Make that three in two days. Indiana forward Race Thompson has entered the transfer portal according to multiple reports, becoming the third IU player to make that decision already this week in the wake of the school’s decision to fire Archie Miller. The 6-foot-8 Thompson averaged 9.1 points and 6.2 rebounds in 2020-21, both career highs. He added 1.4 assists, 1.3 blocks and 1 steal per game. Thompson started all 27 games, the first starts of his career, and averaged 28.2 minutes per contest. The Minnesota native arrived in Bloomington in 2017 and took a redshirt season. He lost most…
For the second time in as many days, an IU basketball shooting guard has entered the transfer portal. Redshirt junior Parker Stewart is the latest member of the Indiana backcourt to test the waters for other opportunities as the Hoosiers go through a head coach change. Stewart told Jeff Goodman of Stadium he will continue to consider Indiana as an option. “Will still consider Indiana depending on the coach, but looking for spot to play this year,” Goodman wrote on Twitter after conversing with Stewart. The 6-foot-5 Stewart announced his transfer from Tennessee Martin to Indiana in December and never…

March is when college basketball coaches distinguish themselves, but there is probably a reasonable line of thinking that says a coach shouldn’t be identified as a serious candidate based on one good run in the NCAA Tournament. So with that dichotomy in mind, let’s take a look at some under or off the radar names who may or may not have coached their way into the IU basketball conversation — but have clearly become a name to watch in the broader national sense. History will show that these were some of the up-and-coming or otherwise hot names in the business…

We are one week into the search for Indiana’s next head basketball coach. Any idea that AD Scott Dolson fired Archie Miller as part of a pre-established plan that would be executed in a matter of days with laser precision has fallen by the wayside. Instead, to this point we have learned more about who isn’t taking the job than who is. While perhaps disappointing to some, none of this is particularly noteworthy or unusual in the first week of a search. The early names still on the board generating the most buzz are currently out of college coaching. Of…
The noise has been loud each and every time Indiana has had a vacancy at the head coach position since Bob Knight left. “Hire an Indiana guy!” Never has there been an obvious choice in that regard, someone who has had elite success at the college level like Roy Williams at Kansas before he went to North Carolina. The lack of a clear cut alumnus candidate has always made this an incredibly divisive topic for Indiana fans. In a strange twist, it seems only a former IU fan, Brad Stevens, could truly unite this fan base, something that became clear…
