Former IU basketball star center Cody Zeller was inducted into the IU Athletics Hall of Fame over the weekend.
The 7-footer had two highly productive seasons in Bloomington from 2011-13, and the Hoosiers were 56-16 during his two years in an IU uniform.
During his debut season in 2011-12, Zeller earned Big Ten Freshman of the Year honors after leading IU in scoring (15.6) and rebounding (6.6) and helping IU to a 27-9 record. IU also earned its first NCAA Tourney invitation in four years and advanced to the Sweet 16 for the first time in a decade.
Zeller’s follow-up performance as a sophomore was even better. He earned second-team All-America honors, averaged team-bests of 16.5 points and 8.0 rebounds and helped lead IU to its first Big Ten title in 11 years, its first No. 1 seed in the NCAA Tournament in 20 years, and a second-straight Sweet 16 appearance.
