IU Photos

Quite the experience as a journalist to be at the White House, but sadly much of what the visiting IU football team did was out of sight of the press corp, and it didn’t bother them the way it did me. It turned into a glorious day and the remarks were fairly on track with the event. A section recognizing the Indiana delegation. A section recounting the highlights of the amazing season. Some talk about Fernando not being there but he was ok with that. Coach Cignetti spoke a bit. Then Charley Becker, and Jamari Sharpe. And then they went off to do more things out of sight of journalists.

Here are a couple of quick photos

Sounds like an impressive entourage from IU at the White House. Three motor coaches arrived a few minutes ago.

Spectacular weather for undergraduate commencement at IU Bloomington tonight. I hoped to find some IU athletes in the crowd but it proved more challenging than I hoped.

Investigating using kickstarter to launch Leap of Faith, the book I’ve created of images from the last season of IU football. Would love your feedback.

One premium would be a custom printed hard cover with jacket version of the book as it is now. 182 pages. 315+ images. From 6 games (PSU, MD, Big Ten v OSU and all three CFP games.) One essay by me and detailed captions of the action photos. These are expensive to print but can be ready quickly. This would also include the expanded book, in development, which would be conventionally printed and with more essays by a variety of IU alums on various topics about the season. Around $400
This level can be fulfilled even if the bigger goal is not achieved.

Adding an 11x17” print of the cover photo, or the image of your choice, would add $100 (Subject to licensing approval)

The conventionally printed book would be bigger than the custom version to include a variety of essays in development, possibly a listing of all the top level supporters, and possibly content from the Daily Hoosier on all the games from the season. Would be ready in the fall. Pricing TBD but in the $50-100 range depending on printing costs. Would need to hit the minimum press run to move forward on this project.

I will share a video of the book in the comments when the first copies arrive next week. The video in my feed is an in progress version of the book

Comment with the level you would be interested in.

My quick edit of the Miami game found this gem and more on their web site.

"The Dive" will be remembered forever in IU lore. Incredible shot by Garrett Ewald for TDH.

I was apparently as surprised as lots of other fans about black uniforms.

The Mayor of Miami bet one of these with the Mayor of Bloomington over Monday’s football game. Intense flavor. Had to settle for small one from a clever vending machine nearby.
