The 2021 college basketball offseason is going to be a wild ride. With seniors able to return for an extra year of eligibility, and the expected passage of a rule providing for a one-time exception to the requirement that transfers sit out a season, what rosters will look like in the fall is anyone’s guess. With just one class of 2021 high school signee, Indiana is expected to have available scholarships and be active in the offseason transfer market. One player who hit the transfer portal earlier this week was former Pittsburgh point guard Xavier Johnson. We brought him to…

Well that escalated quickly. Over the course of an hour, a promising start against Rutgers became in all likelihood the final nails in the coffin of the 2020-21 season and possibly a coach’s tenure. Early in Indiana’s game against Michigan State on Saturday it appeared that the Hoosiers were well on their way to a fourth win in five games. Now, suddenly, after a mirror image collapse against Rutgers, IU has instead lost three of four and appears to be lost, broken, and dare we say it — throwing in the towel. Next up is precisely the Big Ten team…

With only four games left in the regular season, it is put up or shut up time for Indiana. Coming off a disappointing meltdown against Michigan State, the Hoosiers venture out to the road again, where they have won just three times all season in seven tries. While home court isn’t quite the same this season, Rutgers continues to be a tough out at the Rutgers Athletic Center, where they are 36-9 over the last two seasons and will be hosting a senior night on Wednesday. But winners of just five of their last 13 contests, the Scarlet Knights have…
