Hoosiers step up intensity a notch against Wildcats

·

Since the No.18 Hoosiers (12-3, 2-1 Big Ten) lost to Ohio State on Saturday, coach Mike Davis spent much of the week challenging his team to show the intensity that it seemed to have misplaced over the winter break. He questioned the team's passion and stated that they were faltering due to a lack of leadership.

Hoosiers show heart in win

·

Mike Davis may hate Kentucky, but he should appreciate when Northwestern comes to town. Because in each of the five times the IU men's basketball coach faced the Wildcats, he has walked away with a victory. Wednesday night was no exception, as the No. 18 Hoosiers routed Northwestern, 71-57. The team extended its winning streak against the Wildcats to 29 in Assembly Hall, and improved its record to 12-3, 2-1 in the Big Ten. Northwestern's record falls to 8-6, 0-3.

IU hosts Wildcats

·

After the No.18 Hoosiers (11-3, 1-1 Big Ten) dropped their third loss in six games against Ohio State Saturday night, the frustration of the team was obvious. IU got off to one of its best starts in recent memory this season with an 8-0 record and No. 6 ranking headed into winter break. But since then the offense has sputtered and coach Mike Davis, as well as other members of the team, have questioned the squad's passion. "You think about this game (and) you look at the mistakes we made in this game and they're mistakes we've been making all year long," senior guard Kyle Hornsby said after losing to OSU. "I don't know what's different about this game that's going to make us learn from them but hopefully we will and we'll come out and do better in the next few games."

McNeely's athletics plan put on hold

Athletics officials at Indiana University say they will re-evaluate plans for a $40 million student-athlete center that was a top priority for the school's former athletics director. Terry Clapacs, interim athletics director said the idea behind the plan is valid: IU needs more space for athletics services. But Clapacs said he wants to take another look at whether some services should have a higher priority than others and whether the space should be added at once or in phases.

Hoosiers' defensive intensity leads to win

·

Playing defense might have been a struggle for the women's basketball team going into this season, but Sunday's 54-50 victory over a ranked Ohio State team showed the Hoosier defense has already come a long way.
