@btownqb, is your stance that since IU has historically sucked we should be satisfied with Tom Allen as coach? He's not a good coach but that is what IU should be fine with since they haven't had success in the past. That seems to be what you're saying.

Would it be SO WRONG if that's how I feel?     :)

Weird, 247 has both. Shows Hammond when you google it, then when you follow the link it shows Merrillville. I believe you though.

I know he graduated from Merrillville, but I feel like he might have been one of them that "transferred in". Maybe. I remember there being a fiasco at one point up there. 

Have you ever driven passed that HS? Lordy.. impressive from the interstate. LOVE the stadium.

Yes, drove past a few years ago and was blown away. Unfortunately I was driving north so it was all downhill from there lol.

It’s a special time, where basketball is finalizing its roster, baseball is in the hunt for B1G title, softball has their best season since ‘11, water polo is top 20 and football recruiting is critical! I’m an eternal optimist, feel like we take a huge self-sustaining step forward this season!

My job required me to visit most of the post offices on a regular basis. Merrillville was an easy visit. Some of the others, not so much. Still, a lot of good people in those places no matter the socioeconomic status.

Seen a lot of the "University of Indiana" from recruits, but I think this is a first.

I've noticed we are seeing a lot less of the University of Indiana statements.  I think the staffs are helping.  I cringe when I see the social media barrage after this, its just not necessary at all, and can't possibly do any good whatsoever to help in recruiting.

Trevell Commits to James Madison... So we were supposed to believe we had talent... And how many guys have transferred to other P5 schools? A corner that couldn't even stay in the FBS.

To be fair Trevell redshirted last year.  You can say he has potential but the staff didn’t feel like he was talented enough to beat out our other corners yet.

Over and under IU football record for 2023-(if relevant January, 2024)???
