Interesting….. https://www.essentiallysports.com/nfl-ncaa-news-cu-buffs-report-deion-sanders-pursuit-of-julian-lewis-heats-up-with-the-emergence-of-a-new-dark-horse/

….nice piece on current state of IU football and Julian Lewis.

I’ll take him as a 1star…lol

lol…. It’s reality now. This has been on Dish and I’m sure all other digital medias.

Auburn will stay with Under Armour until the new contract begins in July 2025. “I think Nike has set a certain standard on the American collegiate scene that we wanted to be a part of,” Cohen said.May 21, 2024

For what it’s worth, the only school sponsored my Under Armour in this recruitment is Auburn. That doesn’t really mean a whole lot…

For all those who like to read into things or look for hints. Julian just posted this a few minutes ago on Twitter … Notice the photo on the right. Lol It’s in a school setting with all red… hmmmm? lol

It was the pic of him in his IU shirt and made some comments relating to a decision coming soon. Can’t remember the exact text

I love Coach Cignetti’s latest comment…. “Wherever they are, we'll find them,” Cignetti said. “If we think they're a good fit and a good match, then we'll get them on campus.”

That was me. The last picture he’s standing with his IU shirt on looking like he is going to kiss the Auburn football. Lol

….now, can you imagine if he can flip J. Lewis to IU? Most, if not all don’t even have us in the conversation where he may go. That doesn’t bother me one bit. As of right now, it seems most are assuming Colorado and Auburn are pulling out all the stops. I personally think IU is the dark horse. JMO. Go IU!

Ehhh……. Maybe, but Julian has all the tools, talent and ability to completely upgrade ANY school he plays for. He’s an eventual 1st round draft pick and if a school like us can somehow “win the college lottery” and land this stud, then who cares about all the flirting. It’s to be expected. As for a 2025 player like McCorkle who’s listed as a top 250 CB, I’m not losing sleep of him. Some of these kids are definitely using schools to get them noticed, knowing fully that they are not REALLY 100% committed. Look, if we improve under Cignetti like most are expecting to, we will start attracting better than those top 250 talent players. The thing is, Coach Cignetti doesn’t want players who think they “walk on water”. I believe Julian is not one of those puffed up type of players.

Hmmmm, I wonder if something is potentially brewing?

.....I mean, I'm looking at these hats and all I can think of is "what the..?" lol Those are the absolutely hideous! lol

....what are we doing to beat out the "likes" of Michigan, LSU and others? lol I love that we are aggressive and going toe to toe with the big boys. Coach Cignetti is not messing around.

The players like it. I think it's cool. These interviews are super relaxed and "real". Also, she's giving "shout outs" to local food businesses too.

.....Flirty Girl doin' her thang.....lol and the Cat! lol

lol....I live in Jennings County...

Totally agree!

...definitely hate seeing players transferring out, especially one who hasn't even played in an official game yet. IMO, I imagine these players aren't foreseeing the playing time or positions they are hoping for. Quite possibly, some of them may not like Coach Cignetti's approach, coaching philosophy or style. Who knows...? I will say, it definitely means something when you have double digit transfers from JMU come to IU. They definitely didn't come to IU because it's IU Football.

https://dailyillini.com/sports-stories/mens-sports/men-basketball/2024/04/30/coleman-hawkins-declares-nba-draft-transfer-portal/ Would Coach Woodson want Colman for a backup 5 spot or would Colman be willing to be the backup and take less minutes? Probably not, but just mulling it over. If so, would Luke Goode have any pull if he there were mutual interest?

….I think she be flirtin’ a little! Lol

Sorry if this video of Nikita has already been posted. I like what I see…

whoaw.... she's a bigg'n. Nice pick up.
