Indiana is one of eight finalists for class of 2025 top-35 center Malachi Moreno, Joe Tipton of On3 is reporting. The 7-footer from Georgetown, Ky. will also consider Arkansas, Iowa, Kentucky, Louisville, North Carolina, Notre Dame, and Ohio State. Indiana offered Moreno in 2022, and he has been a priority recruit since. He plays for the Indiana Elite 2025 Adidas 3SSB team along with fellow IU targets Trent Sisley and Braylon Mullins. Moreno was the ringleader for the concept of taking an official visit to IU the same weekend as Sisley and Mullins, which they will all three do so…
It’s probably no coincidence, Mike Woodson’s best IU basketball team — his second — was his best three-point shooting team. In three seasons at IU, Woodson has had two teams outside the national top-200 in three-point percentage, and one in the top-40. Woodson’s second team shot 36.8 percent from three, good for No. 39 in the nation. And that squad finished second in the Big Ten, and earned a No. 4 seed in the 2023 NCAA Tournament. Sure, having Trayce Jackson-Davis and Jalen Hood-Schifino on that team made a big difference, but Woodson and his staff also relied on long-range…

Just a few months ago when Clark came to Bloomington, IU recorded their second all-time sellout for a women’s game, and ticket prices soared on the secondary…
“I’m into production over potential.” New IU football coach Curt Cignetti has said variations of that phrase on multiple occasions during his seven months in Bloomington. And it showed as the new head Hoosier assembled his first roster in Bloomington. At several positions Pro Football Focus has said IU has players among the highest-graded returners in the Big Ten. When PFF says returners, they mean players returning to college football from any school and playing in the Big Ten in 2024. According to that measure, IU has three of the top-10 returning wide receivers (Elijah Sarratt, Donaven McCulley, Ke’Shawn Williams),…
