Jeff Goodman, a basketball analyst at Stadium, has reported that the Indiana University men’s basketball team will play a secret scrimmage on October 28th at Bankers Life Fieldhouse in Indianapolis against Loyola Chicago. The Ramblers and Sister Jean were the darlings of the 2018 NCAA Tournament, shocking the country with a trip to the Final Four as a No. 11 seed. So what is a secret scrimmage? Basically, it is a preseason controlled matchup in which statistics aren’t supposed to be revealed and fans and media aren’t allowed to be present.  We’re still awaiting word whether an exception will be…

We’ve kicked things off here at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall. We heard rumors of a high-tech show — and a high-tech show it is. https://twitter.com/daily_hoosier/status/1046130286386446338 IU women’s head coach Teri Moren takes the microphone.

For the fifth game in a row, Indiana allowed its opponent to get out to an early lead on Saturday.  For the fourth time this season, the Hoosiers responded quickly and decisively and appeared to be ready to cruise to a fourth win. This time the Hoosiers had to hang on to a late Rutgers’ response of their own, due in part to IU turnovers and questionable decision making in the fourth quarter.  Despite the shaky finish, the Hoosiers earned a Big Ten road victory and ran their record to 4-1 for the first time since 2015. If Rutgers (1-4)…

That photo may or may not be what Rutgers’ HighPoint Solutions Stadium looks like at kickoff tomorrow. Make no mistake about it — the Rutgers football program is in complete disarray.  After losing their last three games by an average score of 50-10, the Scarlet Knights are all questions, and no answers. But make no mistake about it — this is a must win football game for Indiana.  A victory means the Hoosiers move to 4-1 for the first time since 2015.  A loss puts them right there in the conversation with Rutgers as a team spiraling out of control.…

This weekend is kind of a big deal in Bloomington, with not one but two in-state class of 2019 five star forwards on campus in connection with Hoosier Hysteria. Fort Wayne, Indiana native Keion Brooks, Jr. will join his AAU teammate and good friend Trayce Jackson-Davis at IU for an official visit. https://twitter.com/KeionB_12/status/1045699921524011009 The pair also took an official visit together to UCLA, and many believe that they will choose to play together in college.  While Jackson-Davis is more of a power forward, Brooks is a natural wing.  Their games complement each other on the floor. Brooks, Jr. is another…

It is a name that needs no introduction at this point.  Hoosier fans have known about him since he was a freshman at Center Grove High School.  Some affectionately refer to him simply as “TJD”. In connection with this weekend’s Hoosier Hysteria, Greenwood, Indiana native Trayce Jackson-Davis is in Bloomington for his official visit. https://twitter.com/TrayceJackson/status/1045418679855443968 Simply put — Indiana needs to win this recruiting battle — and we have yet to find anyone who is predicting that he will go elsewhere.  This is a big weekend for the IU coaching staff to close the deal. The winner of a gold…
