Walk-on…it depends on how walk-on is being defined and will be defined going forward….  And opportunity to work towards non walk on status.  In house unknowns outside and of course….It is IU football. 

…..could be “preferred walk-onish”..lol!

Nice add here. Played in TCU’s last 5 games. 

[Hovadipo 55,253]

Also, think we’re now a Baylor transfer away from bringing in a kid from every 2022 Texas P5 school.

Stanford transfer. Didn’t do much of anything there.

True, but was very highly regarded out of high school.  20th rated TE.

Ont worry, Twitter already has him as amazing. Like only Twitter can do. Because Indiana football is amazing, because of course we had two good seasons a couple years ago.

In today’s episode of “getting injured in college is bad”, it’s trending towards Cam Jones going undrafted.

I'm already planning for the worst.  

Meanwhile, no IU player went drafted.

The TE room doesn't really need help though lol.. outside of.. maybe a blocker, which I assume is what this kid is.

I'm not a pessimistic person, but 60+ years of following IU football has worn me down some. When I think we are about to turn some kind of corner, injuries expose our lack of depth and the season goes into the crapper. It gets exhausting trying to figure out a path to 6 wins year after year.

Especially when you play in the best division in football. Put us in the ACC Coastal

No it does need help. The entire program needs help.

IU football team for 2023 achieves really good success they could be known as the Rag Tag team…if things didn’t go that well at your last place…come to IU (football) and be Great.

Hmmm ... Something is missing from this chart ...

Hey, we might not have any good players, but at least the ones we do love each other.

I don't understand taking a shot at Coach Allen and LEO? It's always weird to me when that slogan bothers people. 

But, this was pretty normal for us pre-2013, and once Cam Jones+Bedford went down that pretty well sealed our chances of anyone getting drafted.

I'm not sure that the slogan "bothers" people as much as it is just low hanging fruit. My guess is if it was a tad more successful, the jokes would go away. But the reality is that slogan has really done nothing for the program, and he keeps blasting it out it like it does.

The results speak for themselves. We are the only B1G team not to have a player drafted. We now have the longest streak in college football without a player drafted in the first round. There's lots of shots to be taken...

What IUFB coach has been succesful and/or more successful than Tom Allen? 

And sure, I assume there are a lot of shots to be taken if you are a fan of another team....

Make no mistake this football program is still a joke

[Hoosierfan2017 21,060]

I just find Tom Allen embarrassing. All the other programs in the conference make fun of his spastic personality. He’s the opposite of cool, calm, and collected. He’s a goof. You’d think we just won the Super Bowl with the way he celebrates some of our in-game plays. 

His teams take after his personality. They’re always undisciplined and out of control. For all the rah rah he preaches, he rarely holds players accountable. They make mistake after mistake and trot right back onto the field. 

And don’t even get me started on #LEO. No one wants to hear you chant your catch phrase after you get beat by 50 for the umpteenth time.
