Interesting that Cignetti/Indiana retained the Offensive Line coach.

I don't know if that's interesting so much as an obvious move.  Their center, Pat Coogan, was named the Rose Bowl MVP.  How often do you see an OL player win an MVP award?  That OL coach is doing a lot of good things, and it's a shame we probably don't have the money to hire him (probably worth several professors' salaries).

Btw, did we all see that Cignetti has a market review contract clause that stipulates that his annual salary needs to be top three or else his buyout figure is zero?  Cignetti is currently at #4 with $11.6M, and Ryan Day is at #3 with $12.58M.  That is some serious wealth accumulation based on the performance of 20-yr old student-athletes.  This year, he's already earned $1.875M in incentives with another $1M on the table if IU makes it to the CFP final and $2M if IU wins the championship.
