Cbp4IU Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 It seems Coach Cigs is targeting a lot of speed so far at the skills positions. Personally I love it. Jaylin Lucas will thrive in this offense if he stays Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btownqb Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 Sticking to talking about Cignetti is going to be the best way for this thread to operate.

68Hoosier Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 So how does this hire feel different to everyone. I have seen some post about this but wanted to get the gut feel. I can see how it feels different that Allen but not sure on the Wilson front. He seemed like a guy that could come in and make the right moves, but I never seen it IMO. I feel good about this one but can't put my finger on it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen left IU in a significantly better spot than Lynch. Hard for me to compare it all. I would argue we for sure saw it under Wilson, but his stupidity negated the chance to for him to continue to build. Wilson was bringing in some talent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilson had an incident in McNutt the first day on the job from what I recall, which may have soured some. CCC probably also gave people more of the bob knight vibe with his abrasiveness to the media that many seem to appreciate. Wilson wasn't quite as self promoting from what I recall and CCC has a ready made staff and head coaching history to somewhat back up the bravado. And CCC gets the benefit of the portal to fill up his roster immediately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted December 4, 2023 Report Share Posted December 4, 2023 Don Fisher was on with Jim Coyle this morning. Really touted Pat Kuntz. Said he has known him for a long time, really likes him. "He gets after it." 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel the same way about CCC as when we hired Deboer. The more you look into his resume, the more you realize he just keeps winning. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The more you look into his resume, the more you realize he just keeps winning. I'm playing the Devil's advocate here....It's hard for me to wrap my head around seeing IU go from a bottom dweller to a team with a winning record. It's been this way for so long, with so many different coaches. What is so different and special about Coach Cignetti? I'm sure there are current IU players and IU portal players that feel that way too. I am all in on what Coach Cignetti is bringing. He's not going to change the way he does things, just because it's the mighty BIGTEN. If anything, IMO, he wants to "shock the world" on how we're going to see IU next year and in the future. I'm sure he's heard how bad IU has been for decades and how many coaches have vowed to turn the program around and failed. Coach Cig is not the soft, fuzzy and sensitive coach we are used seeing and that may turn some fans and players off. However, his commitment to a consistent plan, method and style of coaching as well as playing has been obvious. It will take time, energy and effort to build what he wants and is accustomed to. I can't wait to see he has in store for IU. GO IU! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
