College basketball recruiting is full steam ahead as schools power towards the November early signing period. Indiana is of course no exception, with head coach Archie Miller and his assistants in full court press mode to put the finishing touches on the class of 2020 and establish their 2021 priorities. Here are some noteworthy nuggets that have emerged from the recruiting trail during the latter part of week two of the fall live period. 2020 POINT GUARD HIERARCHY EMERGES We’ve said it repeatedly — Indiana needs a primary ball handler in the 2020 class with Devonte Green set to graduate.…
The Boston Celtics are on track to get something that IU saw very little of — a fully healthy Romeo Langford. Langford tore a ligament in his right thumb last November and had surgery in April. Ben Stinar of Amico Hoops reported that Langford’s thumb is fully healed and the 6-foot-6 shooting guard has been playing for a few weeks without restrictions. https://twitter.com/BenStinar/status/1174340755151867905?s=20 Langford injured the thumb right before the Duke game in practice. He played in 32 games for Indiana and missed three postseason NIT contests with a back injury. The five-star recruit led the Hoosiers with 16.5 points…

When it comes to rounding out the recruiting class of 2020, Dawson Garcia sits atop the wish list of most Indiana fans. The 6-foot-11 Garcia would fill a major need for IU with his length, and his versatile inside/out game aligns well with what head coach Archie Miller is looking for. Garcia’s final seven was announced today via Tipton Edits on Twitter. https://twitter.com/TiptonEdits/status/1174037582209961984?s=20 As the graphic illustrates, IU is competing with North Carolina, Arizona, Memphis, Kansas, Marquette and Minnesota for the Prior Lake High School forward. The list should be cut further for all practical intents and purposes very soon…
At 2-1 on the still young 2019 season, the Indiana football team is right where most thought they would be going into program’s 135th campaign. When it comes to the wins and losses, there haven’t been any surprises. What choppy start, right? But when you start to peel back the layers, there are several particulars that don’t meet the preseason expectations. And when coupled with a crushing 51-10 loss to Ohio State in what has recently been a much more competitive series, the cause for concern here feels legitimate. Exhibit A is the running game, and in particular Indiana’s inability…

Last week we told you who Archie Miller was prioritizing on the recruiting trail. One of those investments is paying off. Point guard is a priority in the 2020 class for Indiana, and the Hoosiers will get a chance to make a big impression with a top 100 talent at that position. New York native Hassan Diarra has scheduled an official visit to IU based on a report by Andrew Slater on Twitter. https://twitter.com/Andrew__Slater/status/1173731006983094272?s=20 Based on Slater’s report the official visit would begin on or around September 27.
