Doyel: You have to see Center Grove defensive end Caden Curry to believe it
It's easy to see why football powers Alabama, Ohio State and Clemson want Center Grove star Caden Curry. It's just hard to believe what you're seeing.
Ohio State DL Caden Curry is making a mess of things out there for IU. Four years ago I went to one of his high school games. Same thing, only much worse.

Louisville jumps IU for 10-0 lead. Aggressive, oppressive man-to-man defense giving #iubb fits. Hoosiers have 4 TO's in 5 minutes, and are 0-for-5 from floor.

Doctors have looked for a link between calf strains and Achilles ruptures, which happened to Haliburton during the 2025 NBA Finals and to Kevin Durant in 2019, but studies are inconclusive.
The risk remains. The unknown is brutal.

On #GivingTuesday you could help Jeff George - yes, THAT Jeff George - provide a different kind of Christmas for underprivileged kids around Indiana.
Story is open.

Yup, officials screwed the Colts. Didn't help that Michael Badgley missed his third PAT in six games.
Afterward, Shane Steichen spoke ominously of Badgley's future.

🙈Houston misses PAT, officials don't see it

Doyel: Bucket game shows IU has more to prove, Purdue can't get much worse
The winter storm from the north wasn’t Purdue’s problem Friday night. Another storm hit first, this one from Bloomington – and it's called IU football
WEST LAFAYETTE — The storm coming from the north wasn’t a problem Friday night, but give it time. Our worst November weather in decades is on the way.
The storm from the south? It arrived at Ross-Ade Stadium at about 8 pm, and it was merciless...

Doyel: It's Raiders owner/Fox Sports analyst Tom Brady’s fairy tale. We're just living in it
Tom Brady's ethical issue as Raiders co-owner/Fox Sports NFL analyst happened because nobody tells Tom no. But like DeflateGate, he'll take it too far
Raiders fire OC Chip Kelly, and owner Tom Brady is in Detroit calling a Lions-Packers Thanksgiving game on Fox with two coaching staffs who would have candidates to replace Kelly.
As always, it’s Tom Brady’s fairytale. We’re just living in it.

Doyel: Stupid idea will help me have a happy Thanksgiving
End one day with a positive thought. Start the next one the same way.
From 2017, on the stupid idea from my therapist - "I didn't come here for THIS," I said as I walked out - that changed my life.
Hey, you. You're not alone. It's OK to not be OK.

Great reaction to the Jeff George story from folks who were with him at Warren Central and Purdue, but this line from a reader was my favorite quote:
“Jake Query should run for mayor of Indianapolis. He is as Indy as it gets.”
