It was just the second Quad 1 win of the season and the third road win, arguably the second-best resume piece behind the win over Purdue earlier this week. All of that can be true while acknowledging that there was […]
If I were to look at a box score to see that Tucker DeVries and Lamar Wilkerson combined to go 4-15 from 3-point range, as they did tonight, I would have assumed Indiana would have lost the game handily. The Hoosiers have had scoring balance at their best, but it’s usually involved at least one […]

Indiana spent the entirety of its existence right around the bottom of the ladder in college football as a whole, let alone the Big Ten.

Indiana men’s basketball is set to take on UCLA this Saturday on the road at the Pauley Pavilion in Los Angeles.
