Yea he seems like he fits Allens mold well from a philosophy standpoint. Loves to coach, teach and learn.He did mention the intermediate passing game in a quick sentence during the interview. I liked to hear that because I always felt like Debord's medium passing game was the weak part of his offense. That's why many of us were jonesing for the medium passing game of the Wilson era....
We've got a couple good tight ends in Peyton Hendershot and the big ole kid from Chicago..Ivey? I liked what Hendershot showed last season, he could be very good.Yea he seems like he fits Allens mold well from a philosophy standpoint. Loves to coach, teach and learn.
As far as the offense goes I think we will look like we always have as far as lining up in the spread. I mentioned in another thread the thing that stuck out in Fresno's stats was 55 balls to the TE. So when you mention that intermediate passing attack I hope we see alot of that.
Yeah, I think Ivy could be good but also like Bjordsen (sp?) the other freshman. I think those guys could be good and I love me some tight end involvement.We've got a couple good tight ends in Peyton Hendershot and the big ole kid from Chicago..Ivey?

I'll admit, I was very skeptical about his hire at first. I guess that was largely because I didn't know too much about him and his offense looks very close to a Debord offense.
That's not all a bad thing. If this guy can refine the passing aspects of the offense, it's actually a good thing. I remember Shane Wynn running fairly detailed medium to long routes under Wilson and he really shined doing that. If this guy can get Whop doing that, then great! Whop is the guy that needs to be The Guy in the passing game this fall.
Yes, I would love to see defenses trying to figure out if it’s Whop, or a TE or Stevie coming at them and having to pick which poison to cover.I'll admit, I was very skeptical about his hire at first.

Definitely understand what you're saying, but come crunch time with the IU/UM game in the balance, Whop or someone needs to be able to be The Guy who takes it to the house.Do we need or want someone to be The Guy?
Wouldn't it be more productive and harder on the defense if we had 4, 5 or even 6 guys that on any one play could be The Guy?

We need guys like Cody Latimer and Kofi Hughes. It's not hard to imagine Westbrook and Hale tandeming together to produce similar numbers. Just go back and watch their career highlights on YouTube, their circus catches were truly amazing.
An example of Whop being the guy is his long touchdown scamper during the Michigan State game. He took a short completion and turned it into a 70 yard touchdown run.
Steady improvement, rain man, is the key. It wasn't that long ago when IU was dead last (or next to last) in conference recruiting. We're moving on up!Sounds like a good coach and fit for the program. Anyone know if he is a good recruiter? Until IU can flip the field and start bringing in classes higher up in the conference don’t know how they will be able to move higher than past Rutgers, Maryland and Illinois. Coaching is great, but we need better jimmys and joes than the other big ten teams to get past them.
We have multiple 4 stars and a ton of 3 stars. That's what you see for most successful programs outside of OSU, Bama, etc.Sounds like a good coach and fit for the program.
