No I love college football. Always have. The coaching was bad. He went way too conservative. That doesn’t detract from the season and what a remarkable job that he did. He deserves a statue outside the stadium.

I get that. There were also opportunities during the game to go for it. Roll the dice. As the media is piling on why talk tough then play scared

Trust me I know. It’s 25 degrees and I’m putting on a suit for a funeral then have to drive to both exes houses to pick up kids
It was a good year. I have a ham that will go in the oven this afternoon. Going to watch some football and enjoy not dealing with idiots at work.
Conservative doesn’t matter if we execute. We didn’t. A missed block and a loss— several. A missed tackle and a 98 yard run. On the road against an excellent team, ya can’t miss blocks and tackles. The biggest game in IU football history and we played like it. ND played like they belonged. We’ll get there too.No I love college football. Always have. The coaching was bad.

It wasn’t working because we were outplayed at the line, playbooks have nothing to do with that. Can you imagine playing for James Madison and then going to the NCAA championship tournament in just 12 months?
When what you’re doing isn’t working you change. You don’t keep doing it. As digressions said every first down was a worthless run. Stop taking fair catches. Do something! Do anything to spark some excitement and energy. Certainly he knew yesterday was a possibility.
I will have no problem at all wanting Tennessee to win.
Oh I think this is gonna burn Cignetti and keep that fire going. Remember this was his first time in this situation too. He will learn.
It will. He’ll have regrets. We won’t make the playoffs again unless they keep expanding. Alabama will get picked over an iu next time. This was the time to throw caution to the wind. That’s why it’s frustrating
Daughter ex wife. Minion baby momma aka THE LOVE OF MY LIFE!!!!!!
Sure playbooks matter. But inorder for them to matter, ya gotta execute.
Cignetti is going to have a huge chip on his shoulder, which I hope can transfer to next year’s team. And that team is going to look a lot different. New portal guys and recruits. I’m getting too old to adjust.
Iu basketball is unwatchable. It’s just an awful product. Incredibly boring. I’d rather see a reality show on that shed. Fball will settle into where it belongs as you say. We don’t have the infrastructure resources history etc to land the 5 stars to compete with the big dogs. That’s okay. 8-4 is still fun. But yes you are running out of time to have that moment. And the bad news. It won’t come through iu. The good news? You can make that moment yourself. You’re retired. Have resources. And are in a great state. Competition BBQ. Spend this winter researching rigs. Spend the next two years learning. Then hone your trade. These competition bbq guys aren’t the brightest bulbs out there. I suspect within five years you can be amongst the elite. And if I were a betting man, get your moment on stage….
Wow, are you off.
Shit. I was just looking into this one. The Big Pig Jig. Targeting 2030 with some smaller competitions in advance. Forget it.
The early 90s teams were outstanding and capable of winning championships. In fact, I think Ted Valentine stole a win from IU in the 1992 Final Four and IU probably would have beaten Michigan, yet again, in the final. The 1993 team was probably even better, but Alan Henderson’s injury derailed them in the Elite 8. When Knight was fired IU had the longest consecutive NCAA appearance streak in basketball and his returnees and incoming Freshmen had IU set up for another championship run.
Even the Kid Down the Hall punked me. Got his J.D. at Maurer and his MBA at ND - “and you’re rooting for the Irish?”
Oh, I know all that. But the slide began after 1987.
Ah, so you have never read 9066, that surprises me. The order authorized the military commanders to remove anyone suspected of sabotage or spying from militarily sensitive areas. That would have included Germans and Italians and Henry Ford.
I don't think it's a controversial take to watch the game and realize the last 5 minutes of offense was much much different then the first 55. It's also not much of a stretch to recognize we should have been attacking the same way at the start of the 3rd quarter.
‘93 was the number 1 team going into the tournament, but Henderson’s injury was too much to overcome. Of course, ‘82 was a what might have been team. If Turner didn’t have his car accident and Isiah hadn’t gone pro it would have been a favorite. Oh well.
“Average” can be okay as long as we’re always competitive and splitting with the top tier programs. Beat osu at home, play well in Columbus and occasionally pull out a victory on their horrible turf.
