IU Coach Kevin Wilson will introduce new staff members and new players to fans today during a program at the Henke Hall of Champions at Memorial Stadium.
Remind me — who exactly is in the Big East now?
I present my dream conference alignment, one with a renewed focus on geography and tradition. I fully recognize that this could never happen. The administrators and higher-ups with one hand always on their pocketbooks would never allow for something that would so concentrate the television markets
Offensive Line Coach Greg Frey has been known to set 11 alarms for himself on National Signing Day. Now that it has come and gone, he can sleep in.
As National Signing Day came to a close Wednesday, folks around the country unleashed a large sigh of relief.
Everyone has his or her own opinion about how recruiting classes stack up against each other, who will emerge as stars and what the future has in store for these teams. Here’s my take on this year’s recruiting classes in the Big Ten:
IDS sports editor and football beat writer Alex McCarthy and national sports columnist Max McCombs are discussing National Signing Day on a Hoosier Hype live chat. Join the conversation.
With recruiting going on at every corner of the country, the sheer volume of updates can be daunting. Both IU media and national media will be present today to help college football fanatics with coverage lasting from before sunrise to long after the sun has set.
At the beginning of the school year, this day looked like it could have been one of the best signing days for IU in recent memory. We were supposed to have the No. 1 pro-style high-school quarterback, Gunner Kiel, in our recruiting class. As most people probably now know, that is not happening.
After vacillating between IU and Mississippi State since his Jan. 13 visit to Bloomington, offensive tackle Dimitric Camiel made his decision Monday.
Perhaps the hardest thing to stomach about the death of one of the greatest coaches in American sports history is that we could all see it coming.
When Jon Fabris arrived at his desk Friday as the new defensive ends coach, it was empty. By midday Sunday, he said he couldn’t even see his desk through all the paperwork covering it.
Even though he missed a flight and spent unnecessary hours in the Atlanta airport, offensive tackle recruit Dimitric Camiel enjoyed his first visit to IU last weekend.
As 2011 came to an end, the IU football team lost one of its co-offensive coordinators when Rod Smith left to coach at Arizona. On Jan. 3, IU Coach Kevin Wilson named Seth Littrell, coincidentally the former co-offensive coordinator at Arizona, to the post of offensive coordinator.
Five players committed to IU since Dec. 11, all of whom will line up on the defensive side of the ball when the 2012 season starts. Four are from junior colleges, and one, defensive tackle Ralphael Green, is from Sam Houston High School in San Antonio, Texas.
One week after IU Coach Kevin Wilson’s inaugural season came to an end, eight players who might be involved in Wilson’s second season visited Bloomington.
What do Eric Gordon, Tom Pritchard and Cody Zeller have in common? All three were IU’s leading scorers as freshmen after their first seven games.
It is perhaps fitting that the inaugural Dungy-Thompson Humanitarian Award, named in part after a former IU running back, has been awarded to another former Hoosier running back.
One of those was Indiana Coach Kevin Wilson. After a 1-11 season, Wilson is no longer the rookie, nor is he one of the newest faces to the conference.
Statistically, the scales were reversed on offense in 2011. While IU’s leading passer, rusher and receiver were all juniors or seniors in 2010, the leading passer, rusher and receiver were underclassmen in 2011.
