Nope.

I just basically got told to piss off and wait for my email. Lol sick.

You the man Eddy.

I don't know enough about the defense to know which position is "harder" to play, but my bet would be that Kamara is placed there - whether that be staying where he is now or the position he played last season - and the hole he leaves is then filled. Someone has to step up either way, but it's nice knowing 6 has experience at his current and Wyatt's positions.

Do we think some OSU donors got confused and maybe thought they were dropping a bag for a football player with All-American/Maxwell Award/Walter Camp Award/Heisman runner-up genes?

Yes, but I have no idea where we’re at on officials. I can barely keep up with basketball recruiting these days, let alone the football chaos. I guess that all would change if his June visit was an official, but I doubt it was.

Commitment status doesn’t really change anything. You can do whatever you want until you sign regardless of a coaching change. Football recruiting is a complete free for all.

I thought one of them was supposed to be really good. Haven’t heard a….Paep out of either one of them*. *I hate myself

On a basketball level, I'm glad the Trees have an assistant with head coaching experience to lead the group. I'm guessing Graves will be laid up for a long time, but I have no idea what that recovery is like. Really scary situation there.

Here's a nugget for the group. When Foster was fired, UCLA brought in a guy named Noel Mazzone as an offensive analyst. Mazzone is a long time assistant coach at all levels and a highly respected offensive mind that is also described as one of Jerry Neuheisel's mentors. If you listen to UCLA folks, they give Mazzone a TON of credit for this stretch of wins and the complete turnaround of their offense, while babyface (and suuuuper personable) Neuheisel gets all the media for it. Guess who was the NC State offensive coordinator in 2003 when Curt Cignetti was the QB coach and also likes to (rightfully) take credit for Philip Rivers' march to the NFL? Noel Mazzone.

Yep agree. Mine was "lower corner". I imagine both of ours means we're in the 100s which should be solid at the UC, but I'll be pretty upset if we somehow get sent somewhere else. I'll be curious to see what happens after they're distributed, but for now decent seats are pretty expensive on secondary markets.

I don't know this for certain, but this one may not be on IU. I'm not sure who's in charge of ticketing for the event, so they may be waiting on seats to get distributed just like everyone that bought them. Overall though, yeah. We struggle heavily in some fan satisfaction common sense/courtesy areas.

I tried to find that same email a couple weeks ago and couldn't. I do think it said "late October or early November" which is absolutely asinine, but they're still technically on time.

Marquette game is 3 weeks from yesterday. Still don't know where I'm sitting. Smiling through it all.

Now we’re talking.

Last week he said, paraphrasing “if they trade me, I’ll go drink piña coladas somewhere.” He doesn’t want to leave.

Good broadcasters are definitely hard to find. Don and Buck are a treat for the blowouts when I get a head start on the long drive home. Listening to Buck laugh like a lunatic as we kept scoring on Purdue last year is a core memory.

Big miss by them. Gameday in Brookings for the Marker game would’ve been electric. That place is awesome.

Love Joel. Gus is lame. Hate his nicknames, his incessant screaming, his love for OSU, his general disinterest in Indiana, and if you really listen he’s clueless about what’s happening on the field.

We can lump him in with the “any CFB player that might find a reason to transfer and also has a brain” group.

We can and almost certainly will do a lot better than that.

Yeah, I got annoyed playing at noon seemingly every week last year, but I’m ready for a nooner. Even more excited that it’s at home so I don’t have to listen to Gus.

Don’t think he missed a play.

I would take a loss at some point along the way if it landed us a round 1 rematch with the Domers in Bloomington.

A couple of red hot B1G teams face off on Big Nine Kickoff next week.
