And there was a time in the not too distant past when IUFB Twitter might have posted the exact same thing.

Oh yeah, a 6’7” athlete with present skill and a ton of projectability is a great get every time. -

Congrats to the young man and welcome. Side note: Kid’s upper body looks nothing like that. -
The extent to which Texas has just quit playing and is just stumbling to run out the clock is something.
-
One of the under-appreciated great things about this IU team is DB’s that freaking tackle. Watching Texas’s DB’s calculating how to get a ball carrier on the ground without actually having to hit them and missing a million tackles as a result makes me love a 175lbs Ponds tackling guys all the more.

You’re 100% right and that’s the common sense viewpoint because this is flat out the reality now. I just can’t get there yet. There are a lot of devils in college sports just now and for me Pavia’s one of them. Suing for JC years being dumped against eligibility? Spare me, of course they should count. And in football it’s worse. The 1st time some 25yo 6th yr growna$$ man LB busts an 18yo true freshman WR in half on a slant pattern and does a Darryl Stingley on him because that kid’s not physically ready for that yet that’s gonna be on the Jay Bilas’ of the world who’ve been advocating for this nonsense like a Pavia is somehow the real victim. Sorry, rant over.

Normally would reliably root hard for a Vandy over a Texas. But I so loathe Pavia and the whole 6 year 25 year old college guy thing that I find myself absolutely wanting Texas to stomp’em.

Rhett Lashlee is apparently signing an extension with SMU. Seems to be a lot of that going around. Tell ya what, no idea which school it’ll be, but by the time the musical chairs are all filled in this cycle one of the power conference AD’s is gonna be rolling out a really, really underwhelming hire. LEO, anyone?

Exactly what I thought! -
https://www.thedailyhoosier.com/maryland-coach-says-he-chose-not-to-pay-iu-footballs-roman-hemby-kellen-wyatt/ Nice read from Schumann. Locksley suggesting he could have kept Hemby and Wyatt if he’d been willing to “overpay” them really galls me. It’s not “overpaying” Coach, it’s what the market will bear. I really hope Hemby drops about 200yds on them.

Been thinking about this a fair bit: If Cig hadn’t done what he’s done, say 5-7 last year and trending to 7-5 this year, something like that, how many of these guys would have actually been fired at this point rather than just being under pressure? Kelly, Franklin, Napier, hell , even Pittman, would they have just been straight cut loose mid-season? I find it pretty hard to believe they would. But these donors and AD’s see this guy turn a dreck program into THIS and they look at their guy and say WTH. Cig is literally ending careers. Dude’s the Grim Reaper.

https://x.com/insidethehall/status/1984025559710757007 Announcing at 3:30ET streamed on the Bella Vista YouTube page, per Alex. -
When was Cig’s extension announced, couple of weeks ago? And at signing it made him, what, the 5th highest paid coach in the country, something like that? By New Year’s Day he won’t be in the top 10. Pretty nuts.
-
Apparently could only say no 49 times. Va Tech Twitter certainly thinks he’s a done deal. Like that fit for both of them.

Per Schumann, Dorn is expected to be cleared for full go and could play game 1.

(2026) - C Arafan Diane to Houston

Wouldn’t think so. They’ve gotten Alexis a fair number of post looks in the exhibition games and he’s stopped the ball some, but Diane is a completely different animal. Haven’t watched any WVU games from last year but I feel pretty confident DDV had a package designed to get Hansberry post touches. And if Diane isn’t a fully conventional fit for what he wants to do I would guess they’ve looked at him and they just don’t care. Would bet in a full season of college games he wouldn’t run into 5 kids with any chance to guard him without help. So as long as he can make good post reads he’ll get other kids open looks. -

Ahmed, the G-League kid, is planning to announce 11/10. Visiting Houston this weekend and BYU next weekend. -
There’s a reason our 2 best players are our 2 best players. Snickers is in its own tier.
