The Hoosiers picked up Hanna this past off-season after spending the past seasons at West Texas A&M. At West Texas, Hanna played the Left Tackle position where his team averaged a bit less than 430 yards of offense per game.

On March 31st Hanna announced that he entered the transfer portal and the same day announced that he received an offer from IU. That said, the Hoosiers coaching staff must’ve had their eye on the big offensive tackle for a while. Hanan chose the Hoosiers over Rice, Louisiana Tech, and UNLV.

Hanna was not recruited out of high school ending up in a powerful D2 school and him transferring to the Hoosiers must’ve been a been a dream of his to play Division 1 football. Expect Hanna to be a key part of the line with his experience and physicality even if he does not see the field.
