IU stats that sound unbelievable.
Mendoza playoffs 8 TDs, 5 incompletions.
Thrown more TDs than incompletions five times this year.
Zero 5* players and only seven 4*.
Their Blue Chip ratio (percentage of 4-5*s from the last 4 signing classes) is 8%, CFB championship contenders are usually around 70%
Everyone wants to be a beast...until its time to do what beasts do.

I am a Hoosier fan now! So impressive with what they have accomplished so far!

And a defense giving up 10 ppg. 2019 LSU was one of the best college football teams ever but they gave up 22 ppg.

So many of Indiana?s completions are pinpoint throws on the sidelines, they?re just amazing.
-
Very well coached, they like older and more mature players, they make very few mistakes, they have a plan and they execute it.
-
They are a team of destiny. They don't come around all that often.
There are going to be several talking heads next week saying things like:
Miami and their defense blah blah blah
and
The Canes playing at home in the NC, history tells us blah blah blah
It won't matter, Indiana is going to embarrass them.

And they need to roll Lee Corso out on the field as Honorary CPT.
-
I’m curious to see what Curt can do with the players he’s going to be able to bring in now.

This is intellectual football and it's offering a glimpse into the path forward.

No doubt they are showing the way; Cigneti is a trailblazer. He got guys out of FCS and made them superstars. We need to study his way and duplicate.

Yep amazing. Bama had 65 4-5 stars, Indiana 8 - 4 stars and everyone saw what happened. If Indiana with 0 football history can do this anyone can, yes MSU.

It has been really entertaining seeing the “stars is all that matter” crowd make excuses for this and downplay Cig. They never thought they would see the day that a coach would just come in and have that theory thrown out the window. Now they are scrambling with trying to find any excuse to refute it and they have nothing.
