And his dad played at IU. This kinda has IU written all over it

And apparently was JMU’s best and most P4 ready offensive lineman.

Hoosier? Yes—Hoosier.

Wow. Good nugget there. If that’s in the bio I totally missed it.

Mom is a financial services professional. 

Joseph is a business management major. A serious minded, quality family. The Kelley School awaits.

Zyn has a pretty good track record.  Would bet we have our QB for next year.

Little surprised.  Team and system really benefitted from Mendozas ability to be mobile

Has that feel to it.

Sam Cook from Jacksonville St in the portal. C-USA POY and rushed for over 1600 yards.

Definitely fits the production check box.

If there’s one thing we don’t need, it’s another lead back and especially one that racked up system yards in G6 and was already kinda dookie at a P4 school. 

Would be happy to land his former TCU QB however.

Josh Hoover would be an awesome grab. Guy can absolutely sling it.
Take out the two games where his middling OL was especially bad and his TD/INT numbers look much better last season. Then hand the keys to Alberto the year after

Yea, and while he's not the runner Fernando is, he's run a lot of RPO at TCU and he's reasonably mobile.

He's pretty darn logical here.  Obviously, he's likely looking at Fernando's improvement at IU (stats and draft stock) and thinking I'd like to do all that.  Plus there is the longer superb Cig QB track record with Rourke and several others as we know.

We'll see what happens.

If Beebee gets right, and one year removed from an ACL he should be, then  him, Kobe Martin, and a developmental guy is an outstanding rb room.

I would be surprised if Coop stays.

Would like to see Cuono step into the Martin role of “oh…we got something here” next season. Because I think we got something there.

Leaving for the draft, I assume? Or another program?

Yeah he is getting drafted. NFL talent and he seems ready from a physicality standpoint.
