(Note: See this Sunday update) Indiana and Creighton have long been thought to be class of 2021 forward Mason Miller’s top two schools, and he confirmed that on Saturday afternoon. Miller announced that the Hoosiers and Blue Jays were his final two schools on his social media accounts. https://twitter.com/Mason_milllla/status/1327706348365230085?s=20 Miller has never visited the Indiana campus or basketball facilities due to the COVID-19 pandemic. A national 247Sports report indicated that Miller and his family took a self-guided tour of Creighton and may attempt to do the same thing in Bloomington. The 6-foot-9 Miller is the son of former NBA player…

Indiana took away the ball from Michigan State three times in the first half in East Lansing on their way to a fast start and a big early lead. When it was all over they took home the Old Brass Spittoon. It looked like IU could be in for a long day when quarterback Michael Penix, Jr. threw an interception on the first drive and left the field with an apparent limp. But as they have done throughout the first half of the 2020 season, Indiana’s defense provided a spark. By halftime, it was a Hoosier inferno on both sides…
What do we have here? Just over a year ago Indiana traveled to East Lansing to face Michigan State as a 14 point underdog. What a difference a year makes. The point spread has reversed by a more than 21 point margin, and the top ten ranked Hoosiers find themselves in a strange place. Could a game in East Lansing be labeled a trap game?

No. 10 INDIANA (3-0) at MICHIGAN STATE (1-2)…

Trey Galloway, a high level student at the rigorous Culver Academies. Khristian Lander? Far enough along academically to just go ahead and skip a year of high school. Their commitments? No countdowns, no events, no fanfare. Just a quick Tweet. It was the same “commitment ceremony” approach used by 2019 commits Trayce Jackson-Davis and Armaan Franklin the year prior. None of it is a coincidence. Everything…
