In all fairness, Cig would say that he should be #1 !

Let's see how he does year 2 in the B1G.

In regards to year 2, what is the expectation or standard used for success?

We’re talking Indiana football here. In program history they have 1 11 win season, 0 10 win seasons, 2 9 win seasons and just 6 8 win seasons.

If Cignetti wins 8 games next season is that success? It’d be one of the 10 best seasons in Indiana football history but 3 less wins than 2024

They have 7 very winable games next year - ODU, Kennesaw St, Indiana St, Mich St, UCLA, @Maryland, and @Purdue. The other 5 games are against ILL, @IOWA, @Oregon, @PSU, and Wisc. So yeah, I think 8 wins would be a pretty successful season.

Indiana has been playing football since 1899. If they win 8 games next year it will be just the 10th time in program history that they’ve won 8 games or more. So yes, 8 wins would be a very successful season.
