Rourke named BiG Co-Offensive Player of the week

Rourke now becomes the first Hoosier to earn multiple Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week awards since 2020, when Ty Fryfogle did so in back-to-back weeks. He's also the first Indiana quarterback to earn multiple Big Ten Offensive Player of the Week honors since Nate Sudfeld did so twice during the 2015 season.

Heading into Indiana's bye week, Rourke currently leads the Big Ten in passing yards (1,752), passing touchdowns (14), yards per attempt (10.9) and passer rating (192.1).

Gambling - 5 games in a row this same parlay has hit for me:

IU to cover, the over, and Rourke for over 250 yards passing. Nebraska won't stop this from happening for a 6th straight game, and you have 2 weeks to figure out how to bet online and share in this parlay with me. I was feeling lucky on Sat and put together this 7 legger: IU to cover, the over, Lawton and Ellison each for 25 yards rushing, Sarratt for 40 yards receiving, and IU to score over 27.5. Vegas hasn't figured IU out yet and these player yardage bets added to my parlays have been easy $$. Pulled out $1000 in winnings Sunday. Anybody else been winning $$ on our Hoosiers? Any bets anyone have been using that have been hitting regularly?

Social media

It cracks me up to read the comments on FB about how we are 6-0 because we haven’t played anyone.
They don’t realize that under previous coaching staffs we would be probably 3-3 or maybe 4-2 at best.
We went from beating Akron at home in 4 OT’s last year to 6-0,I don’t care who it’s against.
But I don’t have the time or energy to explain that to the haters.
Some people just can’t stand to see other people happy.
Maybe after we beat Nebraska it will shut them up but probably not.

Indiana’s overall PFF grade is No. 3 in the nation, behind only Ohio State and Miami, Fla.

Through six games, Indiana’s overall PFF grade is No. 3 in the nation, behind only Ohio State and Miami (Fla.). Their overall offense is second, and their overall defense is 14th.

Must be excellent coaching.

Private charitable donations to public high schools

I find this phenomenon bizarre. It's now going on at my school. A neighbor was invited to a mixer that turned out to be a fundraising networking event. These people are looking for people to donate between $100k-$500k. To my kid's public high school. They said it's a more "progressive" way to fund the school's $250 million renovation that was voted on and somehow they want private funding to cover part of the cost.

Here's an earlier example:


The same guy told me that some billionaire graduate from this high school offered to pay the whole $250 million if they'd name the school after him. And our board flatly declined. WTF???
