Took Cignetti 2 years to win the Big10 and make Indiana #1.
They captured lightning in a bottle. No one could have predicted this.
He needs to take his exams from home and never go back to Columbus, or even the state of Ohio.
You saw your hesiman trophy winner last night. First time I've watched Indiana this season; best qb i've seen this year by far. What you saw last night was a great defensive coordinator to do the Xs and Os, and a far superior Jimmy to run the offense. They won't have these guys in five years.Imagine what they'll be doing by the time his 5-year plan comes to fruition!
He beat Michigan- finally! That's all that really matters in Ohio. If he would have lost to Michigan AGAIN this year, his seat would have been very hot. He bought himself another couple years.
Agreed. I watched his interview after the game. Very awkward but sincere. Seems like a good guy.
"Should a Could a" called that as well as several Offensive holding in the first half against OSU. I was beginning to think they were getting a free pass until the quick whistle on QB forward progress that was called. What stands out the most to me is the hunger with which IU played. They looked less physically imposing than OSU, but man do they all run their guts out making plays on both sides of the ball. And what a stark contrast of IU's QB crying and clearly leading his team vs LS smiling after interception at the end of the CU game. Something is missing!?! not sure that can be coached.
Outside of a few years here and there, That "it" factor in Columbia has been missing for the last 50 years that I have been following gamecock football. I don't know what happens to our top 25 recruiting classes but as soon as they arrive in Cola, they don't play like top 25.
We're more forgiving; we allow at least 9 losses before requiring the coach be fired.But he still lost a game and I thought the 2025 CFB policy requires firing the coach when that happens?
I am, of course, being facetious but also pointing out how ridiculous things have become with the zero-tolerance-for-a-loss policy so many fans seem to adhere to these days.
It's been going on since before bottled water. Maybe it's in the regular water supply? Or just too much weed.It's in the bottled water they get on campus. It's also responsible for turning HS 3-point sharpshooters into bricklayers once they arrive.
Rankings don't measure heart! Desire to win. What makes me sick is seeing Mccleod out there playing for Georgia. And now we've lost Hardy- i thought he was going to be a stud, yet no playing time this year?? I don't get why we can's shore up the Bigs on each side of the ball???? Our last real dominate interior guy was Kinlaw. We have been closest to stable, solid, and good when we have strength up front. Ala Brandon Shell, etc...
