ATLANTA -- Sometimes, Curt Cignetti doesn't even have to say a word. A signal will suffice.
Pat Kuntz and the other Indiana assistant coaches know what each one means. For example, Cignetti, the second-year Hoosiers coach overseeing the most stunning rise in recent college football history, might place his hands next to each other, and then separate them into a V.
"Duck feet," Kuntz, Indiana's defensive tackles coach, told ESPN. "He picks up on those things. You wouldn't see it at first, and then he looks at you and gives you the signal, and then you recheck it."
