0:00
[SPEAKER_00]: you are listening to the IU report with Grant Shows and my Cutsle every Tuesday on the Central Indian Sports Report.
0:08
[SPEAKER_01]: Please join us on Thursday morning for our Peach Bowl preview.
0:23
[SPEAKER_02]: No, I'm drawing a blank here.
0:25
[SPEAKER_02]: I can't think of anything.
0:26
[SPEAKER_02]: There was that there was a game Thursday night, but I was last week.
0:30
[SPEAKER_02]: So we're not doing that.
0:32
[SPEAKER_01]: We're not dwelling on that.
0:33
[SPEAKER_01]: That wasn't really the weekend.
0:35
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, so.
0:39
[SPEAKER_01]: No, man.
0:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I can't think of anything.
0:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I have some transfers and some buzz about the peach ball a little bit.
0:49
[SPEAKER_01]: and i know we're gonna do a separate preview for the peach ball wednesday night and tonight is more focused on what indiana football did off the field this week adding gosh what eight or nine transfers out of the transfer portal for their in the twenty six roster
1:10
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, at 8.45 on Monday nights, so by the time we wrapped this up, they may have four or five more of the way yesterday was going if you hit anything similar.
1:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, it's like the flood gates opened all at once, and they all just started commit.
1:25
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, you texted me about the safety from Wisconsin.
1:29
[SPEAKER_02]: It was a brown 11 in the morning yesterday, and then at that point yesterday, I feel like we were just
1:40
[SPEAKER_02]: update after update.
1:41
[SPEAKER_02]: I one point I hit send and then there was another one to send 10 seconds after a before I even hit send I think.
1:50
[SPEAKER_02]: It's and it's the the portal landman.
1:55
[SPEAKER_02]: It's crazy.
1:56
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how coaches do it, especially coaches that are involved in the freaking boy off.
2:03
[SPEAKER_02]: I don't know how
2:08
[SPEAKER_02]: uh, there was a exchange yesterday or on the teleconference, but with him in day and landing the other day, we're sig mention having recruits on campus and landings like you take all your time in the world you need with them, you know, you do you do what you got to do, man.
2:24
[SPEAKER_01]: Just to run down, just to run down some of those transfers in case you're an Indiana fan and you're only source of information about IU is do the IU report and Josh you are.
2:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Thank you.
2:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, thank you.
2:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
2:40
[SPEAKER_01]: We very, very honored.
2:43
[SPEAKER_01]: Josh Hoover is, I guess, slated to probably be QB1 for Indiana next year.
2:49
[SPEAKER_01]: He comes over from TCU, completed about 66% of his passes, 3472 yards through the air this year, 29 touchdowns, 13 in our sections, he's the active FBS leader.
3:06
[SPEAKER_01]: and career passing yards, 9,600 and 29 passing yards and 71 career touchdown passes.
3:15
[SPEAKER_01]: He's got one more year of eligibility.
3:17
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is probably the biggest pickup they've gotten at least on paper just because of the position he plays.
3:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Of course, he's going to have to step into the shoes of
3:28
[SPEAKER_01]: a Heismatrophy winner from this year for next year.
3:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Mike, just quickly, I'm really interested on your thought on Josh Hoover.
3:39
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, it's a huge win, at least it seems that way to get him.
3:44
[SPEAKER_02]: Of course, we all, if you know, you follow this program, if you didn't follow it before the past two years, it's a name that should
3:52
[SPEAKER_02]: be a little bit familiar.
3:53
[SPEAKER_02]: He was originally committed to Indiana out of high school when Tom Allen was the coach and went out and left.
4:01
[SPEAKER_02]: He was released from his letter of intent decided to go down to TCU and has done really well down there.
4:09
[SPEAKER_02]: So good on him.
4:11
[SPEAKER_02]: For living up to some pretty.
4:14
[SPEAKER_02]: He had some hype coming in.
4:17
[SPEAKER_02]: He was considered a pretty big
4:21
[SPEAKER_02]: originally committed out of high school and he's lived up to it and and now he's coming coming in as if you could say one of the top three guys in the portal at the quarterback position.
4:35
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's it's a really exciting get for Indiana.
4:38
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the other guy to add probably their biggest offense of threat that they're going to be adding to next year's roster, Nick Marsh, the Michigan statewide receiver from last year.
4:49
[SPEAKER_01]: He was their top white receiver, ironically enough in the 2024 meeting with Indiana and Michigan State.
4:56
[SPEAKER_01]: If you remember Michigan State got a 10 to nothing on Indiana early in that game and he caught.
5:03
[SPEAKER_01]: an amazing touchdown pass keeping both feet in the ins and there to put them up to enough.
5:09
[SPEAKER_01]: And of course, Indiana went on and scored 47 on the answer after that.
5:13
[SPEAKER_01]: uh... he's six three two and three paths from Detroit uh... all big ten honorable mention and twenty five caught fifty nine passes six hundred sixty two yards and two ceases that Michigan state uh... six touchdowns this last year nine touchdowns over a career he's got two years of eligibility remaining in all of those and maybe those stats earners pretty is
5:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe you would think, but he's a guy that's super athletic and again, he was Michigan State's top receiver this year.
5:45
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's a huge pickup for Indiana there.
5:50
[SPEAKER_01]: And now you pair him with Josh Hoover and going to be exciting for next year on the offense.
5:57
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, and the big thing there is all the wind and all the tea leaves and
6:01
[SPEAKER_02]: All the experts had kind of written him off as an IU possibility.
6:05
[SPEAKER_02]: It seemed like a lot of people thought he was headed to South Bend.
6:10
[SPEAKER_02]: It was certainly looked like it was trending that way.
6:12
[SPEAKER_02]: And then kind of late in the day, Saturday, going into Sunday, his mom started involving herself saying, I don't know where the sin foes coming from.
6:22
[SPEAKER_02]: And not two hours, three hours later, you see.
6:27
[SPEAKER_02]: him pull the trigger for Indiana.
6:29
[SPEAKER_02]: And that was the one that really seemed like an open the floodgate.
6:31
[SPEAKER_02]: So there was a little bit of talk about Indiana was going to get three or four group commitments out of the portal on the first day.
6:38
[SPEAKER_02]: But when he announced, boy, just seemed like the door opened and we've seen guys just come barging through.
6:48
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the add more to that here, uh, just going to run these down quickly, uh, Toby Oston's song, uh, Oston's songy, uh, edged Russia from Kansas State comes in, uh, he actually missed most of the 20, 25 season due to an injury, but he did record 20 tackles, six tackles for loss and board sacks.
7:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Then you also add Joshua Burnham, who's also an edge russia from Motor Dane, the native of Traverse City, Michigan played in all 12 games for Notre Dame, made four starts, 16 tackles, six up and for loss, three sacks, actually I think had a scoop in score and in one game.
7:28
[SPEAKER_01]: So he's another big pick up that another ad russia, I do not want to butcher this name,
7:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, byzoor, I'm probably saying that wrong, that really matter, um, he comes over from Kansas State as well with Toby Osinsami, uh, so you pair them together.
7:51
[SPEAKER_01]: They've already played together, which will be nice, uh, Turbo Richard is another one, the running back from Boston College, little undersized this year, 145 carries for 749 yards, nine touchdowns on the year you can already hear the nicknames you're going to get
8:11
[SPEAKER_01]: and then you have jacquant sanks a safety coming in from Cincinnati played in all 12 games this year 50 tackles to for loss had a force fumble and then pressed in sackman another one as well as another safety coming over from west scots and 130 tackles over his career at Wisconsin he actually only played in three games in 20 25 he suffered a season ending injury so
8:40
[SPEAKER_01]: You are getting a lot of guys with experience and we've seen Kurt Signetti and his staff here this team this year.
8:46
[SPEAKER_01]: He mentioned all these and who's coming over and you kind of, you kind of loose track that they're still playing for a national championship.
8:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Like they're trying to win it all and you're already reconstructing your roster for next year because you got to do it again, hopefully no matter you know what you do in the peach bowl or if you get in the national championships.
9:07
[SPEAKER_01]: So this team right now is an older team and next year sounds like it's going to be some of the same things older guys on this team.
9:17
[SPEAKER_02]: You love to you left one off, right?
9:19
[SPEAKER_02]: You love to tie it in for Miami off.
9:22
[SPEAKER_01]: That's right.
9:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Brock shot.
9:23
[SPEAKER_01]: is another one.
9:24
[SPEAKER_01]: He's a guy that probably would go in, I remember when he played in high school from Leo ice school.
9:33
[SPEAKER_01]: I think he played a little bit of basketball too, which is how I knew him or new of him.
9:38
[SPEAKER_01]: He originally went to Miami, Miami, Florida, and now he's coming back to IU.
9:43
[SPEAKER_01]: So this is a guy that's from the Hoosier State and was originally recruited by Tom
9:50
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, out of high school.
9:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So to get him back, I would imagine he would be one that kind of be in like the Holden stays role.
9:59
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, once he comes in.
10:00
[SPEAKER_01]: So we'll be interested about that.
10:02
[SPEAKER_02]: That actually just came out about what an hour ago for restart recording is so hour to take up the one really interesting thing to me about all this is for the first two years that sig was here.
10:15
[SPEAKER_02]: Obviously his first year he brought
10:17
[SPEAKER_02]: JMU within effectively, but then the last year you saw him go to the portal and he went hard again over guys from non-P4.
10:30
[SPEAKER_02]: You didn't see him get a lot of guys.
10:33
[SPEAKER_02]: He got some Helen White obviously came from Maryland.
10:35
[SPEAKER_02]: That was a big pick-up.
10:37
[SPEAKER_02]: Riley with Noah Kowsky came from Wisconsin.
10:40
[SPEAKER_02]: A nice pick-up there, but he's in the historically since he's been here, which is
10:48
[SPEAKER_02]: He's gone after lower level guys who were upper classmen who had produced at a pretty high level.
10:54
[SPEAKER_02]: and brought them up and they all proved themselves whether or not they could play at this level.
10:59
[SPEAKER_02]: All the JMU guys, then Stephen Daley from Kent State or Jose Wheeler from Western Kentucky, those type of players, he's really hidden power for guys.
11:10
[SPEAKER_02]: And some of them have not produced at high levels.
11:14
[SPEAKER_02]: You know, shot is a younger guy who didn't play a lot for Miami, he'll have four years of eligibility because I don't think that he,
11:22
[SPEAKER_02]: played in enough games for Miami.
11:26
[SPEAKER_02]: The, you know, he's bringing a kid in from Cincinnati at the DB.
11:30
[SPEAKER_02]: He's bringing the guys from Kansas State and one of which would been injured last year.
11:36
[SPEAKER_02]: He got the guy from Wisconsin who's going to be in a seventh year of college next year, but he missed a lot of time last year.
11:43
[SPEAKER_02]: So it's a little bit of a different type of recruiting strategy that we've seen from him in the past.
11:52
[SPEAKER_02]: probably, you know, pull some of these guys from lower levels up, because I think that's just part of his DNA and guys that he likes to recruit.
12:01
[SPEAKER_02]: He likes to recruit for culture.
12:02
[SPEAKER_02]: He likes production over, you know, possibility.
12:07
[SPEAKER_02]: So I think there's still some of that to come, but I am interested in seeing how this plays out because it's a slightly different type of
12:20
[SPEAKER_02]: portal class and we've seen from him in the past two off seasons.
12:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and and it's not over yet like I wouldn't be shocked if after the peach bowl if they win, you're going to see more or it's unfortunately the season comes to an end and I know we'll talk more about that later this week in the peach bowl preview.
12:43
[SPEAKER_01]: If the season would end Friday, which I don't think it will.
12:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, you're going to see more guys start to commit and then what's going to be key is the retention, you know, keeping guys around younger guys that have a lot of upside around here for next year's team, I got Charlie Becker and Isaiah Jones, you expect those guys to probably stick around.
13:10
[SPEAKER_01]: Kobe Martin.
13:12
[SPEAKER_01]: Maybe Alberto.
13:13
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know what the deal is there now that they've brought in a guy that probably could be there.
13:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Probably is going to be their starting quarterback next year.
13:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, and I know we'll talk about that a lot in the off season.
13:26
[SPEAKER_01]: This isn't over yet.
13:27
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a lot of guys that are still going to come in and and still going to play a lot of minutes or.
13:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, I guess a lot of minutes next year that aren't on this roster quite yet.
13:37
[SPEAKER_01]: Actually, one of the funnier tweets I read yesterday was somebody put on Twitter and said, I don't know about this signetty guy, man.
13:45
[SPEAKER_01]: He hasn't had a new recruit in like 30 minutes now.
13:49
[SPEAKER_01]: So I don't know if he's the guy.
13:51
[SPEAKER_01]: I thought that was pretty funny, but.
13:54
[SPEAKER_02]: And then he then turbo Richard probably popped a little bit after after that.
13:59
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, no pun intended by saying turbo Richard popped there kind of mistakenly some in you window could have been construed on that interesting sub plot.
14:12
[SPEAKER_02]: Michigan State Boston College met and earlier this season, both Marsh and Richard scored in that game.
14:24
[SPEAKER_02]: Both of them had really big nights in that contest.
14:28
[SPEAKER_02]: So if you really want to get bored and while you're waiting for the Peach Bowl on Thursday, if you want to pull up YouTube and find Michigan State Boston College,
14:39
[SPEAKER_02]: which sounds like something grand will probably do five seconds after we turn on a hook the phones on this podcast.
14:48
[SPEAKER_02]: There's your entertainment before Thursday night.
14:51
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't get me any ideas, man.
14:54
[SPEAKER_01]: The poor girl for that.
14:56
[SPEAKER_01]: The thing is is that that that Michigan State boss in college, get my remember watching it earlier.
15:01
[SPEAKER_01]: This year's a great game and so to get to the top guys that
15:05
[SPEAKER_01]: And like both this team sucked like those were two bad teams, but at the at the time there they were it was like the second week of the year.
15:12
[SPEAKER_01]: So it was really a game.
15:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, again, I'm really happy with this four o'clock.
15:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, you're going to see a lot more guys start committing.
15:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It's actually funny to like see other programs react to this and they're like, oh my god, like like, signetti is like building a bigger monster than what he already has this year.
15:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I wouldn't be, we've known now that this is here to stay hopefully.
15:40
[SPEAKER_01]: And, and this is just a piece to that puzzle right now is getting these guys to come in and play for you next season.
15:49
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, don't you know the new company line, the college football, because you have to discredit Indian in some way, shape or form, since they're.
15:57
[SPEAKER_02]: It's actually, they're proving everyone wrong.
16:01
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, and, and that's the thing is like,
16:04
[SPEAKER_01]: Everybody's saying it so it so now you kind of become attached to that like no matter what you do you you are still going to get shit on every time because of.
16:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Because that's just what everybody said about you kind of carry that with you, unfortunately.
16:23
[SPEAKER_02]: Well, Sid can't recruit now.
16:24
[SPEAKER_02]: He's got to do a program of mercenaries.
16:27
[SPEAKER_02]: He's got to go to the portal.
16:29
[SPEAKER_02]: He can't recruit his own team.
16:31
[SPEAKER_02]: That's the new thing now.
16:32
[SPEAKER_02]: That's everybody's go to this week to discredit.
16:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I think at the end of the season, you could go in and look back at every week and it's almost like every week.
16:55
[SPEAKER_01]: There's a new thing to discredit Indiana every week, every week of the season and you could go back and almost like Calment.
17:07
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like, oh, this week it was this.
17:08
[SPEAKER_01]: This week it was that.
17:09
[SPEAKER_01]: This week it was, oh, Indiana struggle with old dominion.
17:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah.
17:13
[SPEAKER_01]: They don't play anybody.
17:14
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, this week Indiana beat Kenna saw state 56 to nine.
17:18
[SPEAKER_01]: We can't saw states, though.
17:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Good.
17:19
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, this week they'd be Indiana state.
17:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, this week they're playing Illinois, but, but Illinois is, you know, number nine in the country.
17:28
[SPEAKER_01]: They're this year's Indiana.
17:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And then the week after that, it was well, Illinois wasn't really that good to begin with.
17:34
[SPEAKER_01]: It's, it's, you can find all those every week and see where they've got and proved and wrong.
17:41
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm actually going to do that once the season's over.
17:45
[SPEAKER_01]: So that's one thing to think about if you're an Indiana fan.
17:49
[SPEAKER_01]: It's unfortunate.
17:54
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, do you want to now we can transition because we will preview the teach bowl and much more in depth and then we have some of this with more so about the transfer portal.
18:10
[SPEAKER_02]: All right, we're going to hit you a little bit on Sunday night Grant.
18:15
[SPEAKER_02]: You were there.
18:15
[SPEAKER_02]: The Hoosers pick up the win on the hardwood first game in about three and a half weeks.
18:23
[SPEAKER_02]: get a big 10 home win against with Washington 80 to 90 to 80 at assembly hall big night for a couple guys that you don't necessarily always see Tate and Conway a huge first half and kind of disappeared in the second half because he just didn't play.
18:43
[SPEAKER_02]: Trent Sisley with a big second half in that one.
18:48
[SPEAKER_02]: Grant, you were there, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
18:51
[SPEAKER_02]: What was the mood?
18:51
[SPEAKER_02]: What was the temperature?
18:52
[SPEAKER_02]: And you said you got a great story to share.
18:56
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, we'll talk about the game first before I say about the story I have.
19:02
[SPEAKER_01]: The story is actually probably a little anti-climactic.
19:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Great win, first of all, really great win to win a conference game at home.
19:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Again, kind of a weird Sunday night game kind of went in there.
19:17
[SPEAKER_01]: Not really knowing what the mood would be, how the energy would be in there.
19:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Surprisingly, the energy was really good as a solid atmosphere.
19:27
[SPEAKER_01]: There weren't as many people as you would probably like to see the eight o'clock.
19:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Yeah, the time of it, you know, the tip time probably was an ideal for a lot of people who were, you know, probably going back to work for the first time and you know, in a couple weeks.
19:48
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, you know, going back to school the next day.
19:50
[SPEAKER_01]: So that wasn't necessarily ideal.
19:53
[SPEAKER_01]: But both teams.
19:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you watched the game.
19:56
[SPEAKER_01]: They came out hot.
19:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Like it was tied or it was like 1715 or 1515 at the under 16 time out.
20:05
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, to start the game.
20:07
[SPEAKER_01]: That was really exciting.
20:10
[SPEAKER_01]: and it was a nice win like you mentioned Trent Sicily scored 10 points off the bench yet that nice run there I think he scored seven or eight straight on his own and that really ignited that crowd is it really solid atmosphere for it being a Sunday night game like that.
20:28
[SPEAKER_02]: Yeah, amazing thing to me was they got so hot and we're having a track meet there in the first half and it wasn't coming from Wilkerson or DeVries.
20:36
[SPEAKER_02]: It was coming from the other guys which is a huge
20:40
[SPEAKER_02]: a huge thing a nigg dorn had another nice game off the bench had some shots he's shooting like 70% from three over the last month or so so it's good to see some really promising yeah uh and then we don't even have to talk about re-baley today so that's always also a positive yeah um he sucks just to be honest
21:11
[SPEAKER_01]: So I, uh, I go to the game last night and it was kind of the last minute deal.
21:18
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I kind of thought in the end of my mind, I was like, okay, that's a game I can make.
21:22
[SPEAKER_01]: Sunday night.
21:23
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a little convenient for me.
21:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Um, I knew if I went, I was probably going to be going by myself.
21:30
[SPEAKER_01]: Uh, girlfriend had the work the next day with the late to just knew we were going to be getting back late.
21:37
[SPEAKER_01]: So I kind of pondered on Sunday morning early Sunday afternoon if I want to buy a cheap ticket and go down and kind of set up high and the sky I know that actually tailgate to this football games has season tickets and I see my message goes like, hey, are you going to the game that he goes, no, you want my tickets?
21:54
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, yeah, sure.
21:55
[SPEAKER_01]: And I was like, how much is he goes free?
21:58
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I'm not going to pass up a free ticket to an IU game.
22:01
[SPEAKER_01]: And just with my schedule, it's probably the last at the back and forth with my girlfriend a little bit.
22:07
[SPEAKER_01]: And we agreed I would go on myself.
22:09
[SPEAKER_01]: And she's like, I just have a bad feeling about you going.
22:13
[SPEAKER_01]: And when people say that to you, then like, okay, what?
22:17
[SPEAKER_01]: So I drive down there, my park,
22:20
[SPEAKER_01]: Walk over to assembly hall, go into the game.
22:23
[SPEAKER_01]: Don't really think anything of it.
22:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Go up.
22:25
[SPEAKER_01]: Sit my seat.
22:26
[SPEAKER_01]: Watch the game.
22:27
[SPEAKER_01]: It's a nice game.
22:29
[SPEAKER_01]: Really got into it.
22:31
[SPEAKER_01]: Good crowd.
22:32
[SPEAKER_01]: Good energy.
22:33
[SPEAKER_01]: At least my opinion.
22:36
[SPEAKER_01]: And it kind of got to point in the game.
22:38
[SPEAKER_01]: We're also okay.
22:39
[SPEAKER_01]: It's like 930 right now.
22:41
[SPEAKER_01]: It's almost 10 o'clock.
22:42
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm like, I'm gonna leave it like the eight minute time out in the second half.
22:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm gonna beat the traffic, get on the road.
22:49
[SPEAKER_01]: You know, everybody's gonna be leaving and heading north in 69 just gets flooded after games with that traffic.
22:55
[SPEAKER_01]: Like, I'm, I'm gonna leave early.
22:58
[SPEAKER_01]: So I walk back to the car and I noticed that, oh, good, the head football coach is still here.
23:05
[SPEAKER_01]: He's still here.
23:07
[SPEAKER_01]: He's still working.
23:08
[SPEAKER_01]: That's good.
23:09
[SPEAKER_01]: He's grinding his ass off right now.
23:11
[SPEAKER_01]: And like this is coming after like Nick bars just committed and and you have all these other guys coming in and you're getting ready for the peach bowl and so like good that's my that's I was like that's my Balkan right there guy is still in here in the office working I get to the car and I take my keys and I hit the unlock button on my car.
23:35
[SPEAKER_01]: Nothing.
23:36
[SPEAKER_01]: I hit it again.
23:36
[SPEAKER_01]: Nothing.
23:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Keep hitting it.
23:38
[SPEAKER_01]: Nothing.
23:39
[SPEAKER_01]: Car will not unlock.
23:41
[SPEAKER_01]: Need I mention that it's January, and it's like 30 degrees outside.
23:47
[SPEAKER_01]: I'm two hours away from home, and I can't get in the car.
23:52
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm freaking out.
23:54
[SPEAKER_01]: I don't want to be trapped in Bloomington.
23:57
[SPEAKER_01]: Here, two hours away from home.
24:00
[SPEAKER_01]: immediately, my mind reverts back to what my girl said about me going.
24:05
[SPEAKER_01]: It sounds like a bad idea.
24:06
[SPEAKER_01]: Oh, it's just doesn't sound like a great idea.
24:08
[SPEAKER_01]: And so I'm freaking out.
24:12
[SPEAKER_01]: I call my dad.
24:13
[SPEAKER_00]: I mean, she's right at this point.
24:15
[SPEAKER_01]: Yes, that's what's making me more mad is I know now I'm going to have to call her and explain what's really going on here.
24:23
[SPEAKER_01]: So I call my dad and keep on, I'm 21 years old.
24:30
[SPEAKER_01]: And it's not that big of a deal now and retrospect, but he's like, okay, call campus police.
24:39
[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, hey, is there a way like you guys could come out here and unlock my car or like he's like, oh, no, and where we haven't done that in like 10 or 15 years, and I'm like, okay, and he goes, if I
24:57
[SPEAKER_01]: guys keep in mind.
25:00
[SPEAKER_01]: I've never dealt with anything like this.
25:02
[SPEAKER_01]: He said call a record.
25:04
[SPEAKER_01]: I didn't even know what that was.
25:06
[SPEAKER_01]: I've never heard of that.
25:08
[SPEAKER_01]: You're calling Luke record at that point.
25:13
[SPEAKER_01]: Well, I didn't know how I didn't know how I didn't know how to spell record.
25:21
[SPEAKER_01]: So I finally, you know, making out to, to what he's saying.
25:25
[SPEAKER_01]: I explained the situation and the guys like, okay, I can have someone out there to you in 30 minutes.
25:32
[SPEAKER_01]: And I'm like, okay, that's fine.
25:32
[SPEAKER_01]: I was like, how much is it gonna cost?
25:34
[SPEAKER_01]: He's like 85, like, whatever.
25:37
[SPEAKER_01]: I just want to get home and see by this point, the game is like ending.
25:41
[SPEAKER_01]: People are like walking out to the car and everything.
25:44
[SPEAKER_01]: So I'm like, okay, whatever.
25:46
[SPEAKER_01]: And so the guy is sending me text and goes,
25:52
[SPEAKER_01]: and I'm talking to my dad and I go, okay, the guy said he's gonna be here five minutes.
25:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I hit the unlock button and it unlocks.
26:00
[SPEAKER_01]: After 20, 25 minutes of me standing out here, calling a record to come open this, it finally unlocks.
26:09
[SPEAKER_01]: Little anti-climactic and here's where I'll tie it back in.
26:14
[SPEAKER_01]: I noticed that the ball coach here is still grinding.
26:22
[SPEAKER_01]: It's cars still out the parking lot, trying to get it's ready for the peach bull.
26:27
[SPEAKER_01]: And every time in clutch situations, Indiana football this year has found a way.
26:34
[SPEAKER_01]: They found ways to win.
26:37
[SPEAKER_01]: They found a way to win at Iowa.
26:39
[SPEAKER_01]: They found a way to win at Oregon.
26:41
[SPEAKER_01]: They found a way to win at Penn State in the Big Dead Championship.
26:44
[SPEAKER_01]: They just found ways every time.
26:48
[SPEAKER_01]: and crunch time where I'm about to lose out on $85, somehow that key fob.
26:56
[SPEAKER_01]: I hit it and an unlocked.
26:58
[SPEAKER_01]: I truly think that Kurt Signetti, at that point, was maybe leaving to go get into the car.
27:06
[SPEAKER_01]: My car, since the dude's unlimited aura, and was like, I gotta unlock, I can't believe this, that the guy's aura unlocked the car.
27:17
[SPEAKER_02]: so that that's my that's my that's my crazy story so I've never had that happened before when you said all-time regret I thought you were going to say Fernando Mendoza rolled up and was like hey you need a ride and Fernando Mendoza took you home or something that's where I thought you were headed with it man or or she came out was like you did a jump
27:40
[SPEAKER_00]: Well, sick did jump at the car with his aura.
27:43
[SPEAKER_00]: He did.
27:44
[SPEAKER_00]: He did.
27:45
[SPEAKER_02]: And I thought sick was going to give you a ride to the Walmart and Bloomington.
27:51
[SPEAKER_02]: Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah,
