THE IUP Football Thread

[iupgroundhog]

Aiden Marshall, one of the young OL trying to get in to the mix this Fall, suffered a leg injury yesterday and was carted off the field.

The extent of the injury is unknown. Hopefully it was precautionary. But, the cart is typically not a good thing.

So, Tort could now be adding (2) OL to the post-Spring shopping schedule (they've been looking for one).

Hope it's not too serious.

Great. I think the PSAC (please help SteveMurray) should recommend everyone play evening or late afternoon games until at least October. This has to play some part in Rock drawing as well as they do.

Perhaps the first ever recruiting post for the band, but, nonetheless.

I saw on social media that IUP has (70) incoming freshmen joining the marching band this summer. I'm not even sure they had that many in the whole band last year.

Everything changed for the band last year, football-wise, under the new director.

The next step is for IUP to take the band on key road trips -- in particular to up near Butler this Fall.

If he can get the band today in the ball park of Doc's best bands...I will be giddy.

I think 1989 was his best band....the best show.

THIS...is IUP.

UC-San Diego has a chancellor named Pradeep Khosla who has been in that position since 2012. I don't see football coach at Edinboro on his curriculum vitae.

IUP wins its 4th Pee Sack title this year and probably won’t change how rigged the Dixon Trophy is against IUP.

Which QB left Spring Ball in the lead to be QB2 this Fall?

Is this a rhetorical question?

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Is this a rhetorical question?

No. Why? We obviously know who the starter will be. But this No. 2 spot (providing they both stay) should be pretty interesting.

Two QBs competed in the Spring. I'm curious who has the lead for the No. 2 spot heading in to Fall Camp.
