Can’t blame him if he goes, he was a dominant player, but I wonder if he’s an example of a kid who would benefit if the NFL had an NBA-type of structure where you could announce and go through the process and gauge the feedback. I feel like his measurements and testing aren’t gonna match up to his production. Feels like he could fall  into day 3 and then goes to camp and does what he does and suddenly he’s a steal. But in this era that doesn’t feel like the ideal scenario for him. 
And I did not realize that 4th round money had gotten that stout. Good for them. 

Totally agree. I think at this point they can submit all their info and/or film to the NFL and get general feedback on where they may land, but being able to go through the process would be huge. Probably just way more difficult with the amount of prospects there are in football vs basketball.

Maybe we could combine them? Very confusing to a simple-minded dolt like myself.

Don’t know if there was ever a chance he could move on, but Fisher officially back.

The importance of that can't be under stated. Great news for continuity.

Love to see this coupled with the Fisher news -

I'm seeing a very good season coming again next year. We are way ahead of where we were this time last year. Get a QB, some help on the o line, a running back, and some depth and let's shock the college football world...... again!

When we get “that” QB, things will start to fall in place…

Unless I am missing something, I'm surprised there is not more excitement about landing Hemby....he's a good solid running back and great addition to the team!

Hemby Signed with Indiana

You'll see more excitement for transfers in the portal thread.

It hadn’t really occurred to me that Ponds might leave, but he’s officially staying, per his Twitter feed. Thank God, kid’s a hell of a player.

That’s three 1st team All-B1G players on the defense returning.

Example #100 or so of the culture change in Bloomington. A year ago if CTA had an AA CB I would have just assumed you’re losing that guy. But now, since Ponds isn’t draft eligible it never occurred to me for a second that he wouldn’t be back.

Such a great post — and you can bet that Isaiah Jones is soaking up every single bit of Aiden Fisher work ethic and zero star, hyper-talented Rolijah Hardy is watching every move zero star Mikhail Kamara makes.

Good good times.
