BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - Tom Allen is adamant -- Michael Penix Jr. remains Indiana's starting quarterback.

"I believe in him with 100 percent of my heart," the Hoosier head coach says, "and I know our team feels the same way."

Yes, Penix has struggled in his return from season-ending injury for the third-straight year. He's completing 48.3 percent of his passes for 448 yards, four touchdowns, and six interceptions.

However, he entered the season with a 10-2 record as a starter and was the second-most-accurate passer in school history behind Peyton Ramsey.
