  Most competent coaches get it done within a few years provided they have the pieces in place. Wilson built this team from scratch, so he was given the benefit of the doubt for an extended period (similar to Crean), but now that the team is in place, the same coaching deficiencies we pinned on a young team can't be brushed aside anymore (like Crean again). We know who we have at this point with Wilson and he isn't going to cut it. This is the season we can definitively say it. It may have been last year but that got scratched after Nate got hurt, and the Missouri win bought him some time.    Going back to what I said about most great coaches getting it done within a few years provided the pieces are in place, over the last 15 or so years the national championships came within a a few years of a new coach taking over: Urban Meyer won his first UF NC in year 2 and his first OSU NC in year 3 (though he went undefeated his first season at OSU at well) Jimbo Fisher won his first FSU NC in year 4 Nick Saban won his first LSU NC in year 4 and his first Bama NC in year 3 Les Miles won his first LSU NC in year 3 Pete Carroll won his first USC NC in year 3 Larry Coker won his first Miami NC in year 1 Bob Stoops won his first OU NC in year 2 Lloyd Carr won his first UM NC in year 3 Not that IU should have the same expectations as these other programs right now, but Wilson likely won't make a bowl game in year 5 and the momentum/recruiting he built up the last few years is plateauing at best. There will be a better foundation for the next coach than what Wilson inherited, but unless he pulls something big out of his ass in the latter half of this season, he's done. I wouldn't even keep him if we go 6-6 and bowling. 

Is Rod Carey our #1? Maybe we throw some money at a washed up coach with some success like Cincy did with Tuberville. 

This job would kill him. Bring in Lane Kiffin. 

First time I'm saying this, but Kevin Wilson is not HC material. I was willing to give him time to get his players in place and all....but he can't manage a game to save his life. I think he's done now. Go get Rod Carey.

The game has been moved from ESPN2 to ESPN. After getting people's attention last week, we reall really need a statement win here.

Some comments made by Adarius Rayner about Hackenberg are coming to the surface this week. As physical as last week's game was, I think that our front seven are drooling over the thought of this game. 20 points should beat Penn State.

Ok so we have a year to get more signatures. Right now we're at 7...   Wouldn't mind if someone would send this to FG

  So no go on this until at least next season?

  Sign and pass!

During the helmet petition, this appeared to be something a lot of people mentioned they would like to see changed. Please sign and share to help make the Indiana script logo the new endzone art. Link here. 

OSU - ______ "University of Indiana" - ________   This will be the first time these announcers have ever watched an IU game. 

The best part about this start is a home game on ABC next week. We'll finally be getting one of those overhead field cams in Memorial Stadium. 

The new helmets were awesome and we want to keep them. Please sign, share, and send to Fred Glass!   https://www.change.org/p/fred-glass-iu-ad-make-iu-script-helmet-official-helmet-for-indiana-hoosiers-football

Congrats to CKW on his first 3 game winning streak at IU

Those should be our helmets for the rest of time. It only took 118 years for this program to figure out its look.

James Franklin has essentially cost Christen Hackenberg $20 million. He was sacked ten times yesterday. I never thought that Stevens was really in contention to be a serious threat to start for PSU anyway, as Franklin is essentially the Tom Crean of CFB who always has his eye on the next big thing, but this flip keeps looking worse.

  Rather transition to a veteran PG than plug an 18 year old in there. Kid has potential.

He was ranked around the 20th PG in his class. Originally from North Carolina. He's also coming off of microfracture knee surgery. Looks like we may have just got Yogi's replacement. Apparently not a very good shooter, but very quick.

UNC deserves an athletic department-wide ban on NCAA postseason play for two years. In 1960 all of IU sports were banned for four years due to a football scandal. I realize that four years isn't going to fly these days (not even for child rape...), but two years university wide is fitting.

    We should be 4-0 in our non-con this year. I know nothing is to be expected with Indiana football, but three of them are at home, and we're going to be the favorites in every game. Expectations people.   In the Big10, Penn State, Rutgers, Iowa, Michigan, Maryland, and Purdue are all winnable games. For some reason, Ohio State tends to be too, though I wouldn't cross our fingers on that one. We'll get at least two of them (if Sudfeld stays healthy).

  With how much crap there is floating around southern Indiana and Kentucky, it's not surprising some of it would spill over into IU. I think a few fraternities were kicked off campus like 10 years ago for having meth labs.

 

At least Bud Mackey had the decency to do this crap before he got on campus. What a waste....Wasn't Allen an Army AA?
