Jay Edwards. Steve Alford. Calbert Cheaney. Eric Gordon.

Though it hasn’t even been a full month since Indiana’s 82-59 drubbing of the Rutgers Scarlet Knights, it felt like decades have passed between then and Indiana’s 92-74 win over Oregon Monday night.

Indiana men’s basketball wouldn’t have won its past two overtime games without Lamar Wilkerson and head coach Darian DeVries seems to know it.

Indiana men’s basketball splitting its trip to Los Angeles was helpful for its NCAA Tournament case. That’s what Joe Lunardi seems to think, at least. The Hoosiers moved up from a 10-seed to a 9-seed in Lunardi’s latest projection over on ESPN. As of Friday he has Indiana heading to San Diego in the West […]
