No. 9 Indiana put up a fight, but 28 unanswered points by the Buckeyes were too much to overcome. IU rallied from a 35-7 deficit and twice had the ball with a chance to tie the game late in the fourth quarter after its defense stopped Ohio State. But despite a big offensive day, Indiana struggled to move the ball on those two late drives and came up short, 42-35 in Columbus. Head coach Tom Allen was unhappy with the outcome, but pleased that his team didn’t quit. “This team has a lot of fight. They have a lot of…

The 2020-21 Indiana University men’s basketball season is right around the corner. To help get you ready, The Daily Hoosier is profiling every scholarship player on the IU roster. Indiana’s season is expected to begin on Nov. 25. We’ve yet to see point guard Rob Phinisee put it all together. While that is generally true of any player coming into their junior season, Phinisee’s case has been unique. A seemingly never ending run of bad luck with physical ailments have made his magical 2018 game-winner against Butler seem like a lifetime ago. But Phinisee always projected as someone that would…

Quarterback Michael Penix, Jr.’s dramatic reach for the pylon against Penn State sent the Indiana program into a bit of a frenzy. Last second signature wins will do that. But IU’s too unbelievable even for a Hollywood script win over the Nittany Lions was more than just a surreal triumph on the football field. It was the first IU Athletic competition of any kind in more than seven months, the third iteration of the schedule, and a season that was preceded by starts and stops at each of spring practice, summer workouts and fall camp. Off the field, things were…
