Fernando Mendoza quickly learned to not look forward to watching a highlight moment on film, or wait for a pat on the back from Curt Cignetti after a big play.

The same day on repeat is working out okay for Curt Cignetti
One of Curt Cignetti’s favorite mantras is “how you do something is how you do everything.” For the IU head coach, it seems that guiding principle extends beyond the football field.
