D-BONE Posted November 29, 2022 Report Share Posted November 29, 2022 (edited) That's 3 QB's in the portal? On one hand, at least none are a significant loss. On the other hand, can you argue with them not wanting to get the living sh#% beat out of them behind this o-line while likely suffering another excruciating year as B1G doormat?

IU has to take who it can get. I would say that if they can't get good players that is a pretty bad indictment on the HC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OLDIUFAN Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 3 hours ago, OGIUAndy said: They stuck with Bazelak way too long. It was obvious he was not accurate or mobile (at all). Playing someone who was one (Tuttle) or the other (Williams) much earlier and they most likely beat Maryland and Rutgers, then you're talking about a 6-6 season. I am not saying the coaching staff doesn't need to be replaced, it's those guys (CTA, Bell) who made these decisions. It cost them two games, it will cost them players, and it should cost them their jobs. They had enough talent to win at least those two games. That being said I don't think Penix would have lasted the season (again) at IU. He's no longer a real running threat and most likely would have been blown up at some point, same as Tuttle. I think you can add Neb to that list makes us 7/5. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 (edited) If 15 or so guys transfer, the positive side is that’s 15 spots we can fill. I doubt we will but I’d hit jucos hard (like a half dozen guys) and try to get some Cam Campers in here. Add some juice to our D line, S, husky, skill positions, IOL, and elsewhere. Guys ready to play. We can hit the portal and hopefully find a second string somewhere who’s better than his old team realizes. It’s going to take good scouting. We need guys that can come in and play right away. We need urgency with our additions. Edited November 30, 2022 by BobSaccamanno Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobSaccamanno Posted November 30, 2022 Report Share Posted November 30, 2022 I don’t know what Dexter’s situation is, but we don’t know how long he is out. It’s good that they like Sorsby but he won’t be ready. We have a true freshman coming from Ohio. I don’t know what’s out there at QB but I hope we get a vet in here who can help. Somebody who can move but also throw accurately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to know what the current players think of him.

If you believe the scuttlebutt - and it may well be total speculation - the team was heavily behind Tuttle heading into the season and the decision of who earned the starting gig out of the gate. Not sure how he handled the benching. Didn't seem to be any visible tension - from outside of course. Maybe he was relieved by that point being tired of being a punching bag for opposing pass rush.

We have other kickers. I wish him the best Gremel wasn’t he a walk on. Don’t know much about him. Jack Tuttle, didn’t get a fair shake this year! It had to be hard to watch from the side lines. How bad Connor played and yet he couldn’t get in the game! A team captain Connor Bazelak, to be fair our line didn’t help him, but he wasn’t the right guy for us! Missed a lot of open throws! He needs to move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a concern! We haven’t done well in the Portal. Look at Purdue grab a walk on running back and with in 3 games he’s a starter! Hiller should have never been retained. At Half time in Nebraska game a QB change need to happen. It all points at HC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s pretty clear the team was behind Tuttle. From what I have heard CB did a few things that I would not consider as supporting the team. I just would like to get a few more data points to back up what I was told. But in the end anything he did if true I put back on the coaching staff for allowing him to do so. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think it would be best to have Lucas WR and put him in the slot. I think McCulley with another off season should get better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's still learning the nuances of the position, but he has the build and athleticism to be very good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am worried about the RB position and hope Henderson comes back because after that I don't see a pure RB. To be Lucas isn't a true RB who you want to carry 20 times from the RB position.
