He completed like 65% at Missouri but with our OL it has given him the yips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 Put it perspective that the last time that Rutgers won a home game that my daughter was a sophomore at IU. Now she has graduated two years ago from grad school and is working. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My inner pessimist revels in thinking about all the fun and excruciating ways IU can find a way to lose. My crimson-colored glasses self says we win 20-16. I just stomped on the glasses. Little did I know the excruciating part would be quarters 2,3 & 4. Silly me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying folks haven't thought it or said it previously, but today, no. You know, jojo, everyone is just tired of seeing a continuation of ineptitude and clown coaching. And don't get me wrong, the administration is very much responsible for this as well. It's really everything that relates to IU football and is long, god awful history. Tom Allen, I'm sure is a good man, but IU is still a mess. 😐 Edited October 22, 2022 by jv1972iu 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoyeCowbell Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 CTA is blocking or making the throws, but he is responsible for who has the opportunity to do so. While last year was a product of injury this year is a result of a lack of production and accountability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steubenhoosier Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 We are good enough to be in most of these games. We have been close or ahead in the 4th quarter in each of the last 4 games. For whatever reason, we don’t have the ability to close out games. In part, I think we can’t sustain drives. Can’t eat up clock. Don’t know what the answer is. Change of coaches? We’ve been down that road so many times and the results don’t change. Talent influx? Maybe. Can we entice a higher level of talent to Bloomington? Not sure on that. May take huge NIL$$$ to do so, and not sure that we have it for football 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May take huge NIL$$$ to do so, and not sure that we have it for football I think it has to do with our offense being to fast of a pace and that leads to our defense being on the field to long. The longer the game goes the more tired the defense gets. Also it seems like our defense has trouble getting off the field on 3rd downs.

IU Scott Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 (edited) I guess I am bored and frustrated with IU football so I went back to 1970 which is the year I was born. I figured the record for each decade and it is not pretty. 70's 36-72-1 1 winning season 80's 49-64-2 3 winning seasons 90's 47-64-2 4 winning seasons 00's 39-78 1 winning seasons 10's 49-74 1 winning seasons 20's 11-17 1 winning seasons 12 bowl games Also I didn't count .500 record as a winning season Edited October 22, 2022 by IU Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 On offense we have to get more playmakers like Lucas who can make people miss in space. The catch by Swinton on the last possession where he got behind the defense should have been a TD but he isn't fast enough. I think it is time for us to get more mobile ay the QB post and not just a statue in the pocket. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steubenhoosier Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 So based on the historical information Scott posted… maybe our expectations are unrealistic. Maybe we’ll always be who we’ve been over the last 50 years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we’ll always be who we’ve been over the last 50 years. What is frustrating is that just a couple of years ago we played a New Year's day bowl against Ole Miss. We thought we were slighted because we weren't playing a top team. Two years later we are 3-5 and Ole Miss is 7-0 and ranked 7th in the country Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU Scott Posted October 22, 2022 Report Share Posted October 22, 2022 Coaches to consider if we have an opening. I know it won't happen this year but a guy can dream can't he. Gary Patterson - former TCU head coach and current consultant at Texas. Bill O'Brien former PSU and Texans head coach and current OC at Alabama. Paul Cryst former Pitt and UW head coach. We need experience head coaches and not some up and coming coordinator 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
