Happy Friday, Hoosier fans! The dead period reached its end last week, and it’s been nothing but visits and minicamps for Tom Allen and company since. We gave a recruiting update this week, and these next couple weekends will be a huge as we are expecting several commitments. Don’t miss a beat— Follow us on Facebook, Twitter @HoosierHuddle and Instagram @Hoosier_Huddle.
Hoosier Huddle’s Official Countdown to 2021 IU Football Kickoff is in full swing. There exactly 85 days until the Hoosiers kick off the season at Iowa. Each day until then we will feature a player on this year’s roster, and also remember the glorious times of some IU football greats.
