IU 31 UVA 24

hmmm, Wat does this move us up to 5 - 7 now?

I heard they're taking Heps name off the rock too! ;)

Even an old dude like me likes to see the jersey changes. It really doesn't cost us anything and if the players like it, Great! Some whiners would complain about not changing the uni's because its the same ole same ole.... Yeah, I'm good with it.

Don't kick your dog Wat, lol

I guess from Dawkins standpoint he lost out as starter due to an injury back at AZ and thought he would become the starter here. Now to be named 2nd or 3rd is a bad situation. As long as we can stay healthy I think this is good for IU. He was only here for a year as an experienced hand. It's too bad he wasted his time with us and likewise we wasted our time with him. It would have been nice to give Penix and Taylor more time to practice (knowing Ramsey wouldn't have lost time with or without Dawkins.) I just hope we don't have injuries and are saying "if only" later this year.

arrrrrrrrrrrrrrgh, I feel like Charlie Brown watching Lucy pull the ball away as I am beginning to kick... I may need to revise my prediction...

I think that this is where the new red shirt rule will be helpful. They can allow Penix to play sparingly and gain some game time experience without taking away his red shirt eligibility. At this time of year its all wishful thinking, but I am excited to see how this year unfolds. (Realistic but hopeful) Like someone else posted... ready to get my heart stomped on again, lol. GO HOOSIERS!

Thanks for the update and explanation Lucel. I had been wondering. Had hoped for Minor could develop.

Question marks on both side of the ball, with our schedule I would guess 6 - 6 knowing 5 -7 is just as likely or 7-5 (with some luck and we are DUE for that luck!)

I think this thread suffers from ADD, lol.

If we do not finish strong our "84.89" rating will go down, I am not strictly a numbers guy but I want the remainder of the class to be higher 3 stars or another 4 star(s). Purdue is finishing their class just short of an 86 rating with 21 recruits and 4 - 4 stars. Are you suggesting we slack off and are good to go? "I'm chill" but want to finish strong.

Regardless, we need to finish strong.

I don't tend to worry too much about other teams reqruiting classes but seems like Purdue is getting some highly ranked players. We need to finish out our class strong.

I believe BSU also has a receiver on the Biletnikoff watch list. So, with your observations (QB and RB) a balanced attack? Totally agree, need to take this game without question. Really need to win the other two also, as others have mentioned, little room for error this year.

Hudl shows him playing line on both offense & defense. Do we know where IU figures him to play (or his preference)? Looks like another good pick up and a very good recruiting weekend!

Looks like a real nice core of players to start this class!

Awesome!

That is a real boost to this class and will hopefully draw more players of his caliber to this class. Terrific News!

Thanks for posting Thompson - A nice recap of things hopefully to come by Andy Graham. Maryland, Purdue, Minnesota, and Virginia, all appear to be big games that will make or break IU this year. Looks to be a tough year but a bowl is possible with winning most of those on those on "my" list. We are due for some luck as we seemed to be on the short end of the stick in some of those close contests in recent years. Maryland still sticks in my mind from last year... I hope CTA is smiling those pearly whites at the end of the fall. If he is, I Know I will be! GO HOOSIERS!

Given our recent history of injuries to QB's, having a stable of qualified guys is a plus. Adding one that comes in as a grad transfer, (polished, poised, and experienced) providing the chemistry within the QB's is good, is terrific. Hopefully they all make each other better. There isn't a position group at IU that can't take a little more depth and help, particularly as the season wears on. "LEO"

Another good pick up! Keep em coming coaches!

Looks like a nice pick up and a good start to this class!

Sorry to confuse, yes I was talking about Thomas & Cobbs.
