Man, the past few days have been pure fireworks for Coach Curt Cignetti, Indianas gridiron wizard whos just etched his name in immortality.
Kicking off Saturday January 17, Cignetti hit national championship media day in Miami, firing up reporters with his no-nonsense vibe, according to Indiana University Athletics and The Daily Hoosier transcripts. He hyped the Hoosiers fan base, urging stragglers to grab a ride to Hard Rock Stadium, and dished on the grind ahead against Miami, calling it a big mountain to climb. Fans ate it up, with whispers of celebs like Mark Cuban vibing with the team.
Fast forward to Sunday the 18th, hes at a presser ahead of the big dance, per Associated Press photos, all business in his red zip-up, plotting that blueprint hes turned into gold at Elon and JMU.
Then boom, Monday night January 19 changes everything. In the College Football Playoff national title clash, Indiana shocks Miami 27-21 for their first championship and a perfect 16-0 season, as IDS News reports. Cignettis squad, led by bloodied Heisman QB Fernando Mendoza, grinds out the win with a clutch fourth-quarter touchdown. Postgame, Fox News caught him fuming at halftime to ESPNs Holly Rowe about missed personal fouls on Mendoza three black-and-white calls against the Hurricanes that left the star QB battered but unbroken. Indiana led 10-0 at the half thanks to a field goal and Riley Nowakowskis score. Cignetti barely smiled during the game, per ClickOrlando, true to form, but afterward he pointed skyward, honoring his late dad Frank Sr., his ultimate role model. IDS calls it one of college footballs greatest stories ever, with Cignetti the first coach to snag a title in his second season since Gene Chizik in 2010 a biographical bombshell that screams movie script.
No fresh social media buzz or business moves popping in the last 24 hours, but this title cements his legacy from Saban disciple to Hoosier hero. Whew, what a ride laugh if that aint the heartbeat of sports, I dont know what is.
