Dasan McCullough

He is looking for a participation trophy rather than a leadership award.
Easily the most overrated kid and player I’ve seen in 15 years.
Guess you never saw Sampson James. At DM has actually played his first 3 years. James has some serious commitment issues.
To be fair, he had 4 sacks as a freshman at IU. He was quite injury prone at Oklahoma. He definitely hasn't shown the high end talent though.
The younger brother, Daeh, who was said to be even better is currently at 4th string at Louisville.,
Oh, they certainly did and there were claims that “little brother was even better.” There was an article that was written indicating also that Daeh was the highest ranked recruit in IU history, surpassing his brother who was the highest ranked recruit when he signed the year prior.
Now, Dasan is on his 3rd school and Daeh is buried at 4th string at his 2nd school.
Hindsight is always 20/20, particularly when Dasan never quite materialized as the dominant force people thought. He had injuries at Oklahoma and rotated in and out. Daeh was at one time the #2-3 kid in the state. They were both pretty comparable in their evals and never quite lived up to the hype.
IU football picks up top-100 commit from 2023 DB Daeh McCullough, son of RB coach Deland
Indiana picked up its highest rated pledge in program history on Tuesday afternoon. And he is a familiar face. Bloomington, Ind. based safety Daeh McCullough committed to Tom Allen and IU. He is …

He was the 5 star kid from Indiana who transferred to Iu from Florida? He was over hyped!
Deland? He’s the best RB coach in the country. He’s improved every room he’s touched. His sons haven’t panned out but that’s not an indictment on his ability to coach.
Further cements CCC’s preference for production over potential.
No, that was Jerimy Finch... funny thing, his son, Jerimy Finch Jr. is a 5.8 rating 4-star for the Class of '26 at Warren Central.... DE / 6-2 / 240lb.... He's already been offered by tons of majors... Michigan, Tenn, Wisc, Oklahoma, Mich St.... ND is the projected leader
IU too.
I hope his head is screwed on better than his dad's was....
Speak for yourself. Deland’s resume as a position coach is impeccable.
Indiana 2011-2016, 2021: sent 3 RB’s to the NFL (Houston, Coleman, Howard) and a 4th (Devine Redding) ran for 1000+ yards in back to back seasons. Coleman ran for 2000+ yards in 2014 (school record) and Howard/Redding both ran for 1000+ yards each in 2015
USC 2017: in his lone year at USC, Ronald Jones ran for 1550 yards, 19 TDs and was 1st team All-PAC12 and a 2nd rd pick
Notre Dame 2022-present: Audric Estime ran for 2400 yards and 29 TD’s in 22/23 and is currently a playing for the Broncos. Notre Dame currently has the best backfield in the country and both Love and Price will play in the NFL. Love will be a preseason Heisman candidate and potential first round pick in 2026.
Also won a Super Bowl as RB Coach for the Chiefs.
I conjecture that part of McCollough’s departure (the dad) had to do with Allen’s inability to dismiss our line coach, when it was clear that the unit was getting worse over time. Hard to coach RBs when the run blocking was nonexistent.
That and he was pissed after being passed over for Walt Bell for the OC opening once Sheridan got the boot.
Hmm, didn't know that. Thx. But even any high school coach shuld've been pissed. I don't blame him, lol.
Tom made some head scratching staff decisions the last few years, that helped lead to getting fired. (I'd love to get 'fired' for that level of bank.)
Cignetti, while I wouldn't say 'ruthless' seems to me will not let liking a guy or even long term relationships allow substandard work. I think he's on top of it.
