Thank you for reading Hoosier Huddle
The blind side is a great one. Also, I guess Rudy is too old for many of these guys

Ha, I love that none of them said Rudy. While it’s probably too old for them, it’s also a crap movie.
Fun fact, my high school football coach played for Notre Dame and was on the team with Rudy. In fact, his name appears in the movie. When Rudy in his senior year walks up to view the players list for the Air Force game, you can see my coaches name on the list. When the movie came out the local news asked him about it, he really took a neutral stance on talking about Rudy and the movie but those of us who knew him well basically thought, he didn't think much of it.

Another fun fact…A close friend to my family and a big IU fan/donor grew up in SB and was Ara Parseghians next door neighbor. He also dated Aras daughter for a while. He always tells the story that he was Aras assistant coach when they played backyard football with the neighborhood kids.
Some other good football movies in no particular order; The Express, We are Marshall, Friday Night Lights, Brian’s Song (I’ve never watched this movie personally, but I know people who talk about how great it is.).
Shoutout to Aiden Fisher with "My All American." Underrated movie. Watched it on Netflix, not sure if it's still streaming there.
Disturbing lack of mentions of "The Program."
