I don’t believe Rhule will ever accomplish an 11 win season and playoff birth here.
Which is what we were discussing.
I don’t care what cig does in year 3 because rhule will be eternally chasing his year 1
To me what we're discussing is who's the better coach. If Cignetti goes winless (your words) I have no idea how anyone could think he's still a better coach than 90%+ of college football coaches due to 1 season?
there's absolutely no question Cig is the better coach
look at his career vs our .500 guy
The list of teams that have gone from no bowl to 8+ wins in 1-2 years under a new regime is very long
We just aren’t on it & make it look impossible
It's not hard to find instant success, given you have a good head coach at the helm. Excuse me for leaving the last part without saying. Almost forgot how explicit I need to be with this board given the struggles with collective competence.
Dude would rather play in a Satterfield offense than a Holgorsen offense?
Okey dokey.
Over the past 10 years I believe Indiana has exceeded our number of wins, bowl appearances and times ranked. Yet for some reason you think we’re a quick fix?
I think the tweet was referring to Oklahoma's recent hiring of Washington State's OC, Ben Arbuckle. Arbuckle is 29 and led Washington State's offense to No. 12 nationally in scoring offense, No. 9 in passing efficiency and No. 22 in total offense. He was Cam Ward's OC at Washington State last year. The year before that, he was the co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Western Kentucky, where their quarterback led the country in passing yards. Don't be surprised if Arbuckle brings Washington State's quarterback with him to Oklahoma. As a sophomore this year, he threw for he 3,139 yards and 29 touchdowns
We just disagree on who the better coach would be if Cignetti goes winless (again, your words) in his remaining Indiana tenure.
It depends on what Indiana does in the playoffs. Do you remember the coach for the 2022-2023 national championship runner-up? Would you want him as our coach?
I’ll save you the bs.
Kong - “jury is still out on Fickell”
Also Kong - “Matt is a fat loser”
One inherited a 7-6 team, a team that is missing a bowl for the first time in 23 years
One is taking our team bowling for the first time in 8 years.
Instant success as Indiana? Find me another Indiana example of a perennial loser and define success.
As you said it’s Indiana - so find another with 6 losing seasons that win 11 games year 1. I’ll wait. Stop acting like it’s the norm and we are the outliers.
Oh, I agree. But he won so many games in 2021 and winners win and are awesome compared to our guy.
But then a few years later they produce a losing season and lose to our loser so then he must totally suck.
It's hard keeping up on who is awesome and who completely sucks and which years count and which don't.
@oldjar07 is another constant spewer of period blood on this board. He’s just not as loud as the other one.
Don’t forget to thump your chest to be like KongI’ll save you the bs.

“…but it's not hard to have instant success with the current college football landscape.”
“It’s not hard to find instant success.”
It's not hard to find instant success... given you have a good coaching staff. That was my caveat. We didn't have a good coaching staff in Rhule's first two years. I hope and think it's very possible he could put one together this off-season. And on-field success would soon follow. We will see.
Indiana 33-49 from 2017-2023 2 bowl appearances
Nebraska 29-54 from 2017-2023 0 bowl appearances
just some facts to share
We all agree Indiana has had instant success. If 11-1 is the bar - then show me the long list of teams that makes the process of turning a program so easy. My point - Indiana’s year is exceptional but is extremely rare.
