OK I will respond to you directly and to the point. I think you are wrong. I think you are stuck in the past.

So how do you think Indiana is being successful?

Just go back and watch a few plays and it will be clear.

It is as clear as day if you just look

They’re hot, they have a chip on their shoulder and something to prove, they have the Heisman Trophy winner at QB, they played the portal well and all the stars are aligned. Again, ask me in 2027 if Cignetti has maintained this level because he’s tough.

Jose, I already know why they are successful. You are coming into the middle of a conversation.

You cannot separate toughness and discipline. They are 2 sides of the same coin.

Tough Ole Curt got drilled last year by OSU 38-15 and then by Notre Dame 27-17 in the first round.

I would not be totally surprised to see them completely get blown out by Oregon.

I recall the 2020 championship series when OSU absolutely destroyed Clemson in the first round and looked formidable. I knew that we had them in the finals, because OSU played its true championship game against Clemson. They had lost a close one to Clemson the year prior and were mad and focused. They unleashed a year of pent up anger onto Clemson. We came out the next week and handled OSU.

Wouldn’t be shocked if Indiana comes
Out unfocused next week.

I been trying to say this, sometime badly for months, even years (I saw this coming quit watching in 2919 when the dividend came in and the unlimited transfers etc. etc. any thinking person could see this coming.

The NFL signs players for 5 years, so if CFB becomes a year by year bidding war that will create chaos. It will create teams stealing players year by year but that creates a WHO GETS LUCKY (see Indiana) with it all clicking in that one year. Coaches can not impose their will on a team because they do nit have them 1.) long enough and 2.) If they try to set rules players are just going to ignore them and move on.

You also create jealousy between teammates, especially on the MONEY BAG TEAMS, teams like Indiana not so much, I doubt any got paid that much, save the one QB or so. They still have hunger to play hard, they have hope of making money in next years portal if nothing else. The MONEY BAG TEAMS have players who have made bank, and that is like some NFL players, once they get paid they get fat, lazy and cut.

All boats are sinking, the chaos caused this. Any team in the last few years Bama/LSU 2011 would have beaten by 50, they were disciplined, tough, hungry. These players have a bankroll, they have no hunger, no discipline, Indiana did not get great, everyone else got worse, in that CHAOS its just going to be whatever team clicks. These modern players are not going to listen to their coaches anymore.
