They say if you love something you have to set it free.  In the spring of 2015, Zach McRoberts set the game of basketball free after his freshman year playing for the Vermont Catamounts.  The former Carmel High School standout and Indiana High School All-Star needed a break. McRoberts left Vermont, enrolled at IU, and became an Econ major.  He has said that he just decided that he wanted to enjoy life as a student without the distractions of basketball.  Yep, that’s what he said.  It may have even been what he really thought at the time.  But after a…

It was a 28 point win for IU, but when considering the caliber of the opponent and the Hoosiers’ level of play in the first half there wasn’t much to feel good about.  Indiana didn’t look sharp at all in the first half.  Was it rust from a long break or just another enigmatic performance from this edition of the Hoosiers?  Whatever it was, it won’t work starting next week.  Ready or not, it is time to resume Big Ten basketball, and the Hoosiers will start out with a challenging back to back on the road at Wisconsin and Minnesota…

Romeo Langford missed Thursday’s game against Evansville Central with a finger injury.  The math for him to catch IU great Damon Bailey is very challenging now.  Langford would need New Albany to advance to the state championship game and he would have to average 40 points a game along the way. While catching Bailey now seems highly unlikely, we’ll continue to monitor his progress along the way to see where he ends up.  Bailey is the current all-time scoring leader at 3,134 points.  Langford appears likely to pass a couple other IU greats soon:  Alan Henderson and James Blackmon, Jr.…

GAME NOTES:  The Indiana Hoosiers (7-6) conclude the pre-conference portion of their schedule on Friday night as they host the Youngstown State Penguins (2-10) at Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall in Bloomington.  Tip-off is set for 8:00 PM.  The game will be broadcast on BTN with Brandon Gaudin & Bob Wentzel on the call.  This will be the first ever game between the two programs.  Youngstown State will most likely be the lowest ranked team the Hoosiers face all season in the KenPom rankings, sitting at 330th out of 351 teams nationally.  KenPom has IU as a 21 point favorite with…

Archie Miller gave a brief press conference with the media coming off of a holiday break and looking forward to Youngstown State and Big Ten play.  Highlights of his comments and the full video are below: The team came back fresh coming out of the break. It was good to get in multiple practices.  Anticipates a lot less practice time once the Big Ten grind begins. Most of practice time was spent on self-improvement rather than Youngstown State/Wisconsin. Looking to push the staff and players to compete and be driven and goal oriented. Justin Smith and Al Durham were highlighted…
