@MisterBamboozle @Jared_Kelly7 In ‘25 IU ranked #12 in rushing offense while TCU ranked #100. Not sure that ranking qualifies as they ran the ball well. Even a “decent” rush game doesn’t cut it if you want to be elite.

@Jared_Kelly7 Except TCU ran the ball well. Josh Hoover just sucks
English
Indiana QB Josh Hoover caught some flack from TCU coach Sonny Dykes for his turnovers.
Curt Cignetti had Hoover's back this afternoon:
"When Josh got here, he met his two new best friends: Great defense and a really good run game.
"And he was never the same after that." #iufb

@Hoosier_Huddle This is why I don’t even get excited with recruiting anymore. You can never tell who will stay committed through signing day. Happens every year.

Four-star WR from Louisville backs off #iufb pledge

BREAKING: Four-Star WR Ja’Hyde Brown has Decommitted from Indiana, he tells me for @Rivals The 5’10 185 WR had been Committed to the Hoosiers since January He currently holds a total of 27 offers on3.com/rivals/jahyde-…

@ColinMcMahon31 He should have taken the Jim Mora approach to answering that question. PLAYOFFS?!? This team hasn’t earned a spot in the tourney and doesn’t deserve to take away a spot. Focus on getting better pieces to make a run next year.

After losing to Northwestern in the Big Ten Tournament, Darian DeVries was asked to give his pitch for #iubb to be included in the NCAA Tournament.
His answer:
“When you think about being on the bubble and like if you put other bubble teams in those same situations, we've been able to be really competitive despite that challenging schedule.“
Full quote 👇

@KirkwoodandDunn He also handed us the national championship with that last pick. Why boo him? He should be thanked! 😆
English
Can’t believe Indiana fans would boo Carson Beck at the Combine, he has represented the sport so well, always shown class and sportsma… OPE.
English
@Hoosier_Huddle @ItzYonderr Not sure about that. @Oregon, @Iowa, & @Penn State for ‘25. I don’t see 3 games tougher than that. The only questionable road test is Michigan and maybe Washington depending on how their qb drama plays out. That schedule looks much more favorable than 2025 to me.
English
@ItzYonderr "Experts" will say it is harder until IU starts 5-0 or better and then they'll say "well everyone stinks".
English
I personally think this schedule is harder than 2025’s. OSU then @ Mich is tough. bye before USC is great but then turn around to play in Seattle in what most likely will be awful weather. 12-0 possible for sure. But without seeing our team, conservatively 1-2 losses.

@DangeloPondss Congratulations D’Angelo! Hoosier nation is proud of you and excited to watch your success in the NFL. Forever grateful for your help bringing a natty to Bloomington.

@GeauxDuck This dude is going through the portal process like a high school kid. Looks like he is only seeking attention. He needs to pick a school and be done. I wouldn’t want him. He has flaws in his game and looks like someone who plans to portal every year for the attention.
English
@ClasslessVol Derek Owings is an awesome s&c coach. So, congrats. Winning is about the sum of all the parts. Cig knows what he’s doing. Tino left last year and we brought in Whitmer who just coached Mendoza to a heisman. UT just got a little better, but IU will find someone exceptional.
English
@JakeCrain_ Technically, he said it at his first “signing day” presser. Not his “opening presser”. It was his frustrated response to being asked the same question by reporters 15 times as to how he will sell the program to future recruits.
English
Saying “I win just google me” at your opening presser then beating ass to go 16-0 and win the natty at Indiana is one of the most gangster things to ever happen.
English
@RonCordry91537 @IndianaHQ I’m glad you’re not making any decisions related to IU sports. Ok, let’s throw away the best coach in modern football history because your feelings are hurt that a first year bb coach isn’t going undefeated. All of y’all saying that sit the nc game out. You don’t rep IU faithful
English
@IndianaHQ AD Dolson is THE problem.
DeVries was not on anyone's list for coaches to hire. It's why Dolson got Cig to publicly say he'd leave IU if Dolson's gone.
Dolson's the one who messed up #iubb program. He owns it.
Regardless of the Cig hire, I'd fire Dolson in a NY nanosecond!
English
Darian DeVries to the media postgame: "As we get in the middle of the second half, 10-12 minutes to go, it's been consistent in the last three games, we look fatigued."
My two cents: IU had TWO games between Dec. 14 and Jan. 3. Both were Q-4. Fatigue's an issue?? #iubb
English
@MiamiCanes1971 It’s been full before 2024. Rarely, but it happened. The best example I can give where it wasn’t a bunch of Ohio State fans is when I was there in 2007 against Purdue. Coach Hep had passed away the summer before and they needed a win to “Play 13”. Amazing atmosphere pre Cig.
English
Had to make a fake AI image to pretend that stadium was EVER full before the year 2024. Nasty work

The take of #IUFB only having bandwagon fans is pure ignorance. We lived and thrived in college football hell for generations. Our unwavering support of this team, despite decades of losing, is more passion than any other fan base could ever muster. #NeverDaunted
English
@JohnMassingale4 Every fanbase has bandwagon fans. I’m not even sure why this is a discussion. Have a couple of down years and you will see attendance dwindle for any program. There is a core of every group who will remain devoted. Whether there are bandwagon or new fans who cares?
English
Absolute joke. No one believes this. Not even most Indiana fans.

@GrantReacts1 75 is Zen Michalski. He isn’t a starter. He is an Ohio State transfer who has backfilled for injuries and is a depth player. Benson was banged up at the end of the season. Carter Smith has allowed 5 pressures and 0 sacks all season. lol
English
Caden Curry made the right tackle hit a 3 point stance mid play.

This is unfair, but I have a narrative I want to entertain... Lanning had an opportunity after that Rose Bowl debacle to make a staff change, and he did not. He had an opportunity to do the same thing here, especially since the coordinators were leaving. Maybe I am overthinking this, but I'm lukewarm towards the internal promotions.

It’s official! — Chris Hampton is the new DC — Drew Mehringer is the new OC

@CFBwSam Pate picking against IU is a good thing. I get more nervous when everyone is picking IU to win. There’s always someone who goes against the masses so they can make themselves out as a genius in the off chance they are right. Pate is wrong as often as he is right. Not concerned
English
Watch this be wrong, and I have to eat my words (I don't think I will be), but this once again feels like an analyst slurping up Blue Chip Ratio as an axiom created by God rather than a general rule. I would have understood the pick more if he said, "I'm calling the upset," but he phrased it as if it wouldn't really be one.
English
@JLGallagher3 Bro is a troll. JMU has never played ND which means freeman has never beat Cig twice. Cig has only lost 2 games at IU and the other was against Ryan day. No one cares about ND. Y’all aren’t in the playoffs and have lost over twice as many games the past 2 years. 🤣
English
@Hoosier_Huddle Terrible news. Hope it doesn’t take focus away from the two teams playing.
English
It would help Lanning, Freeman, Smart, Day, and everyone else A LOT.

@Jared_Kelly7 Geez. People really need to get off CDD’s case and have patience. Especially the media. I see people asking for crean back who didn’t win more than 12 games until his 4th season. This man is in his 1st with a completely new team. Cig has us spoiled with unreasonable expectations.
English
Indiana has a second-half problem.
In 6 of the last 8 high-major games (incl. tonight), IU has been outscored after halftime.
The only two times IU won the second half: vs. Maryland & Penn State, bottom-three B1G teams.
IU runs out of gas or isn’t making adjustments. #iubb
