Scott & Galen break down Indiana's 27–14 Week 1 win over Old Dominion. We dig into why the run game (309 yards on 57 carries) set the tone, what the 41:28 time of possession says about control, and where red-zone execution must sharpen. We also hit the two explosive QB keepers that produced ODU's scores, Mendoza's timing with receivers, WR/TE usage, and defensive standouts.HighlightsRun-game dominance (57 for 309, 5.4 ypc)Defense: two big breakdowns, otherwise solidRed-zone & play-design tweaks to unlock more pointsPass game: near-miss explosives and what's fixableGameday vibes: Hoosier the Bison, towels, the new chant, intro videoNext up: Kennesaw State (noon, Saturday).Presented by Homefield Apparel — use code HOME23 for 15% off your first order.If you enjoy CrimsonCast, follow and rate the show on Spotify.

Indiana basketball fans get a chance to reflect on the Hoosiers' successful three-game sweep in Puerto Rico while also building excitement for what promises to be a historic football season.This edition of Assembly Call Radio brings together Coach Tonsoni, Ryan Phillips, Andy Bottoms, and Jerod Morris to discuss the early signs from the DeVries era and the anticipation building around both basketball and football.Segment 1: Headlines and Community Connection [00:00:00 - 00:20:00]The banner moment focuses on Coach DeVries' community engagement during move-in week - helping students move into dorms, appearing at the freshman rally, and visiting Homefield Apparel's new Kirkwood store. The hosts emphasize how refreshing it is to see a coach embracing all aspects of the job after years of perceived resistance to community involvement.Discussion includes the release of the Big Ten's top 40 player rankings with Lamar Wilkerson checking in at 29th and expectations for Tucker DeVries to land in the top 15. The conversation touches on Indiana's current "first four out" status in ESPN's early bracketology and upcoming exhibitions against Marian and Baylor.A significant portion focuses on football expectations, with both hosts projecting 8-9 wins and discussing the challenge of managing fan expectations in what could be another special season under Kurt Cignetti.Segment 2: Puerto Rico Trip Analysis [00:21:00 - 00:45:00]Special guest Galen Clavio joins to discuss the three-game Puerto Rico sweep. The hosts emphasize looking at trends rather than results given the competition level, but note encouraging signs about pace, ball movement, and the team's ability to come back from double-digit deficits in the final two games.Key observations include the emphasis on three-point volume, improved spacing and movement compared to recent years, and the development of team chemistry among players who had never played together before. The conversation highlights how this represents a complete philosophical shift toward modern basketball.Galen also promotes the Back Home Network's expansion with new shows including Football Weather, The Big Red Carpet, and the upcoming Crimson Cast Live event at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater.Segment 3: Individual Standouts and Random Tangents [00:45:00 - 01:31:00]The final segment dives deeper into individual performances, particularly praising Taton Conway's ball pressure defense and improved offensive showing, plus Reed Bailey's versatility as a passing big man who can handle the ball. The hosts discuss how this team's depth could be a major asset with multiple players capable of contributing.The conversation takes several entertaining detours including Cowboys documentary discussions, predictions about future sports documentaries, and speculation about who would play Curt Cignetti in a hypothetical Indiana football movie. Throughout, there's underlying optimism about both programs heading into their respective seasons.Plus, as always, analysis of a trip none of them actually watched, excitement about finally seeing modern basketball concepts at Indiana, and the challenge of tempering expectations while embracing the obvious improvements in program culture and direction. That's all in this edition of The Assembly Call.On the mics: Coach Brian Tonsoni, Ryan Phillips, Andy Bottoms, and Jerod Morris (with special guest Galen Clavio)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this episode of Mind Yo' Life, we welcome Steve Versaw—musician, songwriter, venue manager, and the current Executive Director of Bloomington's iconic Buskirk-Chumley Theater. Before taking the reins at BCT, Steve was keeping time and writing tunes with the beloved indie-rock band The M's. Known for their warm, gritty sound and infectious energy, The M's became a staple of the Chicago music scene in the early 2000s. Steve co-wrote and performed on fan favorites like “Plan of the Man” and “Shawnee Dupree,” tracks that still hold up as alt-rock gems. Raised in Kalamazoo, Michigan, and a proud Western Michigan University alum, Steve's journey has taken him through the creative pockets of Portland, the hustle of Chicago, and now to the cultural heartbeat of Bloomington. Along the way, he's built a life steeped in rhythm, collaboration, and community impact. In this episode, we talk about music, management, and Midwest roots. Steve reflects on his touring days, his shift into arts leadership, and how he's helping shape the next chapter for one of Indiana's most historic theaters. And just to keep him honest—we put him through the Steve Versaw Quiz to find out if he really knows the man behind the mic. Spoiler alert: it gets fun. Grab your coffee and join us for a relaxed, insightful conversation that spans stages, cities, and songs—all with that signature Mind Yo' Life vibe. https://buskirkchumley.org/ Podcast Studio Sponsor Podcast Sponsor Podcast Sponsor JF WALKER INVESTMENTS 812-327-0889

What do Deb and Kris Kristofferson have in common? Both have performed on stage at the Buskirk-Chumley Theater. She with the Dancing with the Celebrities fundraiser, while under the influence of a fair amount of tequila, and well, Kris Kristofferson probably doesn't need as much explanation or liquor to perform.
