The Hammer Down Show 05-21-26
Q: What is the Tiller Chapter of the National Football Foundation and what does it do?
It was started in 2004 to increase the presence of Indiana and College Football Hall of Famers from the area, recognize local high school scholar athletes, and host an annual Honors Brunch that spotlights community athletes.
Nick Yeoman on the Indy 500
Q: What moment stands out to you most on race day besides the race itself?
The moment of taps followed by Back Home Again in Indiana is the highlight for me; it captures the solemnity and pageantry of the event, and it's when the entire crowd seems to unify in appreciation before engines fire.

Dienhart notes an uptick in visits from higher-caliber recruits, improved staff messaging, and a more positive vibe around the program under the current staff, suggesting momentum in recruiting.

Q: What have you been seeing from running backs and what did Cornell Ford say about that room?
