Indiana University football coach Curt Cignetti is a stoic guy on the field - but when a game is over, he's a family man.

"I thought this situation was a clash of two worlds. One used to winning, and winning championships, and another where people thought it was impossible. I wasn't going to lower my expectations and standards.
