Disaster averted. At least for now. They say a win is a win — a “Big Ten win” as IU head coach Archie Miller called his team’s 66-62 victory against Northwestern on Wednesday night. There is no arguing any of that. Indiana did indeed win. But disturbing is disturbing, and that might be the best word to describe the current state of the IU basketball program. Things change over the course of a season, and right now IU can get to work on improving after a win, pulling one out in Bloomington against a team that ostensibly is the Big…

Tom Allen said that he wanted to keep the same offense, and Indiana is promoting from within for its next play caller. Former tight ends and quarterbacks coach Nick Sheridan will take over the reigns from Kalen DeBoer according to multiple reports. John Brice was the first to report the news, and Bruce Feldman of Fox Sports also reported via Twitter. Feldman reported that receivers coach Grant Heard was also being promoted to Co-offensive coordinator. The 31 year old Sheridan has spent the last three seasons at Indiana, and 2019 was his first as the tight ends coach. He oversaw…

With Indiana fans currently obsessing over how long it should take to turn around a college basketball program, Northwestern presents a different question — what does that even mean? If you had asked any Wildcat fan whether head coach Chris Collins had turned around the NU program in 2017, the answer would have been an unwavering yes. That was after the Wildcats had made their first ever NCAA Tournament and advanced to the second round. Since then, Northwestern has produced a losing record each year and the trend signs are pointing down. The turnaround is only step one. As the…

Saturday at Maryland, Indiana had things going in reverse. On an individual level for a point guard, a longstanding benchmark for the assist to turnover ratio has been 2-to-1. Teams rarely reach that standard as a group. Notre Dame leads the country right now at 1.96. The top 50 teams nationally are all above 1.2. There were several things on the offensive end of the floor that were problematic for the Hoosiers against the Terrapins, but compiling a season low 7 assists against 14 turnovers was one statistical measure that jumped off the table. 14 turnovers in a tough road…
