The three months in which Gunner was a commitment was a special time. Gunner will always be one of my favorite Hoosiers.

We’re already a legitimate destination as we just won the national championship. And I think our transfer portal haul shows that.

Just because we aren’t willing to pay up for freshmen doesn’t mean kids wouldn’t be willing to come here if we did.

I’d be willing to bet we paid up…. I said we have the backing if we need it and it looks like that’s the case

I have ZERO idea if Kent Sterling has good sources but he stated  he heard the Sales package  exceeds $7,000,000 over a three year period. 
If so….thats absolutely crazy but thank you to whomever ponied up.

Hmm... if true I can see how it makes sense.  Top WRs are making a lot: Cam Coleman is getting ~$3M+ this year, Jeremiah probably close to $5M.  I don't know Nick Marsh's number... whatever it was it stopped him from taking the ND visit.

Of course you have to bet on Monshun developing, which with Cig & Co you've got to like your chances, but if he does thinking about it by year as something like $1.5M Yr1, $2.5M Yr2, $3M Yr3... it starts to make sense on a roster that is in the mid-$30M range and going higher.

Just thinking about it: assuming he signs, we've got a big upside guy in a position of need.  Not that we need a ton of help with this, but he's a nice piece for the next portal QB to consider (if we go that route).  And lastly he's a signal to future 5* recruits that Indiana can do the high end recruiting thing too when we like someone, we're not just a 3* development factory.

Pretty fun stuff!

A great read/comparison by Schumann. Clearly, Sales is not a sure thing like a guy like Becker for the coming season, but if Cig thinks Sales is worth the budget hit who are we to even remotely argue!!

Ain't it wunnerful to be on the receiving end of this kind of bs envy and jealousy?

An Alabama fan whining about other teams paying players is honestly just peak. 
 

How anybody in the big ten could be opposed to NIL is beyond me.  Alabama fan tears are more than enough to justify it

38-3, we had more points through 3 quarters than they had rushing yards total.

What a great get!!

I was very afraid our in-state rivals in West Laffy would swoop in and land Sales but Cig prevailed !!

Not to mention he said we “lucked out” even though we ended the season beating OSU, Bama, Oregon and Miami.

Correction: we did not beat Alabama, we ripped out their soul.

If we ripped out Bama’s soul, then we shot the Ducks from the Atlanta sky, had our hunting dog chew on the carcass as he was retrieving it, and fillet and roasted what was left on a spit.
