Curt Cignetti still doesn’t know what Bloomington looks like. Not in the light, at least.
He lives there, in a university-owned house a couple blocks away from downtown, but time hasn’t been on his side. The best he’s done is the occasional drive past it, from that house all the way to the athletic facilities, his new office.
He leaves in the dark. He gets home in the dark, sometimes after midnight.
Those hours aren’t fun, but they’re necessary. A few hours now for months of a (hopefully) competitive roster next fall. This is the most important time of the year as a college head coach, and Cignetti wasn’t about to miss it.
