There is a lot that goes into being an athletic director of a Big 10 school, and Fred Glass will continue to do it all at the highest level until he retires at the end of the academic year. Those who point to the mediocrity of the basketball program relative to expectations as a Glass failure miss […]
Indiana Football – winners on and off the field as beer sales make game days safer

Indiana University adopted a sane attitude this season about alcohol consumption at football games, and their wisdom was rewarded. For decades, IU students and alums would binge drink during pregame tailgates so they could maintain their cool buzz throughout the four-hour game.

Indiana has not been a launching pad for football coaches in a long time, unless launching them into career graves counts. Many of the coaches at Indiana over the last half century ended their careers as a head coach after being unable to build success in Bloomington.

Indiana Football – bowl eligible and deserving of a heartfelt apology

I’m sorry. I was wrong. My evaluation of Tom Allen as Indiana’s football coach has been proven wrong by the 6-2 record the Hoosiers have put together this season. There is still work to be done, but 6-2 gives the Hoosiers bowl eligibility before Halloween for the first time since 1993. If Indiana can beat […]
