Which also confirms what we've been saying the last couple years, the talent on this team looks better, but importantly, that should also yield some results on the field. And we're talking modest results. Nobody's clamoring for consistent B1G contenders, let alone eve consistent bowl eligibility. We're just talking about getting a few wins. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know we haven't but we should be as good as NW or Maryland. Growing up UW and NW was the laughing stock of the big ten in both football and basketball.

Wisconsin damn near got RMK back in the late 60s. We had Myles Brand. We all know what happened with him.

bronkonagurski Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 The last 3 games proved we are the biggest loser in the conference yet again. 3 conference wins combined the last 3 seasons is awful. I don't know what I expect Dolson to do but I'll certainly understand moving on to a different coach. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He left IU in 2002 and has been dead since 2009. I understand people like to play the blame game, but blaming Myles Brand 21 years after the fact is a bit of a stretch. You can blame administration, but let's blame those in charge the last 20 years. IU either needs to leave the BIG or start throwing some dough at the football program. And that needs to start tomorrow. Not Monday, not next week. Tomorrow. Pay Allen off and get a real program builder and some one to light a fire under the program. Otherwise, what's really the point?

Luckily we have a President who knows and understands the value of a good football program works in harmony with the school not adversarial. If I were making my prediction now.

IU Scott Posted November 25, 2023 Report Share Posted November 25, 2023 I wish the post game show was done by guys who aren't affiliated with IU. The callers call in and vent but the host just tries the sugar coat everything. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IU totally whiffed on Deboer. It should have been obvious he was the reason for 2019 and 2020. He's got UW undefeated and probably in the playoffs and Penix a Heisman candidate.

I don't really consider it living in the past. I was making a comparison to UW and the decisions they made that led to consistent success and IUs decisions over a similar time frame. Like @Seeking6said, we have a president now that understands the value of successful sports programs so hopefully that translates on the field/floor. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
