3 All Big 10 First Team plus more
- Thread starter Sonap
- Start date
Of course. National coming next.
The good news is that both Fisher and Ponds return next year. How many of the guys listed as SR (not SR+) can return due to the COVID year? For instance, CJ West is a redshirt SR. Jailen Walker is a SR.
Kamara going into the draft as a redshirt JR?

Last year the AP Coach of the Year was released Dec 19th. I would hope Cig gets that one.
One of the best defensive down lineman I've seen is CJ West! Am I the only one that sees his omission as a crime? His constant pressure allowed Kamara many times to make plays.
No chance it's not Cig, IMO. Crazy that we'll have two national COY winners in five seasons.
Main difference is this one can actually coach versus catching lightning in a bottle in a chaotic season.
Let's hope it's not a curse, like before.
C.J. West getting honorable mention shows how deep the D-line talent is in the league, I guess. Although I felt he'd get 3rd team due to Indiana not having the name recognition for the d-line. Honorable mention is a rip, as Red Hornet posted.
A couple other of our guys could have been higher too, but I'm sure all are deserving who made it from other teams.
But West is huge (pun intended) for us.

Awesome to place Kamara, Ponds and Fisher as first teamers!
( Aiden who I was one of who had doubts... Hoped Ponds wasn't too small for the B1G... )

Well, hard to tell if he's really any good, since they rarely throw at him.
Good for Katic getting 3rd team (forgot what list).
That dude is what being a Hoosier is all about. Former 2 star comes in busts his ass and is rewarded with a FANTASTIC senior year, going 11-1, getting the bucket back and going to play in the college football playoffs.
I'm forever a fan of his.

Top Offense in the Big and in the top 2 or 3 in the country and didn’t get one first teamer.
What did we score, 62 or 63 offensive TDs, most in the FBS?
I presume the media voting are idiots but figured the coaches voting would have gaves us better recognition on offense.

I think by the end of the season it was clear that the side of the ball that was the straw that stirred the drink was the defense, even though early it seemed the offense was superior. The defense won the Michigan game and against OSU, if the special teams and offense had played better we could’ve won, because the defense held their own. And holding a B10 team to 67 total yards! That’s just ridiculous.Awesome to place Kamara, Ponds and Fisher as first teamers!

In today's world, a NIL bag could easily keep Kamara in town!!
No surprise here, only surprise will be if he isn’t named National COY.
True, but who really stood out head and shoulders above the others. It was a true team. Whole greater than the sum of its parts.
I'm a TE watcher. I've not seen anything like Horton in a half decade. Effort, energy and execution every play. If there had been a need to target him more the headlines would be broad. He is glue, focused, good foot work, soft hands with dirt under his fingernails is an apt description.
I understand, but a 2nd Senior Day is not out of the question in this day of NIL as he has another year of eligibility.
Fair, but it's a pretty good indicator. He's got 2 years of eligibility left too. I'd love it if he stayed, and I was surprised to see him go through the senior day activities on Saturday.
Maybe exerting a bit of leverage? If so, I say pay the man!
And these are guys we were all concerned if they were good enough to get on the field in Big Ten football!
