Hoosier4Life53 Posted October 12 Report Share Posted October 12 Good read from ESPN Cignetti, Indiana a model for programs seeking turnarounds Indiana's first 6-0 start since 1967, under a first-year coach in Curt Cignetti, carries a natural element of shock. The Hoosiers simply don't do this, regardless of who is leading their program. But what stood out to me in watching Indiana become the nation's first -- and, amazingly, only -- bowl-eligible team is how unfazed the team looks. Indiana is exceptionally well-coached by Cignetti and his staff. The offense is undeniably legitimate, from quarterback Kurtis Rourke to wide receiver Elijah Sarratt to a barrage of backs to an offensive line that doesn't get nearly enough credit. Indiana is a machine right now, built by Cignetti, through mostly veteran transfers who understand their roles, the schemes and don't flinch. Programs that are trying to flip their fortunes in the transfer portal/NIL era should model themselves after Indiana, which found a veteran, proven coach in Cignetti and armed him with the resources to completely change the roster in one offseason. Indiana might not be a true CFP contender -- its second-half schedule includes Ohio State, Nebraska, Washington and Michigan -- but the team is not a fluke and is likely the envy of many. -- Adam Rittenberg 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tdhoosier Posted Friday at 01:30 PM Report Share Posted Friday at 01:30 PM this got buried in another thread, but I wanted to post it here in case anybody missed it. Many coaches use 'process' as a cliche. I love how cig lives and breathes it. Do what you gotta do. Be efficient. Let the results take care of themselves. I have bad knees and even I want to run through a wall for this guy, because while he's tough, he clearly has a great deal of respect for his players. When respect is a 2 way street, good things happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IowaHoosierFan Posted Sunday at 01:19 AM Report Share Posted Sunday at 01:19 AM I wouldn't say pay him whatever he wants for a few more years, but definitely give him as much money as he needs to keep up what he has started. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know man. He clearly cares about his staff. We've got Tayvon and Tyler Cherry coming up. We seem pretty stacked. I think this season isn't a one off. We're in for a wild ride. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We aren't in a position to gamble honestly. You pay him more and also up the buyout in the process. If he does this another year or two a big boy could call. If Kirby Smart or someone like that jumps to the NFL, Cignetti is going to be on shortlists 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, other schools are going to try to poach coach Cignetti. I think he's here to stay. Sure, he could go to FSU or someplace and win. But based on his history and things he's said I think he wants to win here just to prove it can be done and show what he's capable of. Sorry. Still riding yesterday's high.
