Hoosierinbham Posted November 18, 2022 Report Share Posted November 18, 2022 The optimist in me would love to see Dexter, and some changes on the offensive line, put up points and win the last two games. If we can create some momentum by winning, think Allen would get a other year to hit the transfer portal hard and try to make major improvement. If we lose out against two mediocre teams, the team has obviously quit and changes need to be made. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess it was a rumor from the other board. I actually posted that. But haven't heard much since, like whether it's valid or not.

It just makes it worse and worse. Edited November 18, 2022 by BobSaccamanno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But just go for broke. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have much of a connection to Indiana and has been at two schools in three years. He's not leaving for a third job within a few years, especially for a program like IU. Now if a top ten blue blood offered, he'd leave and probably will. He's having a hell of a first season at UW. But he's not leaving to come back to IU. But like I mentioned previously, I wouldn't care who the hire was as long as it got some real attention. https://twitter.com/ESPNRittenberg/status/1595200922690457600 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Indiana basketball has always been more popular and people care about IU basketball more. Saying that what did IU sell their souls for IU basketball. Especially the last 20+ years they have out plenty of money into the football program. Might have been a bad decision but we do pay our football coach over 5 mil a year which is like top 25 in the country.

Like I have said over and over, I see no reason why we can't be on the same level of the other mid pack teams in the conference. Something is systematically wrong at IU. Maybe we just don't have the will and are content to wait for basketball season each year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Someone said earlier that something is "systematically wrong". They'd be correct. Indiana has screwed up hires time after time, decade after decade. They can't get out of their own way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bronkonagurski Posted November 27, 2022 Report Share Posted November 27, 2022 (edited) I appreciate what Coach Mallory did for the program but I think some of you forget what those last years was like. I was there, I was on campus. I remember it. 3-21 in conference play his last 3 years (technically bumped up to 4-20 due a Sparty forfeit after-the-fact). There was absolutely no sign of it getting any better. My hindsight take-away is they should have started pouring money into better facilities and whatnot in 1987 when the iron was hot instead of waiting nearly 30 years. Mallory could have been our Barry Alvarez with the right support in the moment. Edited November 27, 2022 by bronkonagurski 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Indykev Posted November 28, 2022 Report Share Posted November 28, 2022 Tom Allen to Auburn as DC. Great fit for him. If he cared about IU he would resign today. Wishful thinking. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DC2345 Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 Tom Allen should probably start looking around if he hasn’t already. If he could get another job that would probably be the best for both parties but unfortunately that’s probably not going to happen. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think they will but he might be smart to get out before he gets fired like Mike White did going from Florida to Georgia. Allen isn’t getting another power 5 job but he might be able to land a smaller gig and no there’s a better chance of myself hitting the lottery than Allen turning things around. His time is running out. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
