After Juwan Morgan limped off the floor with three minutes and 30 seconds to play in Indiana’s win over Northwestern, Archie Miller pulled Romeo Langford aside near the IU bench and delivered words of motivation to his star freshman.
Though Langford doesn’t recall the exact conversation – such things can be forgotten in the heat of a close conference game – he clearly got the message.
Langford played arguably his best game as a Hoosier on both ends of the floor – totaling a team-high 20 points on 13 shots to go with five rebounds, two steals, and two blocks – and Indiana needed every ounce of that production.
