My favorite IU game to watch. If the rumors are true RMK started the practice before the UNLV game with them running the break and Alford hit a 3 on one of the first trips down and RMK stopped practice and said that’s it. Practice over

I keep hearing that our defense is subpar. Examples given are the first teams inability at times to stop second team and even managers from scoring. So while it was nice to see the clips of us scoring I have to admit to wondering how we will do vs tough D. I am hopeful that our D can be tough because the coaches will demand effort on that side of the ball. That, for me, seems to be the backbone of how much success we can have.

Procedure went well. Back home. Hoping it keeps things right for a long time.

I found myself incredibly light headed this weekend and eventually went to the ER. Seems my heart is in Afib. New for me, but brother and both parents dealt with this. Drs seem optimistic and I have a procedure tomorrow to shock in back into rhythm. Drs are all optimistic but I am a bit discouraged tbh. Have been able to drop about 30 lbs this year and got my BP down from high to normal as a result. So to have this set back is frustrating. I am not sure how this will impact things but we had hoped to travel back to IN this weekend to see our new grand daughter. Then the next 2 weekends to watch our daughter play soccer (we only get to see about 1/3 of her games in person). So I know I should be thankful it is not a major problem but getting in shape, dropping weight, changing diet was supposed to help keep this stuff at bay right. Would appreciate your prayers for patience, thankfulness and quick healing.

He was supposed to but cig said he got caught

I know we are a football school now but would have expected more info and discussion after a big get. Any chance he reclassifies

Can you ask him next time if I can trade my autographed Archie ball for a DD one

What happened

Could they have done the same by selecting a successful lower level coach though. Someone who has had a track record of success at the D2 or NAIA level. Perhaps not, and I assume they think this staff would have much better instate relationships than the prior, which is possible.

This hire made no sense if you want to compete. A friends daughter plays at Ball State and they were not at all sad to see him go. I like the assistants as they built a strong program at IWU and have good instate connections but I was hoping for someone who has had a track record of success. Even if at a lower level.

Thanks for posting that. I wondered how Rourke’s first game was. Good to see a progression with him too.

Rourke was incredibly accurate and “made the layups” consistently. Hopefully Mendoza settles in better. Several of his throws could have been picks. The offensive line needs to start winning at the goal line. Hoping for a convincing second half.

This was cool https://www.facebook.com/reel/1083806637287066?fs=e&fs=e

Praying for him and the doctors. Keep us posted so we can follow and keep praying.
