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.
