt OR Indiana - - makes sense - -If Vick comes back - -then no looks like wouldn’t come - -If Vick leaves - - looks like might be game on. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
KU definitely has a really good chance if Vick goes.
-
The way Vick is playing, I wouldn’t expect him back. He’ll at least declare.
Newman is a weird case. We have room for him next season if he wants to come back. Could easily play Dotson/Newman/Grimes in the backcourt. But I’d be very surprised if he came back. Not sure what he can do, other than convince NBA teams he can run the point.
-
Bossi said today that Langford is still really open to all 3 schools, and that KU is in an interesting spot since the backcourt could be VERY crowded.
-
The way Vick is playing NOW I think we stand a great chance of him coming back. - Well I mean IF he were playing. - I had to ask people last night if he was on the floor - he has just pulled a vanishing act. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@Jayballer54 The way Vick is playing now I do not want him back. The obvious choice would be to take a veteran senior over a freshman, but Vick has lost his mojo, intensity, and want to. He has less than a half season to reverse that trend. If not, give me a new face that wants to come in and prove himself.
-
@Big-Clyde52 Did Vick start dating the crazy girl again?? Something is up with him.
-
@Barney Not to my knowledge. As far as I know he is not hurt either. He just seems to be playing tentative or scared for some reason. He has great athletic ability but for whatever reason he does not seem to want to force his will on the opponent. Maybe he developed some type of mental block. Early on he looked like a candidate for all Big 12 selection, then when conference started he regressed quickly. If he could shake out of this funk it would be a huge boost to the team. Still time for that to happen.
-
Now, Vick does have the yips.
-
Staff visiting Romeo again.
-
KU coaches will be at his game tonight
-
Reading the tea leaves, and from a couple people I’ve talked to around IU, KU should get Romeo if there’s a role. If for some weird reason Vick leaves and Newman comes back, I think we get Romeo. We move Newman to the role Charlie Moore would’ve had, and start 3 of Newman, Grimes, Dotson, and Langford.
-
Newman is in the process of turning the corner on his season. Depending on how this goes, Newman could vault himself into the first round.
-
@justanotherfan yeah… that’s not happening.

He retweeted a few tweets about Self being there. Doesn’t really mean much but obviously these kids care. We should keep showing up as much as possible.
-
Newman was at one time an elite level talent as a three level scorer. If he continues to score 15+ and does so reasonably efficiently, the people that projected him as an OAD may be convinced that his skillset will translate. Newman was an elite player, evaluated higher than some guys currently in the NBA out of HS, including a lottery pick from last year in Luke Kennard.
-
Oh I know he was. I can’t think a team at the back of the first is looking at Malik and valuing him more than a guy like Mitchell Robinson, Landry Shamet, Brandon McCoy, or Hami Diallo.
-
the video of romeo from the staffs visit makes you think we have to get this kid at any expense. I know the Sr vs OAD arguement but Romeo is just plain a better basketball player
-
just read the latest interview from Romeo’s dad about his recruitment:
This came from a Indiana recruiting site ( Inside the hall) - -Tim Langford was ask about any update on Romeo recruitment. - He said that they were probably going to make a visit to Vanderbilt, probably won’t see a game, just get down to the campus watch them practice because it was within their range.
He said as far as KU , we won’t make it out there, We just pretty much watch them play on TV. -( BUT if you’ve been following his recruitment - -we already knew this ) - -Romeo has been here already.
He said things that they look for are like - -how teams will guard other players, - -how the Coach reacts coming out of a timeout , plays that are set up and such.
When asked about anything on announcement Romeo’s dad said , he told Romeo when they had a game on ESPN that if Romeo had decided and wanted to announce that would be a good time - -he also mentioned it would be a really good time when Family and everyone was in Atlanta for the McDonalds All star game in March if he was ready that would be good with all the family being there , it kind of sounds like that Romeo’s dad would really like to see him announce then possibly - but he said if not then they could still just wait until April.
He was asked - -they asked him they said about how much was real about Garland trying to talk to him about coming to Vanderbilt - -how Grimes talked to him about coming to KU - and then some Indiana player talking to him about Indiana and package deal?
He said wasn’t sure about how often Garland talked to him - - But he did know that he communicates with Grimes because of the summer we had and that they had got close.
Said what they look at more though is who is coming back ( - -hmmmmm - -VICK ) Who is coming in ( - -hmmm , as mentioned before - - -Grimes ) - said they pretty much like all 3 Coaches & styles - That was the main part and really not about a package deal.
Kind of funny in the comments where Indiana fans giving their input about WELL KU is out cause Romeo not visiting lol - -he has already been here , or that KU was to far from home - -really sad - -I like our chances - -I really like our chances if Vick leaves. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

The comment section in that update was some kind of stupid. wow.
Dad certainly wants him to announce with all the family planning to go to Atlanta. I don’t see him doing it then but something to keep our eye on
-
Langford dropped 63 points with 16 boards
Sign him up Bill

His hair game is starting to resemble the ridiculous mop Brian Bowen has
-
The competition level was certainly not good.
Has great form on his shot.
-
Romeo said today he’ll probably announce at or a little after the McDonald’s game. Doesn’t bode well for us IMO.
-
As of today Vick’s stock has dropped and it looks like he is going to make a return.

Not sure how I feel about this. Do you have any word on who is leaving the program to make room for Agbaji?
-
@BShark In order of likelihood: Newman, Vick, Doke, Sam
-
@Statmachine really depends on what Vicks camp is thinking. Does a return actually improve his stock? They might be ready to move on and start getting paid to play

That would be nice wouldn’t it? Self definitely knows.

Unfortunately New Albany lost tonight so now Langford will focus on recruiting and all star games.

Don’t you wish kids see it that way
-
@BeddieKU23 Boy do I. - -but their minds change as fast as a Kansas Weather forecast. - A lot of them don’t see the broad picture. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I’m not sure what the weather is like in Kansas but where I live it was 75 one day, 20 the next with 6 inches of snow and then we got 3 Nor’easter’s in a week and on the first day of spring it was 7 out this morning
-
@BeddieKU23 I sure feel for you with those storms - hear there is suppose to be a monster storm heading to Boston this Weekend - One reason WV left on their trip a day early so they could get there
There is a saying here in Kansas. - If you don’t like the weather wait for five minutes it will change lol. - Have seen multiple times where it was raining it’s ass off on one side of the street and nothing on the other side with sunshine.- -Of Course we have our Tornados been through 2 F-5"s don’t want to go through anymore. -Wind can flat blow you away- -you just never know what your going to get - -same way with a 17 - -18 yr old kid trying to make a decision - -he can and a lot of times will change his mind at the drop of a hat lol. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Sounds very similar then. It looks like where I live will miss the storm for the most part. I know everyone is sick of snow especially as we hit the end of March here.
With Langford I think he’s taking a very deliberate and patient approach. I don’t think he’s staying in-state and has done the right thing overall. Indiana fans have taken his recruitment to extremes and it will be funny to see the meltdown if he goes to KU or Vandy
-
@BeddieKU23 We had between .05-.10" of rain last night. First moisture since mid-October. Nearly a record. My poor boy loves snow and we haven’t had snow stick around for more than a day or two in years. So rub it in why don’t cha?

@BeddieKU23 I think next winter I will get some fine spray nozzles and make my own snow machine. I can’t change the weather, but I will make it snow next season!
