Kurt Cignetti wants players to get closer to spring practice with ‘great feelings of urgency’
Indiana football coach Kurt Cignetti talks about how she defines progress for her status groups and players during spring practice:
- IU Football Coach Cignetti in 2025 season: ‘We have got the opportunity to be as good as we want and we have just got to continue the improvement’
- Scrimpus trusted the mid-year Enroll of the 14th New Year of the program, as Aiden Fisher and Eliza Sarat to avoid injuries as seated veterans
Bloomington – Indiana football Coach Kurt has traveled a long way in a short time under Signanti.
It was not long ago that Cignetti was working with a roster in the “crisis”. After taking the job, he joked that IU Athletic Director Scott Dolson forgot to tell him that almost the team’s entire rescue transfer was in the portal.
Those days are long gone.
While Cignetti prefers to say that he is never satisfied, he is notablely excited about the overall talent level of the team at his second spring camp in Bloomington. Hosiers wrapped the spring practice with a live scripture at the Memorial Stadium on Thursday night which was open to the public.
“What would I say about this team, we have a lot of pieces that we need,” Signetty said after the spring game.
Indiana’s crime defeated defense 31-23, in a brief exhibition, which lasted to two quarters. Hosiers used a modified scoring system with a point obtaining the point for stops and turnover.
The game featured a mixture of new faces (Quarterback in Quarterbacks Cal Transfer Fernando Mendoza and True Freshman Receiver Lebron Bond) and the old (back to Kelon Black and Linebacker Rollija Hardy).
Cignetti himself was not ready to offer any meaningful takeaWays from scramage – he prefers watching the film before assessing those types – but his first impression was a positive and he hopes that stable progress is in the decline camp.
“When we come back in the fall, it is on, it is real, and we need to play well to play our good players every single day, every representative, each drill,” Cignetti said. “The spring ball is over. Whatever we put, we get out. We have got the opportunity to be as good as we want, and we have just got to continue the improvement.”
Indiana rely on the underclassman in scramble, many of which had an external role in the 14 New Year Mid-Eyer Enrollis of many programs, as the coaching staff put back veterans such as Aden Fisher and comprehensive receiver Eliza Sarat to avoid injuries.
Even a few positions had some non-co-direction players in the mixture, but the cignetti is not exiting the spring camp, realizing that his roster had no clear weaknesses.
“Vasant sometimes you do not deal with this day till this day, and you are managing people, making sure the major people are not ding or injured in the spring ball, but in the fall you have loosened them,” Signanti said. “Some progress is probably where we may look a little strong right now, but I don’t think there is a special area that we are very few.”
