Indiana Football – Can the Hoosiers slay Bucky the Goliath tomorrow?
November 20, 2020

“And David put his hand in the bag and took out a stone and slung it. And it struck the Philistine on the head and he fell to the ground. Amen.” Can #9 Indiana beat #3 Ohio State tomorrow in the biggest game for the Hoosiers program in more than a quarter century? What could be […]

Indiana Basketball – Let’s not even talk about it until the beautiful football dream ends one way of the other!
November 16, 2020

Here we are nine days away from the start of college basketball season, and I’m still giving serious thought to the possibilities offered by Indiana University’s football team. I keep thinking, “This must be what it’s like to be a Notre Dame graduate.” You know, the Indiana program with legendary names like The Gipper, Rockne, […]

Indiana shuts out Sparty to stay undefeated! Fans need to get better expecting success
November 14, 2020

“What are you doing? Kick the field goal! Make it a four-score game!” – me to the TV as Indiana went for it on fourth and two from the Michigan State five yard-line, ahead 24-0 with 4:25 left in the third quarter. Something is wrong with me! Shutting out Michigan State in East Lansing is yet another […]

Indiana Football – 18 historical events that have occurred since last time IU Football ranked in the top 10!
November 9, 2020

It’s been a long time since the Indiana Hoosiers were ranked in college football’s top 10 – a really long time – even longer than since the last time prior to Saturday IU beat Michigan (1987). Last night, the latest AP Top 25 showed the 3-0 Hoosiers at #10. Here are some of the events […]

Indiana Football coach Tom Allen teaches players LEO – “Love Each Other” – and now he deserves fans’ love
November 3, 2020

LEO! Love each other! Nice life philosophy, although enough people have talked that talk without walking the walk that viewing those who proffer it are often viewed with suspicion. LEO is what Indiana University football coach Tom Allen says – a lot. When he took over from Kevin Wilson, Allen spoke passionately about love among those within […]

ONIONS! Tom Allen goes for two! Indiana beats a top 10 opponent for 1st time since 1987!
October 25, 2020

Since 1987, the Hoosiers played 42 top 10 teams, and lost to all of them. If eighth ranked Penn State played Indiana 43 times, the Nittany Lions would likely win 42. But that 43rd game came last night in Bloomington. The Hoosiers were outgained 488 yards to 211, but yards don’t always equate to points. […]

I promise to stay positive and upbeat, regardless of Colts, Pacers, and Indiana Basketball results
October 20, 2020

For as long as I can remember, I have been a guy who liked to call BS on cowardly management, corrupt policies, and bad mojo. Until today. Arrogance needed to be exposed as an unholy violation against humanity, or at least I used to think so. Dishonesty? It needs to be decried as the most repellent trait […]

Indiana loses Ballou, Rhea, James, DeBoer, Ramsey, Cronk & Hendershot, but not ready to point at Allen yet!
March 3, 2020

February and March are usually quiet months for Indiana Football. News from the football program usually creates no more than a small ripple across the Hoosier state. Not so much this year. Yesterday, we found out that freshman running back Sampson James entered his name in the transfer portal, but that might not have been the […]

Peyton Ramsey enters the transfer portal and will be immediately eligible to play elsewhere immediately
January 27, 2020

The quarterback room at Indiana University potentially got a little less crowded today. Incumbent IU starting quarterback Peyton Ramsey has entered his name in the NCAA’s transfer portal for the purpose of finding a new home for the 2020 season. If Ramsey chooses to leave Indiana for a program he perceives to a better fit, he will […]
