It really has been a perfect scenario for IU. Hire a winning coach who changed their entire mindset and culture. Couple that with a SOS in the low hundreds (some of which is bc they bought us out), and here you go. Its honestly very similar to what Brohm did last year minus a few speedbumps. I am VERY interested in seeing the OSU vs IU game next weekend! If they are at least competitive in that game, then I will give them a lot more credit. Lose by 3 TD's or more........nah! FTR, I have been critical of IU since their 6-0 start!!

Cignetti has been a winner ever;ywhere he has coached. Its not a far stretch to think that he can't do the same thing at IU given some resources. That's what you do, get fans believing again and the recruiting follows.

HS players don’t have near the leverage they used to.

As far as IU, they have to prove they aren’t a one hit wonder. And as we have learned, that is going to be a steep hill to continue this year’s kind of success.

I don’t see them as a 1 hit wonder being the fact they haven’t beaten anyone. Give them credit for going undefeated so far but if they get trucked, like expected, by OSU then no way they should be even near the playoffs imo.

According to the ACC injury report listed for this weekend, Turner is listed as probable and expected to play against Stanford. Not sure how reliable their sources are.

Did you end up going? If so how was it?

I did, both that night and Monday. It was great, enthusiastic fans there. I'd recommend it. I'd like to go to the Jeff Brohm show, but I'm too lazy to drive all the way to Fern Creek!

Not surprised been rumblings it was going to happen. High school recruiting is awful but can’t wait to see the data on how many classes stay together for 4 years. The attrition rate has been high even before transfer rule change 50-60 percent. I bet it changes to 20-30 percent in the future.

Players will get poached and players will shift to lower levels to get playing time.

The percentage of freshman that see the field in year 1 is probably less than 5-10 of the class.

Retain the current players that are impact players

There is nothing wrong with losing to a really good team. It works both ways youare never as good as your best night and never as bad as your worst night. It is also normal considering how bad Louisville has been for fans, including me to over react.

We will see my main concern is this team athletic enough to run his stuff against better team. Test 1 they couldn’t which means they have to all the little things screens, block outs and hard cuts correctly.
