Just a verbal agreement so far. Working everything else out right now. I'm guessing JMU is pushing hard to keep him

I'm afraid we are getting stuffed on that 1 yard line.

If someone can get over to the Stadium tell Dolson now is not the time to play hardball. We have the guy. The fanbase has never been this excited for an IUFB candidate. Just pay the man and let's go.

Also after we Cigs if you want season tickets now is the time to get them. We have 8 home games next year mostly in Sept. & Oct. plus if you get them before Dec 31, you will get two extra tickets to the first two games.

Remember Bloomington in Sept. & Oct is beautiful. If you are at the game, your not home doing chores that your wife thought up.

I am getting nervous at this dragging out 

[LamarCheeks 17,180]

We're down 3 and and have first and goal at the 1 with a minute left. Do we ... 

Get a TD and the win? 

Take three knees and play for the tie? 

Run four plays up the middle, get stuffed and lose? 

I have confidence we can still screw this up.

It wouldn’t be IUFB without finding a new way to **** it up!

Sadly, her to do list is always waiting when I get home. It's unavoidable. But you're right, Bloomington is amazing that time of the year.

I know but if I'm grilling, drinking a cold beer at the stadium, I'm not thinking about that list for a few hours.

It's IUFB. Try to take a knee, fumble the snap, and allow them to return it.

CTA would take a knee 3 times, then kick the FG. Now that we have moved on from that crap let's push it in and go for 2

lol….Allen and Hiller bickering….around middle 4th quarter, it was obvious Tuttle was told he was going into the game.  Penix looked like he was hurt and couldn’t escape the pass rush.  Tuttle put his helmet on and came over and talked to the OL (sitting right in front of us) and talked to the other offensive players.  But when IU got the ball back, Penix went back out on the field.  Tuttle just stood there with a stunned look on his face.  Nobody even came to talk to him that I saw.  Told my son right then Tuttle won’t be here much longer.

Soon after Penix was “injured” the rest of the year.  Though I wouldn’t want to play behind that OLine either.

I just don't think JMU can get close to the number that we can. 

Neither can Duke.  Or at least they shouldn’t.  The ACC has nowhere near the cash a BIG team should have to spend.

Does this apply to already season ticket holders?

I believe so as I got the email on this and believe if you go to your account to pay now it states this.

Wait... what? 15.5 million dollars, that wasn't his, that was used to fire CTA was poor judgment? 

I thought we wanted him fired? 

Dolson put IU in the position to have to pay so much... contractually it was $20.8M, and negotiated down to $15.5M ... still extremely poor judgment guaranteeing that buyout...

Clearly y'all disagree, and that's fine... I'm wearing my asbestos boxers today.

I am curious, because when I go to my account it does not give me the normal link to renew by season tickets yet?

[craigyv88 384]

The buzz around Ohio State is that Jim Knowles is likely headed to Duke.  He coached there under Cutcliffe for 7 or 8 years so I wouldn't be surprised by that.  

[LamarCheeks 17,180]

First legitimate source I've seen (other than @Chris007 -- LOL)

Pete Thamel of ESPN has put it out there, says we're finalizing a deal.
