Lets put it this way......If or when Coach Cignetti hits the portal next year for a qb, I feel could have a pick of the litter. JMO

I’m curious to see what the transfer market looks like with the extra year guys no longer being on the market like they have been in. The past.

One name I've heard that will be in the portal who might get an IU look is the quarterback from Western Kentucky Caden Veltkamp. He has little better numbers than what Rourke had last season.

A highly successful redshirt sophomore 6’6” business major?

That sounds pretty promising.

The staff has mentioned in the past that they will look for a QB in the portal regardless of what happens in the HS ranks.  It will be telling if CCC and crew bring in a veteran looking to start vs. more of a back-up profile.

I don't see Cigs going after a back-up profile (unless he has failed at landing every player that is better).   He will go after the best he can get and tell them to compete for playing time.

And there it is - Julian Lewis has been moved from 'Top Targets' to 'Interested' on Indiana's 247 page.

Looks as if it's the Buffs and Coach Prime.

Wonder where he’ll go when Deion inevitably leaves after this season.  

[Hovadipo 54,944]

Does Julian see drinking age behind Deion’s offensive line?

Not much interest out there for him. Might have too high a price tag. I see him slipping again, but I don’t think he has the size to play in the big ten as a freshman

Is it expected Tayven will be the starting QB next year?  I'm not worried about Coach Cig's capability of bringing in high level QB recruits or other big QB transfers going forward.

I think it is expected that he will have a chance to compete for the starting QB position.

Agree.

He will have a chance to compete and I wouldn’t be surprised if one of his competitors is a yet to be determined QB  conference MVP from.a non-power 4 school.

I tend to think a Rourke like transfer could be just as likely.  Obviously I don’t see practice so hopefully the young kids are developing there.

If no transfer is brought in, I assume it's a competition between Jackson, Cherry, and Mendoza.  It shouldn't be forgotten that Cherry was the 18th rated QB in the class of 24.
