Indiana is still looking for a complete game. After Sunday’s loss to Michigan, IU head coach Archie Miller indicated that a lack of toughness at the start of games was the culprit for the Hoosiers repeatedly finding themselves playing from behind. This time it was Indiana that ran out to the early lead, but the Hoosiers could not sustain it. As a result, IU is on its first losing streak of the season. Although they suffered their fourth road loss in five tries on the season, Indiana did get some good news as freshman point guard Rob Phinisee returned from…

Familiar faces returned to the IU lineup, but the story on the road remained the same. The rigors of Big Ten play are here. Indiana seemed to get an early boost from the return of freshman point guard Rob Phinisee and junior big man De’Ron Davis, but that energy quickly dissipated and IU fell to 1-4 in true road games. Indiana finds itself on its first losing streak of the season as the Hoosiers gave away an early lead at Maryland on Friday night. Despite a 28 point game from freshman Romeo Langford, the Hoosiers could never recover after falling…
Indiana goes back out on the road for a Friday evening tilt with the Maryland Terrapins. The Hoosiers are off to a slow start in true road tests, going 1-3 on the season. IU will catch a bit of a break with this one, as the Maryland students do not return to campus for classes until Monday. Nevertheless, the XFinity Center is a solid home venue that will provide a major challenge for the Hoosiers. Maryland has won four games in a row, including a rather surprising 82-67 road win against Minnesota in their last outing on Tuesday. Indiana, on…
BREAKING UPDATE (1/11, 6:15 p.m.) — Indiana Freshman point guard Rob Phinisee has been cleared to play in tonight’s game against Maryland according to multiple reports.

The top choice of many Hoosier fans may be off the board. Based on a report by Pittsburgh Sports Now, Indiana University alum and former offensive coordinator Matt Canada passed on an opportunity to return to that post in Bloomington. In a story on the possibility that Canada might return to Pittsburgh, where he was also previously an offensive coordinator, Mike Vukovcan relayed this as it relates to Canada returning to IU — “This same source told PSN that Canada has turned down an opportunity to become the offensive coordinator at his alma mater, Indiana. Apparently, Canada wasn’t comfortable with…

You just conduct some interviews, extend your offer, and voila, you have a new offensive coordinator. Right? Not so fast my friend. If only this decision, that will likely also decide the fate of Tom Allen’s own job, was so simple. The reality? It is a tangled web that will make your head hurt if you let it. Kliff Kingsbury is the new head coach of the Arizona Cardinals. He was briefly the new offensive coordinator at USC. Now the Trojans are back in the market for a playcaller. Kingsbury, by the way, has gone from fired college head coach,…
Archie Miller identified the problem. Indiana needs to be tougher. But identifying the issue is only half of the battle. The issue isn’t specific to Indiana’s 2018-19 team. Indiana State and Fort Wayne ring a bell? To be sure, things are different this year. Despite a rash of injuries, IU is more talented than last year’s team. The Hoosiers also have players with a year under their belts in Archie Miller’s system. That’s why slow starts haven’t always led to being run out of the gym like they did at times last year. No, this IU team has the talent…
