Updated April 7, 2018 It may seem like Indiana’s 2017 season just ended in West Lafayette, but that was more than three months ago and March is here. Spring football practice begins for Indiana on Saturday, March 2. Today we look at who is gone, who is coming back, and who is new on the the 2018 roster. A number of 2018 recruits and transfers have already enrolled and will be at spring practice. We took a look at those January enrollees a few weeks ago. Perhaps the biggest open question for 2018 was whether wide receiver Simmie Cobbs would…
The Indiana University women’s basketball team may have run out of gas after last night’s amazing four overtime thriller against Michigan State. On less than 24 hours rest the Hoosiers had to face the #2 seeded Maryland Terrapins. Indiana kept it close for much of the game but struggled to knock down shots late and Maryland eventually pulled away 67-54. Indiana shot 39% from the field for the game including only 21% from distance. Indiana now sits at 17-14 and must wait and see if their late season improvement is enough to convince the NCAA selection committee to invite them…
You know that relaxed feeling that you had when Indiana ran out to a 24-8 first half lead? The IU players had it too. And it got them beat. From that point forward Rutgers had more energy in just about every aspect of the game and it followed a red hot Corey Sanders to victory. The Hoosiers’ misery in the Big Ten tournament continues, and now they are left to wait to see if they will be invited to any postseason play. If you believe this NIT bracketology, Indiana was barely in that tournament before last night’s loss. After so…

The Indiana University women’s basketball team survived perhaps the most dramatic game in the history of the Big Ten tournament with a thrilling 111-109 four overtime victory. The Hoosiers improved to 17-13 on the season and keep their NCAA tournament hopes alive with the victory. The game contained a little bit of everything, including a clock malfunction at the end of the first overtime. Michigan State had hit what appeared to be the game winning shot at the buzzer, but the clock did not function properly in that final sequence and the officials were forced to determine that the shot…

You can always tell that it is Big Ten Tournament time when the calendar says February and you find yourself in New York City. *Insert screeching tire sound* Wait, what? Ready or not, the Big Ten tournament tips-off today at 5:30 PM ET at Madison Square Garden. For Indiana, the objective seems clear — run the table — or wind up in the NIT. At 16-14 with some really bad losses and no real quality wins, anything short of winning the tournament won’t be enough to make the big dance. While Indiana’s first opponent, the winner of Rutgers and Minnesota,…
What a difference six weeks can make. On January 16, Indiana let a fourth quarter lead slip away on the road and lost to No. 14 Maryland 74-70. The loss left the struggling Hoosiers with an 8-12 overall record and a 1-6 mark in Big Ten play. Any thoughts of playing in the postseason seemed more fantasy than anything based in reality. The schedule wasn’t ready to let up after that tough loss the Terrapins. The Hoosiers would have to go back out on the road and face a Michigan State team that had defeated IU in Bloomington only a…
