  1. That pass hit our CB between the 2 and the 8. No wonder he dropped it!
  2. I'm kinda thinking I'd really like three more points in that situation.
  3. Apparently, sacking the QB is illegal ...
  4. Why the eff did he catch that punt at the 2-yard line! Fundamentals, anyone?
  5. When you need 10 yards, why do you throw it 8!
  6. Stay safe, everyone. As one who lives on the coast of Virginia and has been through a few hurricanes, I'm very lucky that Irma didn't head my way -- as once was a projection. Am thinking of and praying for all those in her path. God bless!
  7. I'm a Hoosier who has lived in Virginia for 16 years. The last two times we played the Cadavaliers, we lost (very badly one of those times). This time, we turn it around ... IU 30 U.Va. 22
  8. Not a big deal, but I believe the game is at 3:30 p.m.
  9. They won't. They'll win by four.
  10. So, the call was overturned. That doesn't change this one fact: We absolutely, positively have to start getting more first- and second-down yardage.
  11. When you need 8 yards, why throw it 6!
  12. Lagow playing much better than last season, but still holding onto the ball way too long.
  13. Obviously has not mastered the art of the coffin corner punt.
  14. I grew up in The Region and initially, was excited to see that Gelon was gonna be a Hoosier. But it became pretty clear he just didn't have the skill set to be a B1G player. Crean reached just a little too far on this one. Yes, he found some good under-the-radar talent in guys like Oladipo and Sheehey, but when he took flyers on those guys, we were still working our way back into national prominence after a couple really dark years. And they had abilities that Gelon just doesn't. He offered Gelon at a time when really, we needed to be aiming higher. I have a feeling that despite what his coach said, the D-1 options are few and far between. I hope he does well, but it just seemed that clearly, he was not a Power 5-conference type player.
  15. Half my family went to Purdue, so I'm stoked that Archie went into their backyard and got this kid. Can't wait to see him run the team.
  16. Hey Wilson, ready for another loss at Memorial Stadium? (OK, so OSU will probably win by 2-3 TDs, but somebody's gotta take a little shot at the dude!)
  17. I guess he's not announcing a decision tonight!
  18. Man, how sweet would it be to snag this kid from the backyard of the Toiletmakers!
  19. Why doesn't the B1G have more respect for the IU-Toiletmaker rivalry! We should play twice every year. It's the best basketball rivalry in the conference. The ACC wouldn't ask Duke and UNC to play just once.
  20. OK. Makes sense. I wonder if my high school has changed its policies, because when I was there, you couldn't graduate early. And the senior courses that were required for graduation could only be taken by seniors. I'm guessing by now, they've relaxed that policy, but would have no idea.
  21. I don't get how the whole "reclassifying" deal works. At my high school -- granted, that was 30 years ago -- you had all kinds credit and course requirements you needed to satisfy before you could graduate. And you couldn't take a handful of those courses until you were a senior; hence, there was no way you could graduate early or "reclassify" or move up a class. I could've dropped out any time I wanted, I suppose, but I still wouldn't have satisfied the school's requirements to get my diploma. I hope someone more intelligent than me -- that won't take much -- can enlighten me.
  22. Don't know if I'd call it poaching. It's just recruiting. And having spent a handful of years in Indiana, he certainly knows the state.
  23. You just hope that Archie is as happy to be at IU as we are to have him. I hope that deep down in the back of his mind, he's not thinking, "Damn. I wish I had waited for that Ohio State gig." ... I'm guessing (hoping) he is happy in B-town, though. ... Because many automatically assumed that since he went to N.C. State, he'd want that job when it opened. He didn't. And since he was a Matta assistant, many automatically assumed that he'd want to coach at OSU. And it's possible he didn't want a return there.
