00:00Signetti is the first Division One coach to ever start 8-0 in consecutive seasons at different schools.

00:12Of course, was undefeated with James Madison last year, and now comes out and starts 8-0 with the Hoosiers.

00:18I love this guy. I think he's excellent. I think he's changed Indiana football already, and it's only been eight games.

00:25And I just hope and pray for you and the other Hoosier faithful that this is not just another stepping stone for this guy,

00:35who's obviously been going up the ladder. I hope he hunkers down here and he's going to be at Indiana for a long time

00:42and turns that program into being in always the upper middle of the Big Ten.

00:48They're never going to be Ohio State and Michigan. We know that. But just keep them always in that upper quadrant, Sky.

00:55That would be really big for them.

00:57That would be unbelievable, and you bring up a good point. Will he stay?

01:02Because he is now becoming one of the hottest commodities in coaching in football. That's just all there is to it.

01:10I mean, the guy, he even says it, I just win. That's what I do. I win.

01:15His offenses are exciting, and his approach to the game and his players and how they should play, it's exciting and refreshing.

01:26And what they're doing is insane, because they have always stunk. They have never mattered, ever.

01:31They didn't even matter in 67 when they went to the Rose Bowl. No one thought that that would happen to begin with.

01:38They won one bowl game, like when Corso was there, in 79, the Holiday Bowl.

01:44That's how embarrassing they've been, that they brag about winning the Holiday Bowl.

01:48You know, I brag more about going to San Diego than being in the Holiday Bowl, you know what I mean?

01:52So the fact that they're 8-0 is insanity. It's insanity. And now they've got Michigan.

01:57Now they're playing Michigan. I've got to tell you, I don't think Michigan's good at all.

02:01But they still are Michigan, and Indiana cannot F around with them or they'll lose.
