He's paying attention.

What a crazy last minute

I know many gag anytime they even see the letters "ESPN" but this was a nice interview by former Alabama QB and current CFB analyst Greg McElroy with IU head coach Curt Cignetti.

A few notes: IU has picked up some "quality commitments" that have not announced yet. Cignetti has seen the level of player interested in IU tick up a notch after the success of last season. "What you did yesterday doesn't really mean squat, you have to prove yourself every day...that's the great part about this business". On scheming with Fernando Mendoza versus Kurtis Rourke: "We'll probably move that launch-point a little more and you'll probably some quarterback run a bit here and there". On the offensive line: "I like our line a lot. I think we've got the potential to be pretty good and I think we can better than last year." Sounded optimistic on Drew Evans' availability. Question on how you keep the running back room happy with so many good players, "I'm not worried about keeping them happy, they have to keep me happy" (HA!).

Good stuff and worth a listen/watch.

Or visits coming up?

Federiko off the board

This thread will contain notes, updates, observations and discussion on IU's high school recruiting. This will be an ongoing thread and separate threads can be added on specific targets as necessary. It's going to be fun to see high school recruiting matter again!

Of course, Dan has opinions about Indiana hiring Darian DeVries as its latest basketball coach. He likes the hire and says just get in there and get to it. "It's not about former player, or candy stripes. It's about leadership and winning."

C'mon Dan, you're 62 years old. It's time to grow up.

I don’t see him in the bench, not that he’s likely to play anyway. Really hope he gets a fresh start elsewhere next season.

still available? Looking at the Portal website there looks to be a few but hard to tell sometimes if he has already signed with another team. Does anyone know if CDD has anyone coming in for visits?

I'll give some credit to Mike Davis, Tom Crean, Archie Miller, and Woody, they all took the high road and maintained positivity after their departures.

pope leo will explain later

he had been their manager for 6 years, Ive never heard of him, used to know all the managers in baseball

Hello,
I wanted to say a few things as we got an update on somethings from Shannon Terry this morning.

1. Thank you all for sending in those reviews. They are being heard.
2. Here are some of the bullet points from today:

6. What happens to Rivals fan sites?​

They will remain on the Rivals platform, supported by our infrastructure and resources. Users will gain access to premium content across both Rivals and On3, increasing subscription value. In cases with two strong sites for the same school, we will cross-promote or bundle/merge strategically.

7. How does this affect On3 and Rivals subscriptions?​

All On3 members will get full read-only access to the entire Rivals network—including premium articles and message boards. The same applies in reverse: Rivals members now have read-only access to the full On3 network.

In markets where we have two strong fan sites for the same team, we will block access to the competing site’s premium content to protect site value and community dynamics.

However, we’re offering a $60 annual bundle upgrade that allows users to unlock both sites in these situations, including posting access on both message boards in approved and applicable markets.

10. When will these changes take place?​

The transition will happen over the next few months, with a target date of July 1, 2025, for full integration.

By that time, we expect subscriptions, fan site operations, and backend systems across On3 and Rivals to be fully aligned and operational under the new structure.

This one is tougher than the offense to project just based on the different personnel they'll roll out based on matchup/ scheme.

FS: Ferrell
SS: Boykin
ROVER: Moore

CB: Ponds
CB: Gandy

LB: Fisher
LB: Hardy/ Jones

DE: Kamara
DT: Wheeler
DT: Tucker/ Ratcliffe
DE: Daley/ Wyatt

Safety is the interesting one, as is the DE rotation opposite of and behind Kamara. Lots of faces at LB will have to step up with increased snaps as well but it's clear they like the group.

Thoughts/ edits from folks?

for another year that he might me included in DeVries staff. He was very talkative, enthusiastic on the floor and is loyal to a fault to IU basketball.

TJD had a great game last night (shot 100%!) for the Warriors: 15 points on 6/6 shooting with 6 boards and 1 block in just 19 minutes. Dude hustles on every possession. I know this has been mentioned before but his athelticism sneaks up on you. He threw down an alley-oop on a pick and roll that was elite, drawing OHHHHHsss! from the crowd (and announcers). His ball handling seems to have improved a great deal, too, with him bringing the ball up the court on several instances. His passing remains top-tier. Great to see him get some minutes, despite the circumstances. Love the beard.
