looking forward to the spring game.
any other open practices.
having finals start the last wk of April really hurts spring on campus imo.
seems more like the end of May back in the day.

The way I heard it (from Tom Allen's interview) , all practices are "open". Now whether that means to HS coaches, friends, and family; or whether that means to anyone off the street I'm not sure, but the way he said it seems to indicate anyone & everyone...

That's how i heard it, too. I was hoping to catch one this weekend.....give me a reason to head down there. (And why I asked originally.) But with the schedule, and falling in spring break, that is not going to happen.
I'm hoping Scott learns to keep his feet moving in traffic and how to treat the football like it was the most important thing in his life while he has it in his hands, AND..., I hope someone shows him some film of Antony Thompson attacking LB's and knocking Them out of the game by exploding up through his thighs and hips on contact, taking the fight to Them, and making Them attempt to avoid contact with Him the next time around...
*Quite frankly, I want to see some serious coaching from Hart...
Given the talent he has to work with we should be looked at as having the among best Running Backs in the country by the end of September...
I hope he earns his pay (and helps teach his young charges how to hang onto the football and pass block versus just his patented stretch the ball out move...).
Hart is a excellent recruiter... It's time he does whatever it takes to become an excellent coach...
///Maybe go visit the KC Chiefs and get some pointers from McCollough...///

I’m not sure how you can make that statement when he turned a freshman possible linebacker into a possible future pro.
Easy...
The kid came in game ready and was still going down too easy and fumbling in critical situations late in the season.
I'll be impressed if he's taught to hang onto the football at all times (especially in key situations) and doesn't allow himself to get tripped up by arm tackles... That's pure coaching by the way...
Not really true there have been many talented guys that did not pan out because they were fumblers. Ball security drills are part of everyday routine you can try to limit fumbles but some guys are prone to fumbling. Also balance is not a learned skill it is inate. There are things you can do to help be more physical running behind your pads, keeping your feet moving on contact, attacking the tacklers back shoulder etc.
Your last sentence is exactly what I'm talking about. Scott was a good freshman running back. To become a "great" back is going to take some coaching. Let's hope he gets it...
Sure is a lot of BEEF developing there. Believe this will soon be an area of strength for IU as older guys play and big young guys get to develop. This year 3 seniors starting (TBD on Devondre Love) then the rest all underclassmen. Pipeline starting!
Cam Jones should be fun to watch this fall. Should be interesting to see how they decide to utilize him.

LOL at dissing the kid who broke ATs records. LOL at dissing his coach.
Tevin Coleman has 225 yards rushing and one TD as a freshman.
I'm not dissing him at all. He's a good one. With some coaching he could be a Great one.
Those two comparisons mean zip. Neither AT or TC had anywhere close to the number of carries Scott got as a true freshman.
He's good just based on raw talent alone. If somebody down there teaches him more than just to reach the ball out at the goal line, he could be Great...
