Andre Carter is playing one heck of a season so far. I'd surprised if he's not playing Sundays. So far, the transfer portal has been good to us in that aspect. 

Saw Andre Carter on some sleeper 1st rounder lists in the preseason. He’s certainly playing like a 1st or 2nd day pick.

Yeah, I would've gone with black helmet and red logo to complete the look.

I love these!!! Yes a Matt black helmet and metallic Crimson red logo on the sides.

HATE that we're gonna wear black. Those clowns about 120 miles to the north wear black. 

We do not -- and should not! 

What are we gonna wear the following week: Kentucky blue?

Don't worry y'all... I'm in year 3 at Indiana on NCAA 13. Won the national title year 1. Got screwed out of going to the national title game in year but hung 100 in the Rose Bowl because I was mad. Going for another national title in year 3. I've got the program in check. You're welcome.

 

Edit: Stephen Houston won the Heisman those first two years. De'Angelo Roberts is well on his way to winning it now. Unfortunately, this is basically the end of any real players being part of the team.

We have added former Memphis and VA Tech head coach Justin Fuente to the staff as an analyst. Likely taking over Carey’s spot there.

He’s actually a good offensive mind.

Informative read about Fuente's issues at Va Tech:

Good read. Thanks for sharing. Lot of similarities between VT and IU it seems, outside of the 3 decades of winning lol.

The VT football to IU basketball is very similar.

In a foot race to Dolsons office, I think Fuente has the edge over Carey.

So what exactly can he do? Carey sounded like he really couldn't do anything but take notes. But I do remember Fuente being a hot name at one point.

Entirely behind the scenes… game planning, film study, evaluation. Another voice/set of eyes for the offense and a lot of times will help self-scout for the defense. Can be on the field at practices, but can’t do any coaching. Will be on the field or in the booth for games charting, etc. I think he can be on the headset in-game as well. I also think analysts can participate in meetings with players, just no on-field contact. Teams do break that rule a TON though. I think Michigan got slapped on the wrist for it a couple years ago. I’m sure Bama abuses it like crazy with their army of misfit head coaches.

The Hoosiers football team was in attendance at WWE Fastlane on Saturday night, including Declan McMahon.

... that's the message.
