Indiana's battle against Ohio State at Memorial Stadium highlights Hoosiers' strong commitment to the military

There are a couple of anti-aircraft guns and part of the USS Indiana, including the mast, sitting outside Memorial Stadium on the campus of Indiana University in Bloomington.

It’s all a tribute to the men and women from Indiana who have served in the armed forces of the United States.

As No. 5 Indiana, the defending national champion, hosts No. 4 Ohio State in a Big Ten college football mega-tilt on Saturday at Memorial Stadium, OutKick's Game of the Week, the connection between sporting events on campus and the military is undeniable.

The importance of the military every single day at Indiana University is also undeniable.

"IU definitely has an upper echelon of military history, and they do really treat their military personnel with a lot of respect," said Vasiliios Koultourides, a senior at Indiana and a member of the Indiana National Guard. "They do really care about us. "

And Indiana University cares about its military history, not just by displaying relics outside the football stadium, but by chronicling the military service of every single person with ties to the university with a cherished, one-of-a-kind piece of history carefully and respectfully housed inside the school’s Memorial Student Union on campus.

The Golden Book at Indiana has its own hallowed room there. Dating back to 1898, the book is now a fragile specimen, protected in a clear plastic box that still allows for viewing.

A GENERATION CANNOT REMEMBER 9/11. WE HAVE A DUTY TO MAKE SURE THEY LEARN

The Indiana Daily Student began the initiative to document military service by IU students and staff by publishing a list of those who served in the Spanish-American War. Next was an effort to compile a list of those who had served in the Civil War.

According to Indiana University’s website, each of the 152 pages of the book "lists the names of veterans as well as donors to IU’s Memorial Fund, which sponsored the construction of three buildings on campus in honor of those men and women: Memorial Hall, Indiana Memorial Union, and Memorial Stadium.

"Inside the book, carefully written by hand, are the names of IU alumni who served in the War of 1812, the Black Hawk War, the Mexican War, the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, the Philippine Insurrection, the Mexican Border Expedition, World War I, and World War II."

In 2016, Indiana University began a digital version of the Golden Book and now more than 25,000 names are listed.

"I just think it's the coolest thing ever, and I think it's so unique," said Indiana student Zainab Diouf, who is a member of the Indiana National Guard. "No other school has that, so I think it's such a cool thing, and I really encourage if you're here at IU to go see it."

Koultourides certainly remembers the first time he saw the book. He was touring the Indiana campus while still in high school. The Golden Book mesmerized him.

"I was like, whoa, I’ve never seen anything like this before. It's like a little chapel kind of, but I remember walking up to the book and just looking at it, and that's when it kind of hit me like, oh, this is a memorial for everyone that's ever been (in the military). It’s amazing to see how they've kept such in-depth records about these people's lives and service. It means a lot to know that you're not forgotten, and you'll forever be there and remembered. It's really cool to see."

Indeed, make no mistake, Indiana University doesn’t forget its veterans, or its military-connected students. The school features a comprehensive Center for Veterans and Military Students that offers assistance with benefits, funding, scholarships, career guidance and more.

"The Center for Veterans and Military Students is awesome," Koultourides said." It's a nice area where you can sit, study, and then also meet individuals that are just like you who have shared experiences. Which is really important for a lot of people who have gone and actually deployed, and they come back to school."

Elsewhere on campus, Indiana’s military members are treated with equal importance.

Most athletic teams at Indiana have "Salute to Service" games each season. In addition, military students and veterans have a role in countless athletic events, from running the color guard to helping the cheerleaders fire up the crowd.

At football games, military students pound out pushups after touchdowns. They also fire off a cannon.

"We just have such a big military-oriented culture here. At the football games, you'll see the ROTC on the field cheering on, helping cheer with the cheerleaders. I feel like IU just really loves its veterans and its veteran students and allows us to be students while understanding our service."

That gratitude isn't lost on the students who have committed themselves to our country.

"It's a really nice experience for all of us to really have the opportunity (to be a part of IU's athletic culture)," Koultourides said. "And it shows how thankful they are for what we do for the community and for everyone who serves."

John Goodman admits he felt 'frightened' after the sudden fame he experienced from 'Roseanne'

John Goodman is getting real about the downside of starring in one of the biggest sitcoms of all time.

During a conversation with the SAG-AFTRA Foundation, the 74-year-old actor admitted he was "frightened" by the level of fame he achieved following his starring role in "Roseanne" and other projects.

When asked what his biggest pitfalls were that he wished he would have foreseen, he replied he wished he would have understood fame better.

"I wish I would have taken to it better," he said. "I didn't. I was frightened … I'm my own worst enemy, by far."

ROSEANNE BARR HASN’T SPOKEN TO TV SISTER LAURIE METCALF SINCE SHOW’S CANCELLATION

Earlier in the conversation with interviewer Joe Neumaier, Goodman was asked about the way his career picked up in the late ‘80s and early '90s, and how he shifted from being a more independent actor to being a celebrity.

"It changed ,'" he said. "That's when I was told, ‘You better get a publicist and get a hold of this stuff.’ And I just … I had a bad time dealing with how famous I got all of a sudden, and just [said], ‘Well, that ain’t me.'"

He added, "It took a long time to deal with it, so I got that out of the way. But just the negotiations you have to go through, the things you have to do to sell a film, they're not ideal, but they need to be done. People put a lot of money into these things, and let's help each other out and get this done. They have a job to do, and you have to support it."

At another point in the interview, Goodman shared he agreed to do "Roseanne" "to quit living out of a suitcase," adding that he "hit it off with [Roseanne Barr] immediately, to the point where, and not in an arrogant way, I just knew when I left that I had the job."

"Roseanne" aired on ABC for nine seasons from 1988 to 1997, releasing 222 episodes in its first run and winning four Emmy Awards.

"At the time, the hot shows in television were all wealth porn, like 'Dynasty,' 'Dallas,' stuff like that. And we were sober reality," he said. "Rose said something early on that 'just because we're poor doesn't make us stupid.' And the reason that family stayed together was because of laughter and obvious love. And I think that showed on the screen in a real way."

Following his time on "Roseanne," Goodman starred in many successful movies, including "The Flintstones," "The Big Lebowski," "Monsters Inc." and others, before returning to the role of Dan Conner in the "Roseanne" reboot in 2018.

While successful, the reboot only lasted one season, as it was quickly canceled after Barr made a racist statement on social media in reference to President Barak Obama's senior advisor, Valerie Jarrett.

Just a few weeks later, ABC announced that the show's cast would be returning for a new spin-off, "The Conners," without Barr. The show aired for 112 episodes from 2018 to 2025, with Goodman filming that and "The Righteous Gemstones" at the same time.

"I didn’t think [the 'Roseanne' reboot] was going to go beyond the initial five or six episodes. I thought it’d be a one-off thing, and then we got picked up, and Roseanne got fired," he told The Hollywood Reporter in July 2025. "I thought that was it, and as soon as they dismissed the cast, I picked up 'Righteous Gemstones.' Then we got to do the show again as 'The Conners.' I didn’t know how long it would last, but I sure enjoyed it while I was there."

When speaking to the outlet, he also shared that he and Barr had not spoken "for about seven or eight years" at the time, adding "I’d rather doubt if she wants to talk to me."

Barr told listeners of her podcast, "The Roseanne Barr Podcast," in March that she felt "betrayed" by Goodman due to his decision to scale back his appearances on the show in the later seasons.

"I don't think I heard it from his agent, I think I heard it from the producers of the show actually [that] he doesn't want to be on the show anymore," she explained. "I think they said he'll do six of the 24 or something like that."

Trump's new press secretary out of the job just days after rocky debut

Katie Zacharia is leaving her role as White House press secretary after only seven days following a rocky first week on the job, a source familiar confirmed to Fox News Digital.

President Donald Trump told Zacharia to "reconsider" the role, revealing to members of the press on the South Lawn on Friday that he told her: "You don't have to do this if you don't want to… I think you should reconsider."

A senior White House official tells Fox News that Katie is now "transitioning out" of the role. 

It comes as her one-week tenure was marked by mounting scrutiny over her legal credentials and a rocky debut before the White House press corps on Tuesday.  Critics have taken aim at Zacharia over her recent interviews attempting to recover from the bumpy start. 

Zacharia was named to the role Oct. 9 and stepped behind the White House podium for her first press briefing just days later on Oct. 13. The briefing lasted 14 minutes and Zacharia took only three questions.

"Maybe it’s not for her," Trump acknowledged in his brief remarks outside the White House on Friday.

TRUMP NAMES LEAVITT SUCCESSOR AFTER WEEKS OF SPECULATION — AND SHE'S NO STRANGER TO MAGA 

When pressed if this update meant that Trump fired Zacharia, the president walked back. "No no. I want her to have a good life," he said. 

"She’s been brutalized by the media," Trump added. 

During an appearance on "Hannity" Thursday night, Zacharia was pressed over whether she could refer to herself as an attorney. Zacharia admitted she did not pass the bar exam and never obtained a law license in the United States.

"I had already pre-registered for the bar exam, and basically during the summer, I knew I would be living in China and the result of the bar would be inconsequential. I sat for it because I didn't want to have a withdraw status," she said.

WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS WIDELY PRAISE KAROLINE LEAVITT AS SHE ANNOUNCES EXIT FROM TRUMP ADMINISTRATION

Zacharia was also pressed on her fumbled briefing. 

"What I feel is I really stepped up to the plate with very little prep time," Zacharia said. "Given the fact that I'd been on the job less than maybe eight hours and had a briefing book in the morning, I feel like I did my very best, Sean, to deliver for the American people that day."

Zacharia's debut drew scrutiny over several verbal stumbles, including a moment when she mistakenly referred to her husband as "my president" before correcting herself, as well as the briefing's brevity, during which she took questions from just three journalists in 14 minutes.

Karoline Leavitt’s first White House press briefing lasted nearly 47 minutes, while Sean Spicer’s debut ran roughly 79 minutes. While Sarah Huckabee Sanders’ first briefing as press secretary lasted about 23 minutes in 2017.

TRUMP'S NEW PRESS SECRETARY FACES FIRST MAJOR TEST AS WHITE HOUSE BRIEFING ROOM ENTERS NEW ERA

A White House official told MS NOW earlier this week that she could end up with a shorter tenure than Anthony Scaramucci, whose notoriously brief stint as President Donald Trump's White House communications director lasted just 10 days before he was ousted in July 2017.

"Getting behind the podium is tough, but she got off on the wrong foot," the unnamed White House official said. "She needs to get much better, fast, otherwise she'll break Scaramucci's record."

Zacharia clearly did not recover enough in her short media sprint this week — where she attempted to clear up confusion about her lawyer credentials — and instead was pushed out of the job on Friday without another shot at the podium. 

The White House doubled down on supporting Zacharia Wednesday when asked by Fox News Digital for comment on the Scaramucci comparison reportedly coming from the White House.

"Katie is a fabulous and wonderful addition to the team. She is uniquely qualified and whip smart to help inform the American people about all the great things President Trump and his Administration have been doing, and she will do an incredible job as Press Secretary," White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told Fox News Digital.

The White House X account @PressSec, formerly run by Leavitt before switching to White House Press Office, never switched over to Zacharia, and has still not posted since Oct. 7.

Zacharia, whom Trump described as an attorney when announcing her appointment, previously served as senior communications adviser to Trump Media & Technology Group, which operates the president's social media platform, Truth Social.

She also served earlier this year as deputy assistant secretary for public affairs and a spokesperson for the Department of Homeland Security for just six weeks.

Troy Aikman responds to report of tensions in the booth with Joe Buck over contract situation

Former Dallas Cowboys quarterback and ESPN Monday Night Football analyst Troy Aikman was given the opportunity on Thursday to refute there has been tension between himself and broadcast partner Joe Buck and he didn't take it.

He didn't deny it. Actually, he kind of fed into it.

So the broadcast team that has been together for more than two decades and is slated to broadcast Super Bowl LXI on Feb. 14, the first ever on ESPN, apparently has beef.

"There's probably a time and a place for all that to be discussed," Aikman said about the situation on Sportsradio 96.7 in Dallas on Thursday. "I don't know if now is the time.

DOLPHINS CONSULTANT TROY AIKMAN WILL BE LIMITED IN MNF ROLE LIKE RAIDERS MINORITY OWNER TOM BRADY IS ON FOX

"I don't know if it's hard to figure out kind of what's happened."

Aikman was asked specifically whether a report of tension between him and Buck prior to Monday night's game between the Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Rams is true. And that was his answer.

The bright, articulate analyst who breaks down plays immediately after they happen didn't tear down a report by Front Office Sports that he and Buck had an argument before they worked the game together. And over what? The fact Buck has signed a new contract to remain with Disney/ ABC/ ESPN as the play-by-play man on Monday Night Football, and Aikman doesn't have any deal in place beyond this season.

There has been ongoing tension between the longtime partners about this season and FOS reported Buck "broke the ice" on this tension, but he and Aikman had an argument as a result.

Tensions obviously cooled and the two men broadcast the game and apparently intend to continue broadcasting together through the Super Bowl. But what happens after that remains uncertain.

NFL ANALYST TONY ROMO PLACED ON LEAVE BY CBS SPORTS FOLLOWING DRUNK DRIVING ARREST IN WISCONSIN

"I'll broadcast through this season and I'll be a free agent at the end of the year and kind of see what happens," Aikman said. "I'm looking forward to whatever the rest of this year does hold and the Super Bowl and all that, and where my next landing spot might be."

It's unknown what specifically has fed into this drama between Aikman and Buck.

It could be that the pair had a gentleman's agreement to form a united front in their contract talks and Buck broke ranks. It could also be that Aikman is simply envious of his partner getting a new deal. Whatever it is, this incident puts both men in the crosshairs. Critics will now watch MNF for further signs of tension. And both ESPN and Buck will continue to be asked for comment on the issue, which neither has so far provided.

ESPN declined comment.

And one has to wonder: What is it with these former Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks turned broadcasters?

While Aikman is apparently in a contract squabble with Disney/ ABC/ ESPN, Tony Romo is out at CBS after he was arrested and pleaded no contest to OWI (Operating While Intoxicated) charges in Wisconsin.

Romo has said through various statements that he is seeking help for his apparent use of alcohol and painkillers.

So next year there could be two former Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks on the analyst free agent market.

Ethan Hawke blasts Hollywood's 'greedy bastards,' predicts massive rebellion against powerful elites

Ethan Hawke isn't holding back when it comes to the powerful forces he believes are controlling the entertainment industry.

During a new interview with GQ, the Oscar-nominated actor took aim at wealthy power players, blasting "greedy bastards" who think they control every aspect of Hollywood and predicting a major rebellion against the industry.

"I believe in rebellion. And I think people are going to wake up and punch back and there’s going to be massive movements in music and massive movements in live theater and massive movements of people getting together," Hawke said.

FROM ‘SCREAM’ TO STREAM: JAMIE KENNEDY REVEALS HOW HOLLYWOOD LOST ITS WAY AND WHY HE WON'T GIVE UP ON LA

"So don’t worry that the money and the greedy bastards that think they control everybody, they always lose in the end," he continued. "And they’re all going in the grave eventually. They think they’re winning, but they’re losing because their lives are worthless."

Hawke also expressed frustration with the financial pressures shaping Hollywood, arguing that the projects actors care about most often come with the smallest paychecks.

TRUMP, SCHIFF FORGE UNLIKELY ALLIANCE AS HOLLYWOOD BLEEDS JOBS

"There's a direct correlation. I find that the more you love a project, the less you get paid," he said. "If you want to beat the algorithm, it's very difficult to do that and be paid."

This isn't the first time Hawke has spoken about the pitfalls of Hollywood.

ROBERT DOWNEY JR. SLAMS MODERN CELEBRITY CULTURE AS 'ABSOLUTE HORSES---'

Last year, the actor called celebrity a "poison" for a young actor's brain.

During an appearance on "The Joe Rogan Experience," Hawke got candid about his start in Hollywood as a young man and reflected on the psychological effect of becoming famous at a young age.

"I think celebrity is like a tiny drop of mercury. Or it's poison. It's poison for your brain," the actor said. "To be a professional actor at a young age, it's dangerous in extremely insidious ways that are very, very hard to perceive when it's happening," Hawke said.

Rogan compared the experience of becoming famous as a child to concrete. If concrete is made incorrectly, with the wrong amount of water or cement, that's it, he explained. Rogan added that once it dries there is no way to repair or fix it.

DISNEY ALUM CHRISTY CARLSON ROMANO RIPS HOLLYWOOD FOR FAILING CHILD STARS AFTER HAYDEN PANETTIERE’S DEATH

"That analogy works for all walks of life. Really. If you have something really traumatic happen in childhood, it's very hard to recover. It's a tremendous amount of work to recover. And I agree with you, like I think celebrity is like a tiny drop of mercury. Or it's a poison. It's a poison for your brain," Hawke said.

During his GQ interview, Hawke expressed the same sentiment.

"I wouldn’t be the first person to say that there’s an aspect of celebrity that is like a disease," he said. "And you can handle little bits of it, but too much of it — we can see what happened to Elvis and we can see Michael Jackson. It’s a form of isolation. It’s like being put in a zoo, and zoo animals go nuts. So do human beings."

"And it seems like a kind of nice isolation because people are giving you money, and they’re telling you you’re wonderful, but nobody’s being real with you," he continued. "And that makes people insane. And they start scratching, trying to find some real life. And sometimes people do that with drugs, some people do that with acting out or getting in fights or whatever the ways that people do it."

Last year, fellow actor Dakota Johnson also ripped into Hollywood, calling the industry an absolute "mess."

During her appearance on the show "Hot Ones," Johnson was asked why "Hollywood is risk-averse."

"I think it’s hard when creative decisions are made by a committee, and it’s hard when creative decisions are made by people who don’t even really watch movies or know anything about them … that tends to be what’s occurring a lot," Johnson shared with host Sean Evans.

Johnson, who has grown up in the business as the daughter of actors Melanie Griffith and Don Johnson, is no stranger to the inner workings of Hollywood.

The "Fifty Shades of Grey" actress’ comments come as studios continue to create sequels and remakes, with original storytelling often sidelined.

"When something does well … studios want to keep that going so they remake the same things," she claimed. "But humans don’t want that. They want fresh. They want to feel new things, experience new things, see new things."

She added, "So I don’t know, I guess it’s all just a bit of a mess right now, isn’t it?"

‘Paid for the bullets’: Dem challenger hits senator with stunning ICE accusation during fiery Senate debate

Fierce disagreement broke out on the debate stage on Tuesday evening as Sen. Susan Collins, R-Maine, defended her record against accusations that she had enabled the death of Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero at the hands of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Troy Jackson, her Democratic opponent, argued Collins had facilitated the deadly encounter on the three-month anniversary of the incident by funding what he described as a "rogue agency."

"Look, Senator Collins paid for the bullets and at Donald Trump's command. Now she wants credit for not pulling the trigger," Jackson said, referring to the roughly $70 billion in funding for immigration enforcement agencies included in the Secure America Act, a party-line bill that extended provisions for the agency through the end of Trump’s term.

TRUMP TAKES ICE SHUTDOWNS OFF THE TABLE WITH SIGNATURE ON KEY $70B BILL

"That's the choice on this stage. A senator who helps Donald Trump hurt Maine then tells us how concerned she is, or somebody who will stand up against him before another family in Maine has to pay the price."

Guerrero’s shooting has become a flash point in Trump’s immigration enforcement push, especially in the Maine Senate race where Democrats have used his death to illustrate broader critiques of Collins: that her occasional willingness to break with the majority of the GOP hasn’t meaningfully curbed the administration’s policies. But at the debate on Tuesday evening, the third between Collins and Jackson, Collins pushed back on the narrative, arguing that her power as a Republican senator has been key to implementing a handful of safeguards on an agency that she described as critical to American safety.

"After the Biddeford shooting, I called the Secretary of Homeland Security, [and] met with the acting director and suggested that they prioritize Maine for receipt of these body-worn cameras. And they did. And every ICE agent in the state of Maine and across the country now has the body-worn cameras," Collins said at the debate on Tuesday.

"I increased by 17% the budget for the independent Office of Inspector General," Collins added.

Guerrero, a 25-year-old Colombian national, was fatally shot in Biddeford on July 13 when he tried to flee ICE officers in a vehicle during an operation targeting an illegal immigrant with a final order of removal, according to the Department of Homeland Security.

Guerrero was not the target of the operation.

'SQUAD' MEMBER CALLS DHS 'GREATEST THREAT TO OUR SAFETY' AFTER ICE-INVOLVED SHOOTING

"The vehicle attempted to flee the scene and, fearing for public safety, an officer discharged his weapon. The driver of the vehicle was struck and emergency services were immediately contacted. He passed away from his injuries," DHS said in a statement at the time.

In Jackson’s estimation, the moment is emblematic of what he described as an agency out of control.

"That is why I believe that this agency is just a rogue agency that's doing Donald Trump's bidding," Jackson said.

"I do believe it's important to get rid of it and take that money and prioritize it into existing law enforcement that actually people believe in."

Like many progressives, Jackson has argued that the agency is beyond the scope of reform, sharing the view of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). The group, which backed Jackson in his gubernatorial bid earlier this year before he became a candidate for Senate, calls the agency "a violent and illegitimate agency."

Jackson has shared almost that exact framing, similarly stating that ICE "is not legitimate law enforcement," in a debate from last Thursday.

Collins disagrees.

On Tuesday, she argued that the agency, although flawed, serves an important role in American law enforcement, pointing out that its role overlaps with many other forms of law enforcement.

"It investigates child trafficking, human trafficking and general child exploitation: drug smuggling, international cartels, financial scams. It recently helped shut down a child pornography ring in the state of Maine. I don't think any of us wants to go back to the days of completely open, uncontrolled borders. That is dangerous for us," Collins argued.

EXCLUSIVE: DHS SECRETARY MULLIN SLAMS SANCTUARY POLITICIANS AS ATTACKS ON ICE OFFICERS SKYROCKET

"I think what happened is far too many ICE officers were hired and deployed without adequate vetting and training. But let us not forget the important work that ICE does, which is why it should be reformed and not abolished, as Troy has said."

Having secured their parties’ respective nominations, Collins and Jackson will face off in the state’s Nov. 3 general election.
