So that frees up $330k. CTA will have to find another guy to replace him, just like he did to replace Mark Hagen. Best of luck to Coach Peoples. Hope he succeeds and have positive memories while coaching at IUFB.

Throughout the entire history of IUFB I don't know of any OC that has accomplished a level of recruitment of what you asking Bell to do. I could be wrong though. I mean what QB has ever transferred into IUFB from schools you're talking about here? With the exception of Baylor and the current 4* transfer out of Incarnate Word, QBs that commit, transfer out or into those schools are typically 4-5* recruits. They commit to those schools with high expectations at a level us IUFB faithful have never experienced. Like Heisman thoughts and what not. Well, to be fair, we did experience a taste of it last season and the start of 2021. And maybe a brief stint in the late 80s. But not at a consistent level. I'm not sure where I said I was putting all my eggs in one basket with one position but whatever. I understand what you're saying about getting a desirable QB out of the portal but most of us are saying IUFB is what it is and looking at this whole process through a different perspective might be something of value.

Yep. IUFB. Maybe. You and I just don't know if that's possible.

To piggyback off of this, looking at the current list of QBs available in the transfer portal, I'd be happy with any of them committing to IUFB. I mean, I'd prefer a high value proven transfer but I just don't think that's in the cards. And those on the current list can't do any worse than our current situation. For me it's about adding depth and if that OL doesn't improve it really doesn't matter who's starting QB.

I wondered the same. So I punched him in the class calculator on 247 and according to it, it wouldn't have made any bump in rank but it would have jumped up the pts from 218.82 to 224.49. Food for thought: If you look at the rankings on both Rivals and 247 schools like LSU, Clemson, Oklahoma and Stanford are ranked below IUFB. So I'm thinking this current ranking will change because the recruiting process isn't finished and I'm sure IUFB will be moving around. Hopefully up and not down. Also, the transfer portal is a constant revolving door and that also changes a team's 'ranking' by the start of the season. But regardless it's a solid recruiting class nonetheless.

I mean, is that a bad thing? We're talking IUFB here. Also, it's fair to say you know as well as I do that we don't know how both McCulley and Tuttle will develop under Bell. I'm not holding my breath but I'm also not throwing in the towel. In my experience people react differently to a change. Especially at the leadership level. I'm going to sit back and see it all play out instead of bash the situation. But that's just me.

Yet? They got until February and the transfer portal kind of changes everything. CTA also said that's a priority so we'll see.

Dust is starting to settle. Updated Class Rankings 14/4 - Rivals 17/4 - 247 No update with ESPN.

IUFB and his team finished ranked 2nd on the USA Today Super 25.

My thoughts exactly. Low pick though.
