Rapid reaction from an Indiana 69-46 loss to Michigan. If you thought it couldn’t get worse at the start of games, you were wrong.  A 17-0 Michigan run from the opening tip ensured that.  The Hoosiers didn’t make their first basket from the field until there were 10 minutes left in the first half. If you thought Indiana couldn’t possibly shoot the ball worse from the field, you were wrong.  A season worst 27.6% from the field ensured that. If you thought this season couldn’t get more bizarre, you were wrong.  Public address announcer Chuck Crabb calling out the shot…

Indiana head football coach Tom Allen’s tenure in Bloomington has become synonymous with the word “breakthrough.”  It should come as no surprise then that he had his eye on Kalen DeBoer for the offensive coordinator position. No one has seen more breaking through in the last few years than DeBoer. As the offensive coordinator at Eastern Michigan in 2016, DeBoer was an instrumental part of an Eagle team that finished tied for the most improved program in the Football Bowl Subdivision.  EMU bettered its win total from one win in 2015, to seven, and the program reached its first bowl…

This is where it all started. Not even three weeks ago, Indiana basketball was on top of the world, or at least seemingly on its way there.  The Hoosiers stood at 12-2 overall, and 3-0 in league play.  Bring on undefeated Michigan, right? Not so much.  Michigan won that game in Ann Arbor 74-63, and from more losses, to more injuries, to a suspension, nothing has gone right since. It’s a long drop from the top of the world, and this Indiana team is rapidly spiraling to that metaphorical bottom. Losers of five in a row since that early January…

Indiana basketball class of 2019 signee Trayce Jackson-Davis was named a McDonald’s All-American on Thursday afternoon. The Greenwood, Indiana native becomes the 31st Indiana player to take part in the event since it started in 1977.  The Hoosiers had two players on that inaugural team.  Romeo Langford was the most recent member. https://twitter.com/IndianaMBB/status/1088537785819107328 Jackson-Davis attends Center Grove High School just south of Indianapolis. You can see the complete list of former Hoosier McDonald’s All-Americans below.

Indiana basketball head coach Archie Miller met with the media on Thursday afternoon to preview Friday night’s game against Michigan. A few notes from the session: De’Ron Davis is “shut down” right now to allow proper time for his ankle to heal.  He will not play against Michigan. Race Thompson, while cleared for full contact, still has a long way to go to get himself in game shape. The Hoosiers and Wolverines tip-off at 6:30 p.m. tomorrow night at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.  The game will be broadcast on FS1. NOTE:  If you are having difficulty hearing the audio, the…

Legendary Indiana basketball radio voice Don Fischer isn’t exactly impartial when it comes to the Hoosiers.  He isn’t thought of as a harsh critic either.  That’s why when he said this on Monday on the Dan Dakich Show, our ears perked up — “My biggest concern with this team right now is they don’t have an edge.  There’s gotta be a fire in your gut.  There’s gotta be an ability to go out there and be excited to play the game.  I’m talking about the fire in the belly, the want to compete, the want to go out there and…

This season.  What can you say? It is truly becoming difficult for Indiana fans to wrap their minds around the seemingly continuous roster news and now accompanying five game losing streak that collectively appear on track to destroy a once promising season. The torture quotient was taken to the next level on Tuesday night against the Wildcats, as a seldom used Northwestern reserve torched the Hoosiers and completely changed the direction of the game.  After scoring just six points all year, forward Aaron Falzon came off the bench and scored 21 points for Northwestern. Before the game even started, junior…

If you are looking for a glimmer of good news during a five game losing streak, Indiana basketball head coach Archie Miller delivered it on Tuesday night. After being out for more than 10 weeks with a concussion, redshirt freshman Race Thompson has been cleared to play. Miller spoke regarding the 6-foot-8 forward on Tuesday night following the loss at Northwestern: “Race has been cleared for this first time for full contact.  He’s participated in our last few practices.  It’s been about 10 weeks since he’s done anything.  I don’t mean done anything, but obviously from an up and down…
