    If he stays healthy, I think he’ll be the best QB in school history.

    I was also incredibly impressed with Stevie Scott. He, much like this team, has gotten better every week.
    Penix, as you said, has a chance to be something very special.

    Now Scott, on the other hand, gets overlooked. He did rush for over 1100 yards last year. And is well on pace to surpass that this year. FYI Stevie is now 15th on IU's all-time rushing list and 9th in TD's. Still has 4 games to play this year and he will be a Jr. next year.

    Penix out for the season, we just can’t have anything nice.
    When I see the 2016 Reds, I see a 100 loss team and no direction.

    Don’t think there was any controversy, Penix is the superior player.

    Oh yeah there was once Penix became "Glass Joe."

    Simply put, this sucks.

    While the offense can still be pretty potent with Ramsey, it could've been -- and still could be moving forward -- flat-out dynamic with Penix. And if the program has designs on higher aspirations than simply landing a Bowl bid, a QB the caliber of Penix is a must.
    Whatever you do, do your best to not allow the struggles of life to interfere with the pleasures of living.

    Ramsey is fine but I agree with you on Penix, he has a chance to be the best QB in school history. Move over Harry Gonso, Babe, Antwaan, Trent and Steve Bradley....

    I imagine that none of us posting here ever witnessed Harry Gonso's playing days, so it's difficult to factor him in.

    In any case -- excluding current QBs -- it's Antwaan, who assuredly would have been a QB in the NFL in today's NFL landscape, by a landslide. And I'll humbly suggest that the late Dave Schnell > than at least two members of that list, though Bradley arguably had the worst supporting casts around him.

    Know nothing about Gonso but the rest yes.

    I would surmise that Schnell is the only one that has a career winning % over .500 as a starter.

    I forgot about Schnell honestly. Gonso lead IU to the rose bowl and is still in the top 10 in many categories and played during an era of run first football so he’s gotta be in the conversation. There are a lot of people on this board who never saw Bench but they know he’s the greatest catcher ever.

    Schnell was from my neck of the woods. Gonso aside, ARE is the greatest QB IU ever had...but Dave was something else. He was the best player in the land according to some sources coming out of Elkhart Central. He chose IU.

    Congratulations, IU Hoosiers. They crack the AP Top 25 for the first time since 1994 That was the longest drought among Power Five schools. That dubious honor now goes to in-state rival Purdue, unranked since 2007.

    And now the team with the longest drought from being ranked... The Purdue Boilermakers who haven't been ranked in the top 25 since 2007.

    You hate to see it.
