This dude is the luckiest SOB on earth. Now back in my day, I could out drink all of you, combine. That does not include Pat Kraft. I have never seen a more raging alcoholic than Pat Kraft some 15-20 years ago. This dude would literally be on the floor of nicks nightly. He would get so drunk he would just mumble and look at you like he should be in a padded room. Him and my buddy "Mule". (he was a football player also go figure) loved each other and would just do drunk noises like a couple injured elephants.

Anyways, I have always got giggles about everyone fawning over him. Guessing he quit drinking like me. lol

Pat looks familiar and I know your buddy "Mule" through a mutual friend.

Is this while he was employed at IU in the Athletic Dept or while he was working on his Master's?

I'm guessing as an undergrad.

He wasn’t an undergrad 15-20 yrs ago & Cavanagh wouldn’t have in bars when PK was an undergrad. I think PK is about 45- that would have made him about 25-30.

Circa 05-07. He would have been in grad school I believe.

Hey….we got Scotty Dolson. Doesn’t get any more visionary than that. Hired two chaperones for Woody’s first season. They left or got fired. The trifecta of coaching.
He’s raising money for IU with a bake sale next month.
Would take Kraft over Dolson. Small time IU.

While it would have been nice to have Thad around for another year, the Butler opportunity came when it did.

Funding is hardly an issue and you would know this if you paid attention.

Separately; What Yonkman, Glass, Harris ect have put together with the innovative HFG program manages the NIL structure while creating awareness and funding for Indiana charities. This model will be replicated by others-focused programs nationally.

I saw that. They were talking about saying screw it and just create fake charities as it is faster. Tell those clowns hi for us.

To me,it makes the whole INL thing seem a tad less dirty.
