They discuss what the future looks like for Bennedict Mathurin and Jarace Walker with the Pacers.
(26:37-41:49) – Former IU tight end, Dan Thompson, joins Greg Rakestraw to talk about his alma mater capturing the College Football Playoff Championship on Monday night, what it means to him to see IU as the best team in the sport, shares how he thinks Bill Mallory would be feeling right now if he was still with us, and comments on the growth from Fernando Mendoza at his time at Cal to Indiana this season.
(41:49-46:21) – The first hour of the show concludes with Greg Rakestraw highlighting some of the insane stats that he has found to put into perspective how great this Indiana football team was and the number of people that had their eyes on the game Monday night.
(46:21-1:09:58) – The Fan Morning Show’s Kevin Bowen makes his weekly appearance on Query & Company and his conversation with Greg Rakestraw starts with the report that Philip Rivers will be interviewing for the Buffalo Bills head coach vacancy. Kevin also points to the two coordinators for the Colts being in the mix for other teams and comments on the future of Michael Pittman Jr. with the franchise.
(1:09:58-1:21:14) – With the NFL Combine staying in Indianapolis and the Hoosiers having several players eligible in April’s draft, Greg and Eddie look at all the different players that could be selected in day two and wonder if this could be a historic draft for the IU football program.
(1:21:14-1:32:19) – Hour number two of the show concludes with Jerry Palm from PalmBrackets.com joining to give some of his early thoughts on the NCAA Tournament. Greg asks Jerry where he has Notre Dame, Butler, Indiana, and Purdue right now and who he believes the four best teams in college basketball are.

Indy Ignite middle blocked Lydia Martin calls into the program to preview tomorrow’s home opener against the Omaha Supernovas, what has led to the team’s 3-0 start to the season, explains what is different this year with Head Coach Lauren Bertolacci compared to last year, and shares what she has liked most about living in Indianapolis.
