Mike Woodson doesn’t hesitate when you ask him why the program pursued Northwestern transfer Miller Kopp. “We recruited him to come here to make shots,” Woodson has said repeatedly, most recently at Indiana’s media day. Woodson’s desire to find shooters makes sense on multiple levels. Indiana hasn’t shot better than 32.6 percent as a team from 3-point range in any of its last four seasons.  It hasn’t been ranked higher than No. 206 in 3-point percentage during that span, and twice the Hoosiers were outside of the top-300. IU also hasn’t taken many threes over the last four years, a…

Nothing looked right because nothing felt right for then 18-year-old Khristian Lander. The offense wasn’t a good fit, the pace of the game too slow, and his confidence?  It was gone. Fast forward to a new season, a second season, and to what for most people his age would be a true freshman season. Things certainly aren’t going to come easy for Lander at IU in 2021-22.  It is difficult to recall a time when Indiana had more depth at the point guard position.  Real depth, that is, with three guys who can play at this level. Lander may have…

Anunoby’s previous career-high scoring total was 32, set during the…

Yes, it undoubtedly stings to lose out on a rising talent like Noah Clowney.  The 6-foot-10 South Carolina based forward announced his commitment to Alabama on Monday afternoon.  Long, athletic and versatile, Clowney looked like a good fit for IU’s style of play and his size and skillset the right final piece to the class of 2022 puzzle for the Hoosiers. Clowney was IU’s final priority recruiting target in the class of 2022.  The Hoosiers have two guards and a hybrid forward currently committed when it…
