Call it wishful thinking. Back in May when it was announced that Evan Fitzner would transfer to Indiana, we speculated, no, we hoped that the final scholarship claimed by the St. Mary’s forward was available because walk-on Zach McRoberts had turned it down. There is no doubt that McRoberts deserved it. The Carmel, Indiana native started the last 17 games of the 2017-18 season and shot a team-high 39.4 percent from 3-point range. Best known for his defensive prowess, McRoberts was among the Big Ten leaders in steals with 1.4 overall, and 1.7 in Big Ten play. McRoberts was also Academic…

On a day when Indiana was honoring college football hall of famer George Taliaferro, it was going to take a legendary effort for the underdog Hoosiers to pull the upset over Iowa. Instead, a bigger and more disciplined Iowa team imposed their will. IU penalties and mistakes took care of the rest. Early struggles out of the gate put the Hoosiers in a hole. IU overcame their first mistake of the game, when a fumble on the run/pass option exchange between Peyton Ramsey and Stevie Scott nearly stalled the Hoosiers’ first drive. But the Hoosiers recovered the ball in first…
After a long stretch of mediocrity, and sometimes worse, it may be difficult to imagine Indiana football in the midst of national rankings and 8 win seasons. Today we look back to just such a time. It was October 29, 1988. On a crisp and sunny late October southern Indiana day before a sellout crowd at Memorial Stadium, The 5-1-1 Indiana Hoosiers hosted the 4-2-2 Iowa Hawkeyes. Indiana was coming off its first loss of the season at Michigan and was looking for a bounce back game before a national television audience. Indiana got off to an inauspicious start, as…
Indiana University basketball class of 2019 five-star recruiting target Trayce Jackson-Davis announced his final three schools via Twitter on Friday evening: https://twitter.com/TrayceJackson/status/1050884308842483718 The announcement may come as somewhat of a surprise to Hoosier fans. Perhaps the better way to look at it is that Jackson-Davis is cleansing his list of schools (Iowa, Wake Forest, Purdue) that were never serious possibilities to begin with. Beyond that, it is likely that nothing significant has changed here. The Greenwood, Indiana based power forward wrapped-up his official visits last weekend with a trip to Michigan State. Some viewed an Indiana commitment as imminent following…
When the 2018 Indiana schedule was released, you just knew this game would have special meaning. Homecoming, and an Iowa program that Indiana needs to start winning against to get where it wants to go. With the passing of IU legend George Taliaferro this week, the game takes on an even bigger meaning, and the Hoosiers will be replacing their traditional helmet decals with his No. 44 in honor of the college football hall of famer and trailblazing pioneer. The Hawkeyes are right where they always are — around the top 25, as the occupy the next tier beneath the…
It isn’t overstating it to call Saturday’s noon kickoff against Iowa the game of the year for Indiana. Either the Hoosiers figure out a way to win a game that they are expected to lose, or the cycle of fast starts followed by a slow spiral into the pit of misery continues. Will the Hoosiers be fighting, scratching and clawing for six wins by the end of the season, or is an eight win season a real possibility? For help with what to expect, we go behind enemy lines to see what the Iowa media is saying about the big…
