INDIANA will have a new QB under center in 2025 with Fernando Mendoza having a strong season at Cal., & INDIANA being well stocked at OL, WR & RB.
If Mendoza can perform as well as Kurtis Rourke (no easy task) then the Hoosiers' offense should be a juggernaut.
i don't think if Coach was the least bit concerned and Mendoza equalling Rourke performance of last year he would have recuited him at all.USA Toda Sorts, Dylan McNeil

BEAT PURDUE
I believe Mendoza has more raw talent than Rourke and should not be playing on a torn ACL. However, Rourke had chutzpah and the intangibles to be really successful.
With our coaches, Fernando will do just fine.
I believe it's a good bet that if Mendoza can make it through the season injury free and throw for between 30 and 35 TDs that the floor for this IU football team is 9 wins.

if he puts up those numbers, he’s off to the NFL and it’s Alberto’s turn.
Can Jameson graduate a year early? 
Consistent decision making is the key I'm looking for. Talent is different plus CR had a bad knee. If Mendoza/ others show Curtis style efficiency, we will win a lot. Go Hoosiers!

Mendoza having a monster season and becoming a first round NFL draft pick will do wonders for Indiana football recruiting!
I hope the new QB coach is good.
Fernando has said Chandler Whitmer is tops in his book. Coach Whitmer is very thorough in his approach on the smallest of details in quarterbacking.

Not arguing, but curious how you know this? Or was that what Mendoza said?
Just to be clear, I hope he makes us forget about losing Tino.
Our QB said Coach Whitmer is the best he's been around. Also Curt Cignetti has produced top ranked QBs for 4 straight years. He's very much involved with the QB coaches & players.
