IUFB 2024/25 Portalstravaganza
Lebowski replied to Naturalhoosier's topic in Indiana Football Recruiting Forum
Starters RT Trey Wedig - 6'7" 319lbs LT Carter Smith - 6'5" 308lbs Backups Cooper Jones - 6'5" 314lbs Austin Barrett - 6'6" 308lbs Redshirts (they'll probably add pounds during the offseason) Evan Lawrence 6'6" 281lbs Austin Leibfried 6'6" 288lbs I think we're pretty solid with size, it's just depth and development. And who knows how many in the OL room decide to transfer out. -
Let's wait and see what kind of ranking our beloved Hoosiers get tonight.

That's debatable about the SEC being tougher this year. But I completely agree with what you're saying here. Especially the 8 conference games. It backfired on them this year because of the size of the conference and lack of cream rising to the top. There's really only three schools that are clearly good enough to be in the CFP with all the other "Illini's" in the conference trying to justify worse losses than the real Illini.

Who knows but I think our best case to host would be Texas and SMU winning. I'm not sure a 3 loss team will host over a 1 loss P4 school. Regardless, there's gonna be seed shuffling after this weekend. Let's hope we get a favorable CFP ranking tonight.

Nah man, the "Bowl experience" will be considered playing in the NIT. This is a good thing. A CFP participant is much much more coveted. Way way way more important than playing the Citrus or whichever else. Recruits know this too.

It took the last game of the season to accomplish this. They have accomplished everything on this list except the NFL draft. That will be determined in April 2025.

I'm waiting on the All-conference announcements. Once those drop, I'll have a wish list. Regardless, front 5 and front 7 need to be addressed for depth. For example, someone like Red Murdock, LB out of Buffalo, will more than likely be an all-conference. He's a SO from VA. I wouldn't be surprised if he's caught the eye of Coach Haines. Eric O'Neil and Khairi Manns out of JMU are other names to keep an eye on. -
Regardless the seed this week it will change after the conference championships. IUFB still has an opportunity to host a game is what I'm trying to say if that makes sense.

A year ago today we were introduced to a really good football coach to be IUFB's next coach.

Let's hope this month fills holes for next season. Remember, production > potential. Whoever decides to transfer here will most likely be a solid contributer to his current team. And Coach Cig isn't afraid to look at G5 and FCS talent with chips on the shoulders. Definitely need depth at OL. -
It's convoluted but the tiebreaker scenarios were released way before the season started. We don't win the tiebreaker against PSU, unfortunately. Here are the rules. I think the 3rd or 4th scenario is where we don't make the cut. https://btownbanners.com/topic/9803-college-football-thread/?do=findComment&comment=918583

I doubt it. But if we get a chance to play that game in Indy, IUFB is winning it.
-
PSU wins the tiebreaker. That's why we want the Terps to win.
-
Good start for the Terps.
-
Probably not. Unless we lose tonight.

Truth.

She's just a talking bobble head for ESPN at this point. She knows who signs her paychecks. Most of the folk at ESPN keep going after IUFB. It's all good though, being 10-1 in the Big Ten will get you in the EXPANDED CFP.

This will change through more wins. Most of the country has this perception of IUFB and rightly so. This is brand new territory for the program. It's not for the coaching staff but it is for the program. We'll make noise in the CFP wherever we end up playing. I foresee this being the new expectations for IUFB going forward... and it's spectacular!!!!

The only thing that's disappointing is knowing that IU is just now using the money on IUFB. Just think of how much more sooner Indiana could have been a powerhouse in football. Us IUFB faithful have been begging for this type of investment to occur for decades!!!

I think the schedule is another good schedule for us to be honest. We'll be fine.

#5 IUFB @ #2 Ohio State - 11/23/24 at Noon on FOX
Lebowski replied to Hovadipo's topic in Indiana Hoosiers Football
What's crazy, it could have been Evans' first time he's ever muffed a punt in his entire career. Sometimes poop just happens. Felt awful for him and my stomach dropped when it happened. I knew it was a big mistake for the game but didn't know it was that play where everything changed.
