College Football Links (April 26, 2021)

Happy Monday, Hoosier fans! It was a huge weekend for the Hoosiers as they flipped commitment from top 50 athlete Dasan McCullough from Ohio State to IU and gained his brother Deland McCullough II from the transfer portal. They join their brother Daeh to complete the brother trio, alongside their father Deland, who coaches IU running backs in Bloomington. We had a live show to talk about IU’s newest commitment yesterday. If you missed it, watch here.

Spring football is over, and now we wait for the 2021 NFL Draft that begins this Thursday, April 29th. There are seven Hoosiers who hope to fulfill their dreams and get drafted this year, and last week we took a dive into each prospect and who might get drafted first. Listen to Hoosier Huddle’s Draft Preview Podcast here.

There are now 131 days remaining until the Hoosiers kick off the 2021 season at Iowa. Hoosier Huddle has new football content every day until then, so check back for the latest on the IU football squad. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter @HoosierHuddle and Instagram @Hoosier_Huddle
