Preseason Emails: Coach of the Year: Patrick Bopp of Wisconsin has been named Coach of the Year for his performance this past season. Bopp started in 2001 at Southern Mississippi and was mediocre there. Then in 2014 he switched to Northern Illinois where he got better results and he is the Wisconsin coach since 2030 where his worst result was #13. The strange thing is that he was also Coach of the Year in 2030… Team Management : - Reggie Cox, a defensive end, blames the breakup of his relationship on a lack of free time during the past season. Hall of Fame inductions : - 12 guys are inducted into the College Hall of Fame and one is from Indiana in the person of TE Marco Greenburg. I’ll make a special chapter as we also have 2 more players inducted in the Indiana Hall of Fame : ILB Cornell Carpenter and QB Henry Whalen. Coach Movement : 4 schools hire head coaches from other Universities. Key Indicators: Academic Reputation: 64 (23rd) Prestige: 67 (22nd) Last edited by Alf : 03-19-2003 at 04:34 PM. |

Staff hiringEmails : The 4 schools that got their coaches hired away, hire new ones. Previous Seasons staff moves : 2036 : Defensive Coord 2035 : MA, NE, SW, NW 2034 : Syndicate Coord, MW 2033 : Offensive Coord, MA Meaning I can change not much : GL, SE, DS. And no available scout is better than our current crop thanks to Fido Helper, it took me less than 2 minutes… The only area where we could improve is MA scout. |

Recruiting Options and team managementNeed area We need another RB !!! Otherwise we are quite balanced List : QB, RB, FB, TE, WR, C, G, T, DE, DT, ILB, OLB, CB, S, DE, +1 free Time Management More study for stupid boys. Less study for bright guys. And Fido’s TCY Helper is a real time saviour ! Game Plan Adjusted for RB Wittich. PS : next post will be my 3000th, and he'll hopefully be an Indiana TCY VC post Last edited by Alf : 03-21-2003 at 11:27 AM. |

Seems to me that England should be backup RB, unless his secondaries suggest that he should not be. Currently only 2 points behind Nicklos, he will pass Niklos overall in one or two games.

Ding, ding, this is my 3,000th post ! Congrats RealDeal for asking a clever question. England is stuck at #4 because he is only good at avoiding fumbles (where Niklos is also good). Both Niklos and Rison are better (way better) than England at breakaway speed and that's the most important criteria for me at RB. Thanks for analysing though ! |

Week 1Our Game : #22 Indiana (0-0) (-12) vs #36 Iowa State (0-0) on TV5 TV is in Bloomington for our first season game. Let’s not disappoint. The first drive begins nicely thanks to Wittich and Valery but Wittich fumbles the ball away. 3 and out later, we recover the punt and are ready to score and I was right when WR Blades ran a reverse for our first TD : 7-0. We then recver the ball quickly and RB Witich makes his own TD : 14-0. Next one is a QB Valery TD pass to WR Sailer ! 21-0. Then Sonnier makes an INT in our end zone. The game flows easily so far ! And another RB Wittich TD : 28-0. Second negative action for us came on a Valery INT, however, they are quickly intercepted right after, and CB Buchanan runs it back for a TD : 35-0. QB Gaines is already on the field just before haftime. IT’s definitely backup time as our QB, RB, TE and WR mentioned are 2nd string players… quick sim … Final score : 49-0. Game Summary Code:

Dominating Win over what was supposed to be a decent Iowa State team.
I think the guys were fired up by getting the word Wisconsin & Michigan State aren't on the Schedule. If ever there was a year to make the Playoffs, this is the one.. Not to put too much pressure of ya, Alf.. By the way, I appreciate the thought in picking up a game with my alma mater, the University of Central Florida. Only problem is I don't want to see them get the snot knocked out of them, which I'm assuming will be the case. Better to whip up on the hated South Florida Bulls!! Now that would be fun!! Let's keep the momentum rolling into this big game with N.C. State. Too many times in the past the Wolfpack have had IU's number, although not much recently I believe... And not this year either.. GO IU!!!

Thanks guys for putting even more pressure We do have an easy schedule, but are starting a young inexperienced QB in Vallery and have a very raw kicker too.

Week 4Our Game : #10 NC State (2-0) at #21 Indiana (1-0) (-6) on TV1 We do get maximum TV exposure today as this is the only atchup between Top 25 teams ! Let’s play hard. I’l just do a quick sim as I’m leaving for basket-ball soon and want to give an update before. We begin by punting and then it’s score time for both teams as each team scores on their possession. Defenses seem to have stayed in the locker room today. However they lead 21-17 at halftime since they score 3 TDs whil we scored 2 TDs and 1 FG. Then it’s a complete reverse scenario in the second half as we hold them to 16 total yards and 0 points while we roll thanks to a perfect Vallery-Wittich duo. Those two look like potential NFL stars.

Week 5Time Management & Emails: 1 D- and 15 Ds. Coaching blocks awarded. Our Game : #21 Indiana (2-0) (-11) vs Illinois (1-2) on TV5 Guess our Top 25 ranking is finally appreciated by the TV guys. We should have an easy game today. We begin by punting and see them march on us when LB Whalen makes a spectacular interception. Howver, the series ends on downs as we do not kick a mid range FG since our kicker sucks… Both teams refuse to play today and Q1 ends on a 0-0 score. To begin Q2 Vallery is intercepted, but fortunately they stall on a 4th down. Finally RB Wittich wakes up and we take the lead 7-0. We felt comy before halftime but they convert another 4th down attempt and tie the score 7-7 before halftime… Wittich, Vallery and Sailer combine well for a nice first drive when QB Vallery is intercepted in their red zone. You can tell he is still young. But on the very next drive, we stop them and force them to punt when their punt is blocked by DT Cabrera and recovered by Illinois punter on his 2 yard line. Ball to Indiana. Then Vallery completes a TD pass to TE Jeffries. 14-7. It seems our engine has now started as we get luck recovering one of our punt, and converting it into another TD pass : 21-7. And another Vallery TD pass to Sailer this time : 28-7. To explain you how bad our kicking game is, PK Cash just missed a 29 yards attempt. Our defense makes wonders just after when we sack their QB and recover his fumble. Backup RB Niklos cashes in : 35-7. Game Over. Game Summary Code:
Indiana Stats Code:

Our defense is spectacular in the second half, we've outscored opponents 70-0 in the 3rd and 4th quarter... brings a smile to the face!

It's hard to argue with a team that allows 1.4 yards per carry - especially when running the 3-4!

"Game MVP: ILLN 50 Justin Chrysler with 14 tackles, 6 assists, 1 sack, 2 INTs"
Damn, that was a helluva game. What's this guy doing in Champaign instead of South Central Indiana? Great start Alf, and I concur with 3ric, it's great to see this team has the ability to turn it up to another level in the 2nd Half of ballgames. Now it's time to hit the road for the first time in the '37 Season. Let's jump all over mighty Michigan and Penn State early and put these one's away before Halftime.. GO IU!!

Week 6Recruits We lose 8 guys. Our Game : #21 Indiana (3-0) (-30) at Michigan (0-4) 30 points favorites. We should have another excellent showing today. They get the ball, punt straight away. We get the ball, 3 plays later, we score a TD : 7-0. Let’s hope this figures how the game will be today. Another drive, another TD : 14-0. Ah, finally Cash can kick some FGs : 17-0. LB Whalen makes an INT when Michigan was in a position to score. Cash, then displays his terrible talent as he misses a 33 yards FG. And Vallery is intercepted late in Q2 on a meaningless play. We play very poorly in Q3, INT, fumble and punts and let them score a FG on us. 17-3. Fortunately, QB Vallery to SAiler score another TD for us : 24-3. And later again Valer to Niklos : 31-3. Cash connects on a late FG : 34-3. Game Summary Code:

Week 7Recruits We lose 6. Our Game : #21 Indiana (4-0) (-10) at Penn State (1-4) on TV5 We are starting getting used to TV coverage, and our boys seem to perform better under the spotlights ! We have some confidence on our game and it proves quite quickly when we build a nice long drive complete by a reverse run TD by WR Sailer : 7-0. At he end of Q1, they have 0 first down and 6 total yards. Just to begin Q2, I see an unfamiliar move from an Indiana QB has Vallery ran the option and pitched to RB Wittich for a TD : 14-0. Shortly after, QB vallery throws a TD pass to TE moved to FB DeLay : 21-0. And another Vallery pass to Sailer just before halftime : 28-0. I’ll quick sim the second half and interrupt if anything critical happens. End game : 49-10 ! Game Summary Code:

I've already played up to week 9, so I don't have stats from week 7, but our run defense is still top 5. Our defense is also only allowing the 5th fewest points in the nation. As I was saying at the beginning of the season, Vallery, Wittich and the WR corps are really impressive this year !!! I'm at work now, so I'll post more about the game tonight from home. The recruiting doesn't look good for now.

Week 8Recruits We lose 6. Our Game : #19 Indiana (5-0) (-20) vs Minnesota (1-4) Their 1-4 record does not reflect their real strength as they lost some close games. Caution mode is on ! They start with the ball, however they are intercepted by our LB Jeans and Wittich runs twice for 50 & 3 yards and a TD : 7-0. PK Cash then converts a FG and on the following kickoff, WR Hemmingway returns the kick 52 yards for another TD : 17-0. Both teams score a FG and halftime happens on a 20-3 score. RB Wittich is all over the field with already 150 rushing yards and he just added a receiving TD : 27-3. PK Cash is on a hot streak as he scores again : 30-3. And another one : 33-3. Games ends at 33-6 as our backups manage to stop their offense. Howard Cash, with his 4 FGs performance today just tied the school record for most FGs in a game ! Game Summary Code:

Week 9Time Management : 4 D-. 13 D… Bad news. 17 blocks left. Recruits We lose 5… Still no one signed. Our Game : #17 Indiana (6-0) (-22) vs Iowa (4-3) on TV4 They barely beat Illinois, a team that we crushed. Roll on baby ! They kick, we receive. We drive nicely as usual when Vallery throw a very long pass that is intercepted in Iowa endzone. Touchback… Fortunately, our defense is already active as we force a 3 and out. We also are forced to punt from Iowa 49 and special teamers are doing great too as they tackle the punt returner for a loss and a TD : 7-0 ! Tackler is RB Wittich !! Then they fail to convert a 4th down. We do the same thing… Once again they fail to convert a 4th down while they were within FG range… Strange thing. Well, we’ll think about that later and after two long Vallery passes, RB Niklos runs it in : 14-0. A little later, midway Q2, Wittich fumbles the ball away but they fail again on a 4th down attempt. Then once again on our punt, we recover the ball deep into their territory. RB Wittich scores : 21-0. Halftime. To begin Q3,FS Dorrough intercepts a long ball in our endzone for a touchback. A few plays later, QB Vallery hits WR Hemingway for another TD : 28-0. Quick sim mode on… Wittich is unable to run today. The field is soaked. Another Vallery to Hemingway long TD pass : 35-0. Q4 begins with backup players at QB and RB. It’s even our QB3 playing (and scoring). Our special teamers blocked a FG in Q4. Iowa is not shutout as they attempt and score a lame late FG : 42-3. Game Summary Code:

I did get my first recruit in week 8 last season (lucky I guess), but the second didn't committ until week 11... it's a lot harder if you shoot for the top recruits - everybody else seems to do the same!

Week 10Recruits 2 sign (at last) and we get 7 rejections (plus those who do not notify !)
- QB Marzullo is #199 overall and #25 QB. He is scouted as 95 by a VG QB scout. Average student however. 86/141 passes, 1412 yards, 12/2 TD/INT. He likes to run a lot : 48 attempts, 402 yards, 6 TDs. - DT Toombs is #209 overall and #12 DT. Scouted as 83+ by an excellent DL scout. Very good student with 84 tackles and 5 sacks. Already in : QB, DT Still needed : RB, FB, TE, WR, C, G, T, DE, ILB, OLB, CB, S, DE, +1 free Our Game : #17 Indiana (7-0) (-10) at Ohio State (3-4) on TV4 We are just 2 wins away from the playoffs and this one is on the must win list ! Wittich seems to have found a rythm today, but Vallery throws is usual early game interception. But we get the ball on downs and then Vallery sets the field on fire whil RB Niklos finishes the job : 7-0. Then on the following drive, we sack their QB, force a fumble and recover the ball. Vallery zips it to WR Hemingway : 14-0. Bad news for our special teams just after as Ohio State returns the kickoff 91 yards for a TD… : 14-7. our ground game is very effective today as RB Wittich scores his first TD : 21-7. End of Q1. To begin Q2, we build a nice drive that is concluded by a TD pass to TE playing at FB DeLay : 28-7. We kick, and they return the ball 84 yards again… However, backup S Brignac makes a big play and intercepts their QB in our endzone ! Halftime. Just a few comments : QB Vallery scores a long TD pass on a 4th down. He also is intercepted twice in Q3, but scores again later. We gives points late in the game in garbage time : 45-17.

Week 11Recruits We lose 3. Already in : QB, DT Still needed : RB, FB, TE, WR, C, G, T, DE, ILB, OLB, CB, S, DE, +1 free Our Game : #16 Indiana (8-0) (-6) at #20 Northwestern (5-3) on TV3 We are slotted as favourites, but that’s very suspect to me. Seing how easy our schedule is compared to Northwestern and our injuries at thin positions. Despite their running game, we’ll stick with the 3-4 defense. We kickoff, they start from their ten and are forced to punt (20 yards…) and we start within their 40. We then both punt for the whole 4th quarter and they score a FG at the end of Q1. We are unable to produce any offense and watch them score a TD : 0-10. Vallery is then intercepted and they convert into a TD : 0-17. Halftime… We start Q3 by being intercepted… Things start to get really ugly. No comments : 3-30. Stats to follow. Game Summary Code:

Northwestern is still a formidable opponent - we'll have our revenge on them in the playoffs!

Damn.. You kind of knew N'western wasn't going to lose 3 straight though. That program is at too high of a level for something like that to happen.. How did they lose to a horrible Michigan team?
Well on the positive side, it's only 1 loss. Two more W's and it's a return to Playoff Football for Indiana University. The scary thing is a 3 loss Northwestern team may end up finishing ahead of a 10-1 IU team in the Final Regular Season Poll. This could very well be a future 1st Round Tourney Matchup, as I've noticed, at least in my Dynasty, that they to match to up 2 at-large teams from the same Conference in Round 1. By the way... "B.J. Marzullo, a quarterback from Spruce Creek High School in Port Orange, Florida".. ..Port Orange?.. That's UCF Recruiting Territory. No wonder the Knights are stinkin' up the joint. They can't keep the High Schoolers at home.

Time Management :
6 D-. 13 Ds. Academics are not good either… I keep 4 blocks for week 17. Recruits We lose 4 again…. Already in : QB, DT Still needed : RB, FB, TE, WR, C, G, T, DE, ILB, OLB, CB, S, DE, +1 free Our Game : #21 Indiana (8-1) (-27) vs Purdue (3-7) Usual spread. Usual no TV game… Must win in order to ensure a playoff spot. We start well but lose the ball on a RB WIttich fumble. Both teams suck all Q1 long but we are still able to score a late FG by our PK Cash. Bad new ti start Q2 when our QB Vallery is intercepted and they return the ball for a TD : 3-7. We then drive all the field and finish thanks to RB Wittich : 10-7. We also manage to attempt a late FG just before halftime : 13-7. This game is really horrible and boring, fortunately, our defense is still better than theirs, so we are winning the position advantage. Finally an offensive play is positive when QB Vallery hits RB Niklos for a TD. RB Wittich converts for 2 points : 21-7. We intercept them shortly after and RB Wittich scores again : 28-7. our star duo QB Vallery-WR Sailer is back on track too : 35-7. Final Score. Game Summary Code:
