2020 Position Preview – Offensive Line: Can the Hoosiers Line Push Through to the Next Level in 2020?

Written by Andrew Walker

Historically, the offensive line for the Hoosiers have been… hit or miss depending on the season. Some great, some good, some really bad. That’s just how the cookie crumbles. When it comes to 2020’s offensive line, there still remains some questions. Partially due to the ongoing COVID-19 global pandemic, the public hasn’t been able to see exactly what’s going on at fall camp. Usually, the media and therefore the public would have a pretty good idea of what’s going to be the starting lineup. This year is slightly different. Sure, the five, six, seven best offensive linemen are going to get a majority of the minutes. That’s a given.

Where Indiana's Offensive Line Stands After the Departure of Coy Cronk

Where Indiana's Offensive Line Stands After the Departure of Coy Cronk

Written by: TJ Inman (@TJHoosierHuddle)

The Indiana Hoosiers entered the 2019 season expecting to be without left tackle Coy Cronk when they took the field in 2020. The senior had started more than 30 games for the Hoosiers and was hoping to wrap up his career by helping the Hoosiers to a bowl berth.

While there was a period of time when it appeared IU would have the luxury of moving Coy Cronk to guard and starting him on the interior of the line, the staff will now need to piece together a unit that still has some returning talent and lots of intriguing pieces to plug into place.

After a heartbreaking and supremely frustrating end to the 2019 season, fans of the Indiana Hoosiers could be forgiven for not wanting to think about college football for a few months. However, it is important to put the loss in context and realize the season was still an unqualified success and Tom Allen’s program still has a lot to look forward as we turn attention to the future of the program. Indiana won eight games in the regular season and had a winning record in the Big Ten for the first time since 1993. They return most of the pieces from this season and appear to have a schedule conducive to building on the momentum they earned this past season.
