Trust, Player Accountability Key in IU’s Football Training Plan

IUHoosiers.com

BLOOMINGTON, Ind. - If Indiana is to get through this pandemic in Big Ten ready football shape, players have to do the work, Aaron Wellman and his strength coaching staff have to provide the plan and the season-opening green light has to flash as brightly as a sun-kissed fall day.

In other words, trust is key, motivation is high and dedication is crucial.

NCAA rules prohibit Wellman, senior assistant athletic director for football performance, from virtual coaching the Hoosiers through their stay-off-campus training.

But given the promise of the upcoming season (IU returns a ton of talent on both sides of the ball from an 8-5 TaxSlayer Bowl team), the hope is everyone is doing what needs to be done.
