The Hoosier Huddle Countdown is chugging along as we near the two month mark. Around this time last year, an IU football season was very uncertain, but we have no doubt since IU announced their plan to allow full capacity at Memorial Stadium. It’s been a long 173 days since we last watched IU football at the Outback Bowl, and 72 more days remain until kickoff at Iowa. Today we feature the veteran offensive lineman who will wear the No. 72 jersey in 2021— Dylan Powell.
