Indiana men’s basketball will be one of eight teams in the 2024 Battle 4 Atlantis held in Nassau, Bahamas, college basketball insider Jon Rothstein reported Tuesday. It will be the first time in program history the Hoosiers compete in the Thanksgiving week tournament.
Indiana will join the University of Arizona, Creighton University, Davidson College, Gonzaga University, the University of Louisville, Oklahoma University and West Virginia University in the field, per Rothstein. No bracket has been set for the teams.
While the Hoosiers have never competed in Nassau since the tournament’s birth in 2011, they have played in its counterpart — the Maui Jim Maui Invitational — on several occasions. Indiana has an 11-8 all-time record in the Maui Invitational — which is also held during what is known as college basketball’s “Feast Week” — most recently going 2-1 in 2020.
This is the first piece of scheduling news for Indiana’s 2024-25 season. Indiana is two months away from making its first appearance for the 2023-24 season, holding its Hoosier Hysteria event Oct. 20 in Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall.
