Terry Hoeppner is a name everyone should know after Indiana's National Championship win 🙌 Clinton Yates | Courtney Cronin

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin Terry Hoeppner coached a total of 23 games at IU before passing away in June 2007. Twenty years after coaching his last game, we still have “Hep’s Rock” outside Memorial Stadium. That’s how much he meant to Indiana football, despite being there so briefly.

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin Thanks for repping Coach Hep. He was the coach when I went there and always respected him and I think the team did too.

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin Thank you, Hep was a special coach and believed IU could become a special place. He was right.

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin I wore my coach Hep pin all season every game this year! Hep was an awesome awesome human. I was at IU 01-06 and was so sad when he passed. Glad you brought him up…Go Hoosiers!

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin Go hep … he started it GO IU 🏆 Heps Rock .. stands for a lot

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin For Hep

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin Thank you for sharing! Coach Hep is the reason I’m an IU football fan. I’m forever grateful for the enthusiasm he encouraged in us young Hoosiers. I proudly wore my “HEP” pin and old “Coach Hep Got Me” student section shirt when we claimed that trophy!

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin I met Coach Hoeppner one day on the field in Bloomington shortly after taking the job. It was one of my Hoosier highlights as a 40 year fan. Special people make an impression immediately. He was there in Miami 🙏

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin That is absolutely correct. Coach Hoeppner would been successful if he hadn’t. Kudos to you for recognizing that fact.

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin Couldn’t agree more. I often wonder how this program would have turned had Coach Hoeppner not been taken from us far too early.

@ClintonNFriends @clintonyates @CourtneyRCronin RIP Coach Hep! ❤️
