Signetti has built up this team on the interior and coach. He's done it quickly. In 2 straight years, he has elevated this team to back to back college football playoff appearances. We know he got the extension in the offseason, but he has done a fantastic job, not just cultivating and, and coaching up that talent, but getting in transfer quarterbacks such as Rourke and Fernando Mendoza this year. You know, I think what people don't realize, he has jumped onto the national scene so quickly. I don't think many football fans realize how much experience he has as a head football coach. Not only is he the, the son of a head football coach like I am, but he began coaching as a head coach at IUP, Indiana University of Pennsylvania, then at Elon, then at James Madison, and then on to Indiana. And when he got to Indiana, he was an experienced football coach in recruiting and in running a football program. It reminds me of when I got to Auburn, everybody thought I was a young 36-year-old coach with no experience, but I had been calling plays and running football programs for 10 years, and that's kind of how Kurt is. Uh, he went on, he's going on now to show people that he's probably the most veteran quarterback. When he played against. I mean, Ohio State, I felt like he was probably the more experienced coach in big games because I don't care if you're an Elon or James Madison or Indiana, or Ohio State. A championship game is a championship game, and you got to call the plays, you've got to run the show. So I think it's a huge factor. Kurt Cignetti is a huge factor in this equation. What he's done at Indiana, he's proven he could have done at other programs before. And, now, Indiana has a first-round by, by, they'll await the winner of the matchup between Alabama and Oklahoma. That's an 8-9 matchup. Alabama is a 1.5 point favorite in Norman, uh, on December 19th. Uh, we'll see how that game plays out. But coach, do you want to Get your thoughts. If they were to match up against either Alabama or Oklahoma, big picture, the way they have played this year, do you give Cignetti a shot? I know they're the #1 seed have dominated Big 10 opponents, but does their style match up with both of those SEC teams in the college football playoff? Well, I, I think they very well, they do. Of course, we know they beat Ohio State. Ohio State matched up pretty well against Texas early. I just think when you look at what you've got to do to be a championship team, it's not Indiana, but it's these other teams that show a weakness. They show a lack of, uh, to run the football at times, a lack of throwing the football at times, uh, quarterback that isn't quite at the very best in the league, uh, a defense that's, uh, that's better than the offense and not good on both sides. the ball. I think, I don't care whether you're talking about these other teams in the SEC or Big 12, Indiana is one of those teams that have shown they can win with a run game and their passing game, and their quarterback is a, is a veteran star. Many pick him to be the #1 quarterback that will be taken in the NFL draft, and they play great defense too. So he's put together in 2 years of recruiting, a team that is very, very talented from top to bottom.
