I think @Leathernecks said it best a few weeks ago. Good stocks don't always go up. Get this hire right, get healthy and we can be on upward trend again next year. Absolutely. Anyone that assumed we were destined for regular top 12 finishes was beside themselves. imo The fact that we spent an entire season ranked should NOT go unnoticed. We aren't Iowa, Wisconsin, etc. To be those teams we have keeeeeep building. We caught fire w/some underrated dudes stepping up and becoming stars, but we did not have the depth and it wasn't sustainable. The last two recruiting classes we '21 and '22 are by FAR the best two classes we've ever had in terms of quality of player or at least on paper they are. We need to be a Kansas State. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season was a disaster no matter the reason. Honestly I just don't think it does that much. Playing time is there. Our coaches have shown they'll play kids early. In a weird way...we might have a good chance to land 5-6 transfers who (like last year) who see they could step right in and play ala DJ Matthews types. Now if we have another season like this next year I could see the 23 class starting to have some doubts but IU is in good hands leadership wise. We just had an injury filled bad year that all changed on a BS targeting call in Cincy game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn’t Kansas State rely heavily on JUCO’s for a long time? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously a guy like McCullough isn’t going anywhere but it’ll be interesting to see if some of the other guys are poaching targets for other schools.

The 4 years prior to this one we were 24-21 in our last 45 games over a 4 year span. That's actually pretty solid with all things considered, being IUFB and all. I don't expect the world like some do on here. Find a way to compete, we didn't this year. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IUJoe Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 I just saw Rod Carey was let go by Temple. He’s been an OC and an OL coach. I don’t know anything about his offense or if he’d be interested in coming back to IU, but thought I’d mention it in case anybody has any thoughts on him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I will add to the reasons, Penix should not have been playing. He was obviously not ready yet they threw him out there. That's on the staff.

He seems like he would be at the top of Coach Allen’s list, being a former IU football player and a very respectable OC resume’.

JMHO. In hindsight- he was there two years ago. After seeing the Washington hire, we had a special OC three years ago and his recommendation of Sheridan had value. Can't look back, just move forward. I have a feeling there is a plan and hopefully it has been in the works for awhile. Coach Allen is a leader and understands the situation and what he needs to do. Got to get out there and recruit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
