Romeo Langford committed to Indiana on Monday after a lengthy recruitment. The five-star guard decided to play for his home team, as he selected the Hoosiers over Kansas and Vanderbilt. And Skip Bayless was right there to dump on it immediately.
Bayless, a Vanderbilt alum, couldn’t resist trolling an 18-year-old kid on the biggest day of his life and tweeted the following:
Hey, Romeo Langford: I respect & understand your decision to stay in state and play for Indiana. But you should've signed with the best school in the country, Vanderbilt, and joined a recruiting class that could've contended for a national championship.

I get that Bayless is a proud Vanderbilt alum, but really? Dude, just shut up. There’s one thing anyone should ever tweet at a recruit: “Congrats on your decision and good luck.” That’s it.
Saying “I respect your decision BUT” means you don’t respect someone’s decision.
For a national media voice to claim a kid should have made a different choice is absolutely ridiculous.
