    PU gets UCLA QB grad transfer

    I like both Plummer and O’Connell. I trust Burton and Alaimo will strengthen the QB room. Wherever they all end up on the depth chart, I just hope everyone stays healthy and we’re not playing half the season with the 4th option again. It’s fun to see young guys grow, but I’d prefer they get...

    Hoosiers Trending For 4-Star QB

    I’m not worry about “hype” at all. Don’t get me wrong, we’re not headed to a playoff game soon, but anyone that won’t acknowledge what he’s accomplished in such a short time simply has their head in the sand. It’s very clear that he has his program trending very well. As you mentioned with...

    Hoosiers Trending For 4-Star QB

    In this thread, Brohm’s integrity has been questioned for recruiting 2 QBs, with different skill sets, in one recruiting cycle (by the way, he’s played multiple QBs every year, ending last year with a 4th stringer) and telling a kid he can see him playing early (he’s had 3 freshmen AAs at...

    Hoosiers Trending For 4-Star QB

    I think both are in a very safe place. Brohm had a down year, record-wise, but it had little effect on the momentum of the program. Recruiting continued to be very strong, attendance was a bright spot (while falling significantly throughout much of the cfb world), and a number of young players...

    Hoosiers Trending For 4-Star QB

    Since you mentioned trust...if you were a QB being recruited by Allen, how much trust would you have in your OC being there more than a year or two? I think that’s a legitimate concern given the turnover. To the early playing time comment, I would argue that that has been something that Brohm...

    Kool aid vs reality

    Almost. 2017 - Lagow threw a pick with the ball on the 17. 2018 - Ramsey threw a pick late in the 4th quarter. IMHO, Allen held the advantage in talent both years. I would probably give IU the edge in that category again this year. We’ll see if he can capitalize this time. We have some nice...

    #1 for Most Hoped for Next Commit: Deontae Craig

    If Holtz is down to IU and Purdue, then you should probably be feeling pretty good. I don’t know that we would have room for him as we are already at 15, with Carr (hopefully) and at least one DT likely coming onboard this fall. There’s not much room left in the small class for ‘20.

    I think most know. I trust that you guys would bring better material.

    Foul or no Foul?

    Well, I am an IU grad so not sure I need another’s approval. Post the definitive angle. Wink wink.

    Painter making 3 stars look like 5 stars Lil Arch making 5 stars look like 3 stars

    A few years ago. Swanigan. About the same time you guys last made the tourney. Congrats on your recruiting. Seems to be paying off.

    IU also hires guys like Sampson.

    True. He chose to sit.

    Mike Sanford, former Notre Dame OC, WKU HC

    IIRC, Brohm brought 6 from his 2017 WKU class and 1 grad transfer, then 1 more grad transfer the following year. 6 is hardly an entire recruiting class, and 2 grad transfers in 2 years is not exactly raiding.

    Brohm staying at Purdue according to Football Scoop

    I’m with you there. My favorite weekends during grad school were those rare ones when I could run up to Purdue for a game and get back in time to catch the rest of IU’s (roommates were with the football team and would leave me a ticket at will-call).

    SIAP...Tom Allen Face to Face

    I caught part of this interview being replayed the other day. It originally aired prior to his first full season. Win or lose, it’s hard not to admire his approach to life and coaching. If you haven’t listened to it, it’s worth the time (IMHO). http://face-2-face.org/tom-allen/

    Actually, I'm a Hoosier as well ('03). Thanks for keeping it classy, though.

    Cheerleader outfits and some thoughts

    I didn't think anyone would be able top the OP as far as offensiveness goes, but this one did it for me. I hope this was just a poor choice of example, but a "facilities upgrade?" Seriously? Can you dehumanize the cheerleaders any more than that? I understand that many view them as just eye...

    Another Example of the "Star" Ratings Often Being Meaningless

    A quick search of 2018 recruits (Rivals database) shows 423 recruits with 4 or 5 stars. There are 1390 3-star recruits in this class. Adding in the 2-star and unrated players, there are nearly 15,000 that are 3-star or less. Assuming the same breakdown as in the original post (26/24), one is...
