It's truly amazing. Obviously, great coaching, but I wonder if this was a two-year lightning in a bottle or if Indiana's ability to attract higher-ranked players in the portal will make them even better going forward?

Informative article, particularly for those who consistently geek out on recruiting rankings. When I saws the title of this thread, I thought this was going to be an assessment of transfer additions who have proved most meaningful to the team ON THE FIELD during the Lanning era. My guess for number 1 (given my assumption) was incontestable I thought: Bo Nix followed perhaps by Tez Johnson. I don't mean to be difficult here, but in my world , rankings based on...others' rankings, are next to worthless. Let's evaluate the transfers based on actual contributions to the team made between the lines.

They were the exception not the rule. I surmise it will not be as smooth for them next season as their 5th and 6th year senior starters age out.

Zip, nada, nyet, nulla. Indiana is the 1st team in CFB to win a BCS or Playoff title without fielding a Blue Chip Roster. Just adds to the glory of a CFB fiction-like story.

I CAN HEAR THE DRUMS, FERNANDO! Hats off to the Hoosiers, Cig, Fernando, and whoever is writing CFB fiction in the home of the football gods. And Forum Friend, Doctor J, you almost nailed it. 3-peat - Stop treating the middle of the SEC like show dogs and the middle of the B1G like dog meat. OK, the final act in terrific OBD seasons was not Ducky, but OBD did lose to the College Football Champions, again. 🤬 Now, make sure that next season, The Trophy does not stay in Vegas, but heads to Eugene instead. From the losingest team in CFB to a title in two seasons! 16-0 - Move over, Yale.

Why don’t YOU look it up, and let us know?

Just curious how many five star players are on Indiana's national title team.

Jamari Sharpe, nephew of Miami Hurricane Glenn Sharpe, with the game-sealing interception.

Impressive and gutsy performance. Congratulations to the Hoosiers. This year they have literally created football history. Mendoza demonstrated why he deserved the Heisman.

Well, that was fun!

I really thought Miami would get blown out. Congratulations Indiana.

342 yds Miami vs 317 Indiana Indiana blocks a punt for a TD. At the end, wins by six.

The fighting Mario's found a way!

Haha. Live by the Beck, die by the Beck.

So glad Mario didn't win one in Miami! Can't stand the guy after he lied to the team!

Bring the pressure.

Delay on the first play I wish I hadn't seen that before.

I think Beck throws a pick here.

Mario getting a delay of game. Classic 😂

Time to D up remember holding Toney is way better than letting him run.

Indiana better not mess this up and lose by one

False start gives Mario a life line.

20-15 at Iowa - winning TD with 1:28 left 27-24 at Penn St - winning TD with 0:36 left 13-10 vs Ohio St Sometimes you just have to believe in destiny.

The difference is Beck has shown good poise.

The Indy D have forgotten that they’re the Indy D.
