As a Badger alumni, I always admired Coach Hep as someone who never gave up in football and in life. Despite he is gone, we never forget him, Make 13 count.
Thank you so much for your kind comment. We are honored to be playing an excellent program like Oklahoma State in the Insight Bowl. Best of luck to you, as well. Thanks again.
That was great. I'm on the field with the team and interview them every Saturday for a TV station so I am pretty use to talking to them about Hep and Jane but I have to say this might be the first time I've teared up from it. Nice work. Thanks for posting it.
I'm a student at U of M and I drove down to Bloomington for his Memorial at Assembly Hall. Here in Ann Arbor we understand what it's like to lose a coach (Bo). Hep was a great coach and a great man and I am rooting for you guys to play 13!
Thank you for your incredibly kind comment. Bo was a great coach, and Lloyd Carr also did a good job. As an IU alumnus, I have always respected Michigan's football program. You have not only won games, but you have won them in the right way--with class and with quality student athletes. Here at IU, we still miss Hep very much. I am hopeful that we can fully realize his vision for the program. Thanks again.
Lloyd Carr definitely did a lot for the credibility of the team as well as the talent :). I was going to reply earlier but I wanted to wait until the bowls were announced so I could congratulate you and IU on going to Tempe. I cannot think of a more deserving team!
Thank you for your very nice comments. Like my comments about Michigan, the same is true for Ohio State. Jim Tressell is great coach and operates the program with class. Your fellow Big 10 brothers and sisters at IU will be pulling for you in the Rose Bowl!

If only Purdue were, but alas, Buckeye Nation is equally as nice.

Even though you guys are about a 3-2 favorite, I think we'll give you a fight tonight.

Well, so far, you guys are crushing us. I guess I may as well say congrats to Oklahoma State.

Thank you, FWBigRed for posting this one. Jane is one fantastic woman. I hope she is important part of IU for the rest of her life.

Your Big 10 brothers in Columbus share in your pain. Hep was a great coach, and Indiana is a great school. Good luck with #13 this year guys.
