Commentary: Jennifer Brinegar, who spent the past 12 years working on Indiana's compliance issues, will become senior assistant athletic director for recruiting and enrollment... rousseauwrites@aol.com (Robert Rousseau) Indiana Hoosiers 2008-06-05T19:50:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/11499 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/11499 Mark Deal has been named Indiana University's associate director of football operations. Commentary: Deal played for the Hoosiers from 1975-78. He also coached there in 1979 and again from 1996-99. Most recently, he was the assistant director of development for the Indiana University Varsity Club. Interestingly, Deal had roots to the school before ever stepping foot on campus; his father,... rousseauwrites@aol.com (Robert Rousseau) Indiana Hoosiers 2008-06-05T19:39:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/11328 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/11328 Former high school football star Jerimy Finch said he plans to leave Florida and play for Indiana in 2009. Commentary: Finch has had a change of heart before. During recruiting he originally committed to the Michigan Wolverines and then the Hoosiers before finally settling on the Gators in 2007. Now he reports that he has enrolled in online courses at Indiana and plans to register for the... rousseauwrites@aol.com (Robert Rousseau) Indiana Hoosiers 2008-05-24T13:48:00-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9175 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9175 Which Indiana Hoosiers athletic team has won twice as many national championships as the football team and has had winning seasons over the last 13 years? That's right, the IU soccer team. Coincidentally, it is a team that relies primarily on leg-strength and kicking accuracy, which is, in spite of all the flaws the football team has shown in recent years, arguably the Hoosiers' most glaring... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-07-21T04:02:43-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9154 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9154 From an outside perspective, it's easy for one to assume that the Indiana Hoosiers can have success without the use of second-team All-Big Ten wide receiver James Hardy, but those close to the program and familiar with IU's history know that Hardy's play will be the main determinant for the Hoosiers' success in 2006. At this point, however, it appears that Hardy will not miss much time as a... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-07-12T04:29:22-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9137 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9137 The Big Ten is full of marquee pitch-and-catch duos -- Troy Smith to Anthony Gonzalez at Ohio State, Chad Henne to Steve Breaston at Michigan, Curtis Painter to Kyle Ingraham at Purdue -- but none were any more effective last year than the Blake Powers/James Hardy connection at Indiana. Just ask the University of Iowa secondary. The Hawkeyes beat Indiana, 38-21, last season, but Powers -- a... writersbridge@hotmail.com (Darrell Laurant) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-07-06T13:51:31-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9127 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9127 With a forty-five year old stadium, a woefully bad team, as well as an arrogant and out-of-touch administration, it's getting awfully hard to be an IU football fan. As if the worst team in the Big Ten could be harder to watch, the athletic department at IU continues to enforce policy that encourages contempt and outrage from a fan base that may well be at the end of its rope. The AD has yet to... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-06-30T04:43:46-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9108 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9108 As bad as IU's defense was last year and frankly for the past ten years, isn't it time for the Hoosiers to hire a real defensive coordinator? It may be a little early to call for the axe, but if the defense doesn't improve substantially in 2006, the Hoosiers will have to reevaluate some things. Coach Terry Hoeppner's nepotistic hires from Miami (Ohio) University are not going to get it done in... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-06-22T04:54:44-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9077 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9077 While former IU players rarely get much attention in the hype leading up to draft day, and even more rarely are drafted in the early rounds, a number of former Indiana Hoosiers are making names for themselves in the NFL, with this year's class looking to do the same. In the past, even Hoosier greats like Anthony Thompson and Trent Green weren't considered "first-round talents." Like their... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-06-12T04:09:13-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9060 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9060 The more excited Indiana Hoosiers fans get about the offense, the more they seem to forget about IU's biggest problem...the defense. After all the excited talk about coach Hoeppner's spread attack, about how the O-line should hold up with Notre Dame transfer Chauncey Incarnato and some talented underclassmen filling in for departed seniors Isaac Sowells at tackle and Adam Hines at guard, and the... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-06-05T04:30:39-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9040 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/9040 Despite the considerable success of coach Terry Hoeppner's spread offense last year, the Indiana Hoosiers never seemed to get their running game going. And with the departure of senior running backs Chris Taylor and Yamar Washington, one would expect a similar, if not worse, running game this year. But the staff has a new weapon...or rather, an old weapon lining up at a different position.

The basketball season ends, and the slow, recently more painful offseason begins. At first they try to recover, to explain why the Hoosiers came up short, but like their baseball brethren in Chicago, these thoughts are quickly followed by "wait till next year." Indiana loves its basketball and barely notices IU football...but that's because over the last decade, IU... brmmoore@indiana.edu (Brandon Moore) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-05-22T04:09:18-05:00 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/8879 http://www.realfootball365.com/articles/indiana/8879 College football has its own form of March Madness. It's called unrealistic optimism. This time of year, every team is undefeated and -- if its publicity department can be believed -- a strong candidate for the national championship. Take this press release on the Indiana University site, for example. It begins: "Head coach Terry Hoeppner helped re-energize the Indiana football program in... writersbridge@hotmail.com (Darrell Laurant) Indiana Hoosiers 2006-03-21T14:22:08-05:00
