On Friday, Yale announced that Tony Reno had died. On Saturday, Dante Reno ran through the tunnel for the first time after his father’s death - he threw for 298 yards and four touchdowns to lead the Bulldogs to a 41-24 win over Merrimack. https://t.co/6x8vcS1h7B

Coach Reno was an amazing coach, mentor and father, who I am so incredibly blessed to have learned from. I am so thankful for the chance he took on me, and opportunities he gave me. His family are in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time 🫶.

Kennedy McGill gets the nod! 🔥

[Leah Lowe @Leah2Go]

Grace Wellman joined Indiana Football in 2025 as a Defensive Student Assistant, working specifically with the defensive ends. Unlike many student positions in college football that center on recruiting or operations, @GraceWellman_ works directly on the coaching side of the program.

Her experience has already extended into the NFL. She has interned with the New York Giants’ outside linebackers, participating in defensive and position meetings and helping with practices and drills. In 2026, she also attended Buffalo Bills OTAs as a guest coach and spent time with Steve Spagnuolo and the Kansas City Chiefs defensive staff during training camp.

She is now in her second season with Indiana Football.

Put some respect on her name.
