Indiana quarterback Jack Tuttle delivered a perfect throw in the back of the end zone to tight end Peyton Hendershot to cap off the Hoosiers first drive and tie No. 5 Ohio State 7-7 in the first quarter. When Tuttle returned to the game IU was down 30-7 in the second quarter. Tuttle was hit by multiple Buckeyes on the scoring throw and he was down on the field for around a minute before he walked off gingerly under his own power. With Tuttle initially unable to return, third-string true freshman Donaven McCulley filled in, and eventually redshirt sophomore Grant…

If there is a let up on the horizon on Indiana’s schedule, it doesn’t arrive on Saturday. After an early season hiccup against Oregon, Ohio State appears to have returned to its typical dominant form, and the Buckeyes have the look of a team that can win the Big Ten and return to the College Football Playoff. Meanwhile, fueled by a mistake-prone and end zone averse offense, Indiana looks nothing like the 2020 darling that nearly caught OSU from behind in Columbus last year. It will be the Hoosiers and Buckeyes under the lights at Memorial Stadium for a primetime…

At some point not long ago the basketball world started to figure it out. It turns out, you don’t defend, shoot or rebound with your head, and as a result, how far you can reach with your hands is more important than how tall you measure head to toe. Over the last decade NBA and college teams began measuring wingspan as an essential component of their evaluation of draft and recruiting prospects. “It’s legit. It’s much more important than your height,” Golden State Warriors head coach Steve Kerr said a few years ago in an AP report. … “I’m a…
Although he was intrigued, class of 2023 guard Jakai Newton didn’t know much about Indiana before his official visit to Bloomington last weekend. Before he left, he had already decided to become IU’s first commit in the high school junior class. And just a few days after concluding that official visit, Newton announced on Friday afternoon he has verbally committed to IU. “I really had my mind made up during the visit,” Newton told The Daily Hoosier on Tuesday evening. “My parents said we should go home and talk about it, and we’re ready now.” It has been a whirlwind…
While many of the IU basketball recruiting prospects who attended Hoosier Hysteria were more locally-based, Jacob Theodosiou trekked a long way to get down to Bloomington for the event. Why did he want to make the nearly six hour journey from Western Reserve Academy in northern Ohio? The class of 2024 guard already has good vibes with Indiana, but more important, he sees a playing style that is a potential good fit. “Indiana was the first school that ever reached out to me, so they hold a soft spot in my heart for that for sure,” Theodosiou told The Daily…
Indiana’s secondary held up without starting cornerbacks Tiawan Mullen and Reese Taylor last weekend against Michigan State, but the test gets even more difficult on Saturday night. Few if any teams in America can put three receivers on the field as talented as Ohio State’s trio. Garrett Wilson (31 reception, 546 yards, 6 TDs), Chris Olave (30 receptions, 494 yards, 7 TDs), and Jaxon Smith-Njigba (23 receptions, 452 yards, 3 TDs) are a nightmare for opposing defenses, and a big reason why the Buckeyes are averaging 48.5 points per game through the first half of the season. “They’re just so…
