It's amazing how one season to the next they word are near unbeatable and now they can't find a win. If this keeps going on it makes you wonder if you'll see wholesale changes. This city has locked onto soccer into a major way and that could lead to an MLS expansion team but I fear that poor play could lead to poor attendance so we'll see how true blue the Indy soccer fan is

    • Yah, I corrected the above and it was in 2023 for the HC position, but still... as a defensive coach, Martindale would have the biggest say and possibly the biggest disagreements with Ballard precisely on the side of the ball he has expertise in. At least that's my assumption. Of course, I could be wrong here and we will never know. I don't even know what would be big enough disagreement that Martindale would even mention it later after not getting the job.
    • I bet they wanted him to stand on the sideline in nothing but a pink silk g-string! Good for Wink Martindale refusing a demand like that. Good for us too!
    • No we haven’t. We used Johnson last year anytime Buckner or Stewart was out
    • Generally agreed, but the point I'm trying to make is that I think interior OL/DL have more impact on the passing game than they get credit for. Particularly a great 3T, there's just no answer for that player. But yeah, we're talking about real game changers at those positions, not just stacking up multiple JAGs and saying 'we're solid at DT.'      I guess we'll never know. But to be clear, the Colts interviewed Martindale for HC in 2023, not DC in 2022.   And to my point, why would Chris 'We Run Cover 3 Zone' Ballard interview a defensive coach who runs a 3-4 as a potential HC? Why would he interview him twice? I can't imagine that Ballard thought Martindale would completely change his defensive philosophy, which is one of the reasons his candidacy never made sense to me in the first place. I guess you see it the other way, and I get that, especially in light of that quote. But since the job was HC and not DC, that could have been about something other than defensive philosophy.
