K Charles Campbell 

QB Grant Gremel 

QB Jack Tuttle 

and now Connor Bazelak has added his name to the list 

I get Campbell leaving, he did a great job for us and it’s time to move on. 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.

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.

Seriously.  I challenge anyone to watch Penix play tonight, or basically any game this season, and come up with an excuse as to why our offense was so bad last season if it wasn't coaching.  

I watched some he looked great! Our OC and offensive line were terrible! He wasn’t pressured much while I was watching.

You know Basketball brought in Thad Matta to help run the basketball program for a short period. Maybe we need that in football. Someone to help identify Big Ten talent and recruiting also the day to day stuff. 

Just my take! One thing the last few games showed was the OL got better after Hiller was fired. Another thing is if Dexter can’t comeback we need a Mobil QB. Are a accurate QB. After CB came in for Dexter you could see the receivers frustration of being open and him missing them badly. 
Seems like Allen doesn’t make position changes in coaches are players when he needs to. Hiller should have been let go a few years ago. By halftime at Neb we should have switched QBs probably Tuttle then moved to Dexter. 
we have a lot of issues that need to be addressed. Will the brain thrust of IU Football make the moves to jump this program forward! Will see. Not totally confident they will. 

What does IU need. Wow so much OL even though they improved the last several weeks. Another Mobil QB. Look at his coaching staff. 

What a different team we were after Dexter went down! Hopefully he makes a full recovery in time for next year! 
 

Hey , Steubenhoosier I hope to be more positive next year! I am positive this season is over!

Out of curiosity, why didn't we get to kick the extra point. If that score wod have put us down 1 we wod have kicked it. Also it pisses me off because on BTB contest I picked the score of 34-17. That one point would have gotten me an extra 10 points for getting IU score correct.

I believe time ran out! 

One score game! Come on Defense!

What has happened to our kicking game?

Connor isn’t looking like he’s going to get the job done!

100% the right decision to end the half. 

I agree go to halftime with the lead. Don’t want a pick six are interception an field goal. 99 yards would be really tough 

Damn! I hate to see this! 

Go Hoosiers, let’s finish this season on a high note! Beat Purdue!!!! 

I hope he does. That would make us a really tough team to play. Once we get into Big Ten Play defenses will get much tighter, so will have to wait and see. He looks good right now! 

Big Ten will be a beast again this year! 
IU game against Xavier a Technical was called on Malik for Taunting after his dunk basket. I thought that call was a little stiff. You could call that on almost every dunk. I know he said something,but the other player had no reaction an Malik didn’t keep talking to him. So have they changed the taunting rule. Will be interesting to see if any home teams will get that called on them! Hahaha

The offensive line did play better! Dexter looked awesome. The OC will need to open up the passing game to even out the offense, but we definitely looked better. 
All about hitting Juco an Portal for upgrades for next year! Would love to beat Purdue! Go Hoosiers

Crickets from some of the negative guys this morning. At least @D-BONEgave somewhat of a kudos. @OLDIUFANnowhere to be found. 
 

I get that the program has not met expectations and that it’s another year of a losing record. But when a team that has nothing but pride to play for comes back like they did, they deserve some respect. Constantly being negative becomes a drone of ignored noise 

Sorry, for not responding Steubenhoosier but like I said earlier I was traveling and would be able to watch the game. I am home now an watching the taped game! 
Very excited for this team to get this big win! Hopefully we can build on the   Momentum! 

I’ll watch the game, wishing for the best! Come on Hoosiers finish this season off on a high note! 

I’d say the silence is a sign of lack of interest! Not much excitement 

All this talk about getting a proven Coach is all true. problem is of who we are, I don’t believe it will happen.

I think it’s going to have to come from coach Allen and a great staff! Of course we will struggle to keep them. Allen needs to either Coach the team are be the DC not both. 

Coaches like that bring in better players immediately! Players that or  wanting to go in early NFL draft rounds. 
They also bring an immediate change in culture! All great coaches do! You play hard are don’t come here!

His time is up. Time to go. Was fun for a year or so….but we need less clapping and more winning. 

We know clapping don’t work went to many years clapping in Basketball with Clappy Crean!
