UPDATED – JANUARY 13, 2018 – RB Devonte Williams has announced his intent to transfer to Southeastern Louisiana University. Following the disappointing and sudden end to the 2017 Indiana football season, it is time, perhaps reluctantly, to look ahead to the 2018 season. You can review the 2018 schedule here. Today we look at who’s leaving and coming back as the 2018 roster takes shape.

Most of us know by now that new Indiana basketball coach Archie Miller grew up as a coach’s son, played point guard in high school, and in college, at North Carolina State. So we wondered, do point guards really make better coaches? Unaware of any scientific method to test this, we started by selecting the Top 10 winningest coaches…
