Brass Cannon

We’re getting to the point where NIL deals are gonna include electronic monitoring clauses.

My wife thought we took a trip to btown to see wonderlab. But in reality I only wanted to see that lol

I don’t think any player means so much to one program. He’s our only Heisman. He led us to 5 more wins than our next most successful team. The other teams with guys who had success similar to Fernando have multiple guys in that ballpark.

Sums up Purdues season perfectly

Jeez this still doesn’t feel real to me. I’ve only gotten to see a handful of my teams win a title. But those felt natural the result of steady play that eventually the law of averages panned out and the won. Same would have ever true if Myles Turner had bothered to show up in the finals. But this is still surreal even after watching the team for month push past any obstacle. Just unbelievable

Money on Miami to cover

If this visit is still happening. Wow what a time to commit if he chose to.

Yep he’s got a problem. I think they lose at Texas. There must be punishment for anybody who sells their tickets

We began and ended the year scoring 27 points with 0 Passing TDs. A Fernando Rushing TD and a Special Teams TD

Young man is an absolute legend. Nothing but the best for this kid. But I do hope what’s best is another year in Bloomington.

I read somewhere that there wasn’t a buyout in his contract. Not sure if that’s true.

I feel like Duke is going to win this. They can’t stop him from transferring. But they can’t stop him from playing. I doubt the courts want to throw out decades of contract law Washington won this same fight.

Was hoping they would do something for him

I bet they are trying to figure out if they can squeeze in anymore seats somewhere anywhere. Hell sell overflow tickets to watch at assembly hall. String up some hot air balloons for gods sake.

That’s the reality of the NIL era. Some teams don’t even have the 1.

No problem. I was about to order one then got a 3000 dollar but from ascension so I might wait a bit lol. Still gonna buy it though lol

Wow Oregon gets left out and they include Alabama. Saban pulled some strings. Miami doesn’t even have a QB officially.

I will cheer so hard for Georgia Tech in 26. And if he’s able would love to welcome him back in 27. Class family all the way

When do we retire that lovable nerds jersey?

It’s definitely interesting case study. They scored more but it was an easier era to score in. They also had to score more because their D wasn’t dominant.

The shade thrown here is excellent

A few fun stats. Cal won 16 games while Mendoza was there. Mendoza wasn’t a starter in all of those. But he doubled his win total coming to IU. Based on Calendar year. We have already matched our win total from 2023
