Seth Tow in Daily Hoosier….won’t find a better write up than he did on Mac Holmes and she deserves every single word of it.

I would not be surprised if Sidney Parrish plays at All American level this year. (she was good already but a big time sleeper player in my opinion that it will all come together for her)

Give everybody a pay raise

Always kind of wondered what LEO means other than love every one. (It has really worked well for T.A.financially). How much does it really mean??? Enough for a refund or at least a partial refund for job performance???LOL. Sidenote: I get Bob Knight earned most of his money in a large variety of ways…..However, Bob Knight supposedly declined Texas Tech salary one year for poor job performance. At IU Knight salary was in the below or around a couple hundred thousand dollars per year. (times have changed) Is that true LEO???

A. Bjorn in town this weekend for IU Ladies visit.

1 and 7 Akron Zips. 14 4 and 4 Bowling Green 41 Nough said.

Final Score Akron Zips. 14 Bowling Green. 41

Quarter 2 Bowling Green. 10 Akron Zips. 7

Post Game T.A. Well Rutgers one of the best in big. We are still playing for a bowl game. Just have to play more sound football and we made some plays but to many mistakes….make less mistakes. LEO IU football has transgressed back to Bill Lynch short era. Team May hold up in MAC. Not power 5.

Not just games but after last season, spring ball, summer, preseason, and a third of 2023 season Walt Bell was very costly and T.A. inability indecisive decision making carryover into and during season = more losses than wins.

What is game attendance today 1250 to 1300. Counting the Band and the Red Steppers and families 2000. Including broadcast booth and parking attendants and concession ticket workers and maintenance maybe etc 2200 plus Fish and Sidekick 2102. How many more were at Hoosier Hysteria?

Watching IU Ladies hysteria thinking about 10 years ago and how T. Moren stuck her name in the hat and IU Fred Glass played the Hoosier lottery and won.

Has great hops…volleyball pic shows her roughly 2 to 3 feet off the floor.

A couple of IU Ladies recruiting prospects have made visits to the west coast recently which was on their schedules which includes UCLA. UCLA is one of the top teams in the country but I think they averaged less than 3,000 attendance per game last year at home.

IU Ladies have more confident fun swagger as they follow their coach T. Moren. No protective knee gear for IU Ladies. Good sign.

“Close to the point where guys are just waiting for portal season”….wrong…..they were not close to waiting….but were already implementing transfer portal season as 2 or 3 years ago as evidenced by lineman and QB transfers from IU to other programs. However, it is true the players this season are continuing into what is fast becoming a new IU football tradition of losing some of IU’s best players to transfer and trying to replace them with lateral or lesser talented players…..need to change this immediately before it becomes an entrenched tradition.

IU has a real shot to win this one. Only a 5 point underdog..

Sidenote: not wanting this, however as QBs go in T.A. era it’s been a dangerous position. He commits to one QB and if a ding or something a little more happens (maybe even in quarter one) then plan is out the door because the other qb will play…if he wants to.

Example: IU Ladies basketball among others

Contract Stability for All IU. 20 Rutgers. 17

Emotional psych. I suppose no matter how much money one makes….losing and losing to the point of not really being competitive at the level of competition required….eventually takes its toll mentally and emotionally and physically to the point not only is the team and individual psychic is amidst in confusion and chaos…but the head coach psychic is also amidst in hopelessness grinding out his contract with assistant coaches in the balance of do I stay or keep my eyes open and focus for future opportunities as time marches on to the next IU football coaching era.

Indiana State Sycamores 0 wins and 7 losses Illinois State. 44 Indiana State. 7

AKRON 1 win 6 losses Central Michigan 17 Akron Zippers. 10

Learned years ago that never say that it can go nowhere but up. After all it is IU football

Duke is not listed in her final 7.
