Landino will be back. I'd imagine Tyrique will be back and not go pro. Damn that's a high quality top two.

We need two more rotational guys; another veteran pickup and we should have a developmental guy like Garcia or Hall coming up that will ready for a role.

you brought in some highly rated interior this past year, as well, McHaney is a freak.

For sure, and McHaney is really highly rated/thought of. But as a true freshman that's asking a lot.

Didn’t realize Tucker had another year. Was counting him among the gone. That’s really good news.

You have two you love, plus Garcia, Hall... another 2 or 3 FR... maybe 1 transfer to add to the group? getting close to being full at that position group. Monette is still on the roster, as well. 

Landino played a reasonable amount as a true FR.

Heard on a podcast that Oregons assistants have had to be jet setting across the country dealing with portal issues for there new teams. 
 

After how rough the Oregon offense has looked for a bit not a good thing for them where as our D is 100% locked in and didn’t have to play a whole game 

Oregon is losing OC Stein to Kentucky... and DC Lupoi to Cal. Gotta be hard focusing on the Peach Bowl while trying to work on their new staffs and rosters. Plus these guys are taking other coaching staff members with them including Flemming, recruiting director Biondo and Leftwich.

Curious how that will affect the Ducks' preparation. That's a whole lot of change, and a whole lot of unnecessary noise, IMO.

Ok, OSU fans may obviously suck, but the fact that a fair percentage of them seem to be backing IU for the rest of the playoffs combined with this being objectively hilarious means I need to cut them a little slack for a couple of days.

BUT ONLY until Saturday morning. Then they go back on the Most Hated list.

Any idea when their coaches leave for their new gigs?

Just loving watching the ND and O$U fan base melt down over this portal season. Not only is Indiana playing in the CFP semis, Cig is kicking butt in the portal. Cig is taking their lunch money and making them cry.

It's great to be a football school.

I'm sure they're sticking around until the Ducks are done, but as the good book says, a double-minded man is unstable in all of his ways... hard to lock focus in on two opposing things.

Are the replacements there working yet? I'd imagine they have to have some staff dedicated to game planning in their absence.  I am glad our staff is not doing double duty like that but having to take focus off game planning for portal focus is a distraction in and of itself.

I’m not sure they all have replacements yet. Even then might be too many cooks in the kitchen. 
 

Once again though I am glad our defense is pretty well wrapped up in the portal and we can’t focus on how to put Moore on the ground.

anyone heard if we are also looking to bump Bolstad's pay/contract?

Ja’Hyde Brown.  ‘27 class high school guy.  A good one!

Are you sure?  The ND crowd says we do not recruit HS kids ; )

Schott... 

more excited for the kid than Indiana on this one.  Knowing him a bit personally, this is so cool for his family.  I don’t know what kind of contributor he will be immediately, but he’s a great kid that will be about the right things. 

[68Hoosier]

Man, it has been fun watching the team this year and now translating into recruiting success.  

[Hovadipo]

Yeah this is going to rip in a raucous Memorial Stadium.

Schott is definitely a departure from the production over potential mantra, but they must have seen something they like. This staff has earned the trust. 

We had just recruited him last year

That’ll happen at times. Doesn’t do any good to only get guys that have a year or two left.
