Return to the Glory Days: An Indiana Hoosiers Dynasty

[packersfan4eva]

Not a lot of great pickups in recruiting, but you still got some good recruits in-season. Surprised Willis transferred, but he probably wouldn't play next year anyway. !ADIOS AMIGO!

Yea. since i got all my great recruits during the season, that all my recruits were shit in the off-season. yea, willis transferred, and he would only play sparingly this season. so i can see why he left.

Off-Season Report: Players Cut

Bloomington, IN - The Indiana coaching staff looked over it's 79-man roster yesterday and realized that they were above the 70-man limit. They went to work, cutting down the roster to the maximum requirement. "It was tough cutting all these players," said coach Thompson. "Even worse than that was telling the cut players that they couldn't play for us any longer. The look on their faces is horrendous, and I hate to see them go. This is the worst part of coaching."

Here is the list of players cut from the 2011-2012 Indiana Hoosiers football roster.

Damn you actually had to cut some decent players.

Ish. They were all 4th or 5th stringers except the punter, who was a backup. but no one needs a backup punter, so im not worried about him. the only player im really sad to see go is jeff johnson. he was all right. thanks for checkin in though

Could you tell me how to get that chart thing please? lol

do you mean the table? if so, you do it like this.

[table="head"]type something here, such has "Name", then put a |. then put something else here, and another |. then another category, and a |. when you finished your title row, click enter. your header should look like this:

[table="head"]Name|Age|Touchdowns|Interceptions


then, you fill in the categories, like so

John Williams|56|2|5

after finishing that person's stats, push enter so it looks like this.

[table="head"]Name|Age|Touchdowns|Interceptions
John Williams|56|2|5

keep entering information and entering until you have finished your table.

it will end up looking like this


[table="head"]Name|Age|Touchdowns|Interceptions
John Williams|56|2|5
Rick Jacobs|42|3|4
John Smith|53|4|8
Alex Smith|59|12|1

when you're all done, type in the following: [ / table ] (except without spaces).

it will then create a table

[packersfan4eva]

2011-2012 Preseason: Offensive Preview

Quarterbacks
Jammone Chester is the Hoosiers lone bright spot at quarterback (96 overall), because Teddy Schell (senior) and Edward Wright-Baker (sophmore), have had no prior playing experience. With Chester at the helm, however, the quarterback position should be one of the stronger offensive positions.
RATING: B+

Halfbacks
Indiana's halfbacks, along with the receiving core, are the deepest and most talented positions on Indiana's offense. Led by Deleon Eskridge (92 overall) and Zach Davis-Walker (90 overall), the Hoosiers have an amazing balance of backs. Eskridge is more of a speed back, and his main skill is running around the line of toss and stretch plays. Davis-Walker, on the other hand, loves to pound the ball up the middle. This balance will create huge openings in the defense, which will allow Indiana to run/pass the ball with more efficiency.
Rating: A+

Fullbacks

Laugh all you want, because no one is stopping you. Indiana--for the second year in a row--has one of the worst group of fullbacks in the nation. Since they only have one man for the job, he gets to start immediately. The starter? Don Brown, a freshman from Gary, Indiana. His 71 overall might be an overstatement, considering he's one of the smallest men on the team. In this department, Indiana is just terrible...again....
Rating: D-

Wide Receivers

Although the depth is lacking in the receiving department, the starters are some of the best receivers in the country. Damarlo Belcher, the reigning Big 10 Receiver of the Year, is expected to do great things this year. He is 2nd in the Preseason Heisman Watch List, and is a 1st Team All-American. Duwyce Wilson, one of the top returners in the country, is a very underrated receiver. He is almost as good at catching as he is at returning kicks, which is saying a lot. Charles Love is enjoying his first year as a starter (87 overall), Matt Ernest is looking to improve on his 4th spot (85 overall), and the rest are too young to tell. Overall, this group of kids is one of the best in the Big 10.
Rating: A-

Offensive Line
The offensive line is a little weaker than last year since they lost three starters, but their are still a formidable opponent. Of course, you are only as strong as your weakest link, and J.J. fine is a pretty weak starter. With only a 78 overall and one of the worst bench presses on the team, he will give up a lot of sacks this year. It is up to the rest of the team to make up for his failures. Andrew McDonald (96 overall) is the best player on the entire Hoosiers team, and Will Matte and John Wilson provide great protection at the center position. Donald Keller is most known for his duties as a goal line tight end, but he is great at the right tackle position. Josh Hager doesn't get much publicity, but he is one of the most reliable offensive linemen in the country.
Rating: B+

2011-2012 Preseason: Special Teams Preview

Kicker


Mitch Ewald, the reigning Kicker of the Year, is once again Indiana's top special teams player. He can kick the ball extremely far, he can kick it very accurately, and he can kick the ball well in any type of climate. He's one of the best all-around kickers in the NCAA this season, possibly in the history of college football.
Rating: A+

Punter


Chris Hagerup never quite lived up to his potential, but he is hoping for a stellar season this year. "This is my last year, and I want to make the most of it," he said. Even though he doesn't have very many opportunities to punt (he punted a total of 39 times last year, which was last in the NCAA for starting punters), he punted the ball an average of 53.2 yards per kick, which was the best in the NCAA. If he gets more opportunities to punt, he could be one of the best punters this year.
Rating: A-

Kick/Punt Returners


The overall ratings for the players look a lot better than they really are, I'm sorry to announce. Every single team in the NCAA has at least one player with a 97 overall or bettter in the returning column. But nevertheless, this group of kids is still an outstanding bunch. Duwyce Wilson, 12th last year in the Returner of the Year award voting, returns for his Junior year with a vengeance; he has been voted 12th two years in a row for the award. Damarlo Belcher is almost as good as Wilson is, returning one of his kicks last year for a touchdown. Deleon Eskridge was 2nd in the Returner of the Year award two years ago while playing at Minnesota, but seems to have lost a little bit of his touch since then.
Rating: A-

Overall Special Teams Rating: A
