Indiana head coach Tom Allen announced on Wednesday that the Indiana Football Spring Game will “make an adjustment here at the end where we are going to be canceling our spring game in terms of that format. We are going to have a final scrimmage on the 10th that will allow us to maximize our days, maximize our preparation.”

The Hoosiers his a bump in the road last week with having a practice being canceled due to COVID concerns, so it is really important that Allen and his staff maximize what they have left of spring practice.

“You go through and look at where you're at. You get 15 days and to me those days are critical. You look at where you are with players and what you're trying to accomplish.” Allen explained. “I feel like in order for us to maximize those, we had a little bit of a minor setback last week with COVID, and so just being able to maximize our guys in preparation for what comes next which is our end of April workouts and then getting into our summer months. I just wanted to make sure every day that we had, we could maximize to the fullest and I believe that's the best way for us to do that.”

It was not mentioned if the Hoosiers would open up April 10th to the public, but with the restrictions around spring sports and the Little 500, it would be shocking if IU opened up for that scrimmage.
