Yeah, I want the tea. 

I have no evidence to back it up, but my money would be on Kobee Minor given the "bigger den dis" (lol) comment.

Couple somewhat cryptic tweets from within the program. 

Some big news coming down the pike???

Crystal ball our way for CJ West, a DL from Kent State.

Would be a significant addition, CCC was competing with the upper tier of the B1G for this one.

Ok now we need Khurtiss Perry to hop on this wave.

LB Jayden McDonald to UConn - his third transfer and fourth school overall (Iowa, Troy, and Indiana previously.)

By my math I am tracking eight remaining in the portal (Holloman, Bohler, Miller Jr., Jeffries, Jared Casey, Greenlow and both Minor's) with 80 committed for the Fall.

A good replacement to fill the Blidi hole. LSU's Brian Kelly has a certain value placed for the position. NIL is so interesting. He also missed out on Blidi.

....what are we doing to beat out the "likes" of Michigan, LSU and others? lol 

I love that we are aggressive and going toe to toe with the big boys. Coach Cignetti is not messing around.

Paying a little more than they want too for certain guys/positions.  I ain't complaining.  If the money is there, lets use it.

He's basically talking about IUFB. These comments make me wonder if this is a good overall strategy. While I completely agree with what he's saying that's not what is happening. Players are shopping. LSU had 27 enter the portal. Does LSU not have the cash flow?

Thanks for the flag, it looks like we vary on CB Christian Peterson's status with the club - I am not reflecting him joining the club this Fall, but it looks like Seth and @Mike Schumann have him in the calculation.

We had standout players last season?

To be fair, I'm not sure if he was assigned to Marvin Harrison Jr. but the 4th overall pick in this year's NFL draft only had 2 catches for 18 yards against his team. He did have a PD that game as well. Considering how bad things were last year, he was probably one of the players on the team that was above average. But yeah, I get your point. 

Aaron Casey was definitely a standout player for IUFB '23. Maybe Jaylin Lucas? But he was a disappointment for me personally. He had a better '22 season in my opinion.

Rolijah Hardy to IU

I think Harrison struggling against IU had more to do with Ohio State than Indiana.

That's quite the resume

The two CB spring portal pickups are graded 2 and 3. 

[Lebowski]

All4You Podcast talked about this but it looks like Coach Cig might be re-writing the playbook on how to use the portal. Basically bring in  a lot of G5 all-conference and FCS All-American players that have been productive and highly graded. 

This is of course IUFB produces on the gridiron this season. There's always that doubt that these type of players are in the G5 and FCS for a reason. We'll see it all play out for sure and I can't wait.
