Usually by mid-July, I have a pretty good feel for the upcoming season.

Here's what I know for the quickly approaching '26-'27 year:

My weekly grocery bill has gone up that much in the past year. Have you bought steaks lately? Good Lord....

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Well, I can tell you honestly if you talk to 10 different people about the expectations of the 2026 team ... you'll get 10 very different answers....

IUP's game at Adamson (Oct. 24) will be played at 5 p.m.

This will be Cal's Homecoming game.

Slippery Rock visits Miller Stadium...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Seton Hill women's basketball HC has resigned.

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Seems most these days are 'open enrollment' so long as the check clears.

I can't fathom what an application/transcript must look like for...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

They'll get somebody decent. There are tons and tons of good assistants growing tired of being the clipboard holder by the day.

I think...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Hard to say ... very interesting time of the year to hire (especially when you aren't waiving much coin to entice)....

Uncle Sam will keep these schools alive for the foreseeable future. Closing one - while likely justified - would be messy.


As for...

I still don't understand the timing of his departure. As I recall, Spring Ball was already started. So, that leads to some questions.

One...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Well, Gannon is getting Easton at a major discount. He should be getting paid way more than that considering he just won a national title.

...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

I'd have guessed about 5'8", 175 lbs....

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Has Devin Whitlock signed anywhere yet?...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Agreed. They will get some decent candidates from the assistant ranks.

If Edinboro wanted to go (very) young, they could look at Luke Dyer....

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Typically, it's a whole hell of a lot cooler to be Batman than it is to be Robin.

However, I fully suspect this is Bazzoli's last season...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

Purely a hunch here ... but I think Rowan Carmichael's phone will be ringing a lot today.

I wouldn't mind him seeing a call from Indiana,...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

If we get more than two seasons out of a player that's a win. Chances are if they have any level of early success they will be gone.

Thinking...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

In late June ...

Wow...

[IUPbigINDIANS]

I'd say up through about 2007 or 2008 both had some really good food (by gas station standards).

It's been a steady decline (for both) since....
