Paywalled story on On3 contains these quotes. “Indiana was always number one on my list. I had the gut feeling that this was the place when I went up for my unofficial in the spring,” Branham told TheHoosier.com. “I wouldn’t say I was 100% going to commit before hand but when I got to see the things I had questions about it made the decision easier for me.”

I found the video while in the bathroom. Let’s just say I watched so long I looked like a newborn giraffe trying to walk when I stood up

Louis wins!!!! He is eligible the rest of the season. Very helpful for our secondary. The NCAA:

The peegs guys are saying that the OV went very well. Both Ethan and his parents left feeling very impressed. They say the visit solidified IU as a legit contender to land him. IU might be helped by Davion Adkins being a strong Kansas lean.

Per Lasley, Jasai Miles and Nick Dorn are full practice participants. Great news.

Prediction league was a lot easier before we became a football school. Give the opponent 35-42 points and us 7-10 and you'd be damn close every week.

I want Oregon to win Saturday because I don’t want them setting through bye with a loss as well lol.

Felt pretty good about it when the Judge said he’d have a decision back today. You’d assume that if he was gonna end a kid’s career he’d probably at least want to sleep on it.

Bite me, Paul!

For a point guard I'd rather spend that money (plus some) on a 22 year old.

Schwarber with 2 more bombs tonight. Now at 56 for the year. His contract situation is going to be pretty interesting. He’s in his last year. He’ll be 33 before next season starts. He can barely play the field anymore. But he’s having this monstrous year and he’s a straight leader and winner. What’s he worth and to how many teams? Can’t imagine the Phillies don’t re-sign him, but what’s it gonna look like? Maybe 3/90, something like that? Gonna be fascinating to watch.

Opened conference play with a 3-1 road win against Northwestern. First win at NW in a decade.

I have no idea. He was running up and down the aisles, in the rain, high fiving fans.

They chose IU as their Homecoming game? That is so 2023 and earlier.

Wow, That is really, really tempting. Maybe 4 hours from me.

G_d damn—this is the single best college football analysis broadcast I’ve ever seen. As in, next level-PHD level scheme analysis. HIGHLY recommend if yall want to truly get into scheme details. The IU/Iowa analysis begins at about the 32 minute mark.

Won’t return to AZ Compass and is apparently exploring pro options, per Givony. A few accounts are suggesting he’s signing with Partizan, but I can’t find an announcement that sounds fully credible.

I think we will win by 14 or so but looking forward to seeing how the guys handle the road environment. Glad we have this road game prior to the Oregon road game and think the three game progression of Illini, at Iowa and then at Oregon is beneficial (ie much better than starting the BT season with, as an example, a road game at Oregon).

I think what gets under played is the advantage that Coach Cignetti brings to the table. Nobody will ever out prepare him. By kick-off he will have viewed every play that Iowa has ever run and every defensive scheme they have ever played. This might be our first road game this year but our core guys have all played in tough road environments. I expect us to go there and take care of business. Coach Cig is changing the thinking in the B1G the way Coach Knight changed it in basketball.

Taylor, Almond, Anthony Thompson would be a heckuva haul.

Love this commitment- she really looks like a warrior, welcome aboard Gigi!

This is the signee that is well over a 4.0 gpa; so perfect grades plus AP courses. He gets it.

Not really. It’s still around on all sorts of mirrors.

The people discounting us wouldn't know if a football is blown up or stuffed. NONE of them ever played any sport at a level higher than high school JV.

Check this out. This is nuts. And it doesn’t include: Allman Brothers- At Fillmore East T-Rex-Electric Warrior Elton John- Madman Across the Water And I’m sure I’m forgetting others.Got to be the greatest year of music ever.

Reallllly don’t want to be sitting through bye after a loss. Get an early lead and let the defense work.

Iowa doesn't throw it very well, needs to grind out long drives to score, they had 60 fewer yards than Rutgers, allowed 330 passing yards to Rutgers, were only 3/8 on third down, leading receiver had one catch for 42 yards, leading rusher had 68 yards and is out. Indiana held Illinois to 2 yards net rushing, didn't throw a pass after the middle of the 3rd quarter, and allowed only 1 touchdown on a broken coverage. Dropped 2 pick-6's and still won 63-10 in a game that could have been 85-3 against a top 10 (allegedly) opponent. Someone can help me understand how, if both teams play cleanly, Iowa stays within 3 touchdowns of Indiana.

Glad we drew Caroline as NOTHING is more important, essential or entertaining than the sideline reporter during a game. How did we survive “back in the day” without a sideline reporter insightfully asking a coach, losing by 35, if his defense needs to play better.

He’s a Hoosier and a a fighting Illini. The strength coach or whatever knew what he was doing but I don’t have any feelings towards Goode on this one. It’s whatever. He played hard while he was here and wanted to be a Hoosier. I would have been happy to have him back.

On “The Matt Barrie Show,” SEC Network analyst Paul Finebaum expressed that he believes Indiana is genuine this season and should be discussed among the elite teams in the Big Ten. “We do,” Finebaum said. “Nobody made fun of Indiana more than me. I agree with (Joey) Galloway. That probably was the biggest story (Saturday) because I believed in (Bret) Beliemma. Maybe I bought in too much… It wasn’t just a win, it was a complete annihilation. That did a lot for that brand. Indiana will be taken seriously now.”

Mark your calendars

A Woody offer that never went anywhere. Committed to Oklahoma State today.

This is so true

You knew it was going to be a sh*t show not long after he was hired when his gf started to take over the PR part with no experience.

Ditto. I never look at that stuff. Somebody really needs to explain to me exactly what’s fun about that.

Where are you seeing that? Jon Rothstein reported that he missed Steven Pearl’s presser along with a couple others who are rumored to be talking to their agents but also that he has a court date today for a DUI. https://x.com/bmillerg0at/status/1970891796147568855?s=46&t=Fcw6K8fSPVNFaq5-eOwH9w EDIT: Please disregard this. I should have been more careful and looked at the handle name. This is a troll/impersonator and not Jon Rothstein.

Really worried about Iowa more than Oregon. I just think they’re fundamentally sound in the trenches. Hopefully it’s just the chorizo burrito that’s killing me.

Good test before Oregon in 2 weeks

"Whoever controls the past, controls the future. Whoever controls the present, controls the past"

Whoever controls the trenches, controls the flow of the game.

I would like to see Taylor Thompson Almond Alexander -Moody PG?

I imagine we will have a Mendoza under center the next few years

His dad was a fraternity brother of mine at IU. Great guy and great family. Congrats!!
