Indiana Hoosiers All-Decade Team (2010-2019)

Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)

As the decade closes out and we ring in a new year in just a few hours, I have put together my All-Decade team for the Indiana Hoosiers. This is just my opinion and I encourage discussion. The 2010’s were an up and down time for the Hoosiers as three head coaches spent time leading IUFB. The Hoosiers have had success though and some may call it the most successful decade since the 1980’s or 1990’s for the Hoosier football program. Indiana’s team won 49 games over the ten years, including six wins against Purdue (the first winning decade against the Boilermakers since the 1940’s) and qualified for three bowl games.

Eight Former Hoosiers Will Participate at IU's Pro Day on March 31st

Written By Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)

Eight former Hoosiers will be on hand in Bloomington to take part in Indiana Football's Pro Day on March 31st. Pro Day is an opportunity for players who were not invited to the NFL Combine to show their talents to NFL scouts and a chance for those who did participate in the combine to improve upon their performances. The only Hoosiers to do drills at the combine this year were offensive lineman Dan Feeney and running back Devine Redding. The six other former IU players who will be working out Friday are OL Dimitric Camiel, DL Ralph Green III, WR Ricky Jones, WR Mitchell Paige, RB/LB Clyde Newtown, and LB Marcus Oliver.

Game Day Primer: Ball State Cardinals at Indiana Hoosiers

Game Day Primer: Ball State Cardinals at Indiana Hoosiers

Written By T.J. Inman (@TJHoosierHuddle)

What: Ball State Cardinals at Indiana Hoosiers

When: Saturday, September 10 at 4:00 PM

Where: Memorial Stadium in Bloomington, Indiana

How to Watch: The game will be broadcast on ESPNews and you can listen to the radio broadcast on the IU Radio Network.

What’s at Stake: The Ball State Cardinals have won three straight contests against the Indiana Hoosiers and they defeated Kevin Wilson in each of his first two seasons in charge in Bloomington. An IU victory, particularly a dominant one, would validate just how much progress has been made under Kevin Wilson. In addition, this game is certainly one IU fans are counting on as a “W” as the Hoosiers continue their quest to return to a bowl game for the second straight season. Following this contest, the Hoosiers have a bye-week. Those fourteen days between games would be much more enjoyable at 2-0 than they would be at 1-1.

Week One Matchup to Watch: IU's Defensive Line Vs. FIU's O-Line

Written By Alex Compton

Many of you were probably expecting a one-on-one matchup or something like Richard Lagow vs. the FIU defense in his first collegiate start. However, I am a big believer that most games between solid teams are won in the trenches, and this one should be no different. Opening your season on the road with a team that gave you a good test the season prior is a tough task for any program, but especially for one like Indiana that has historically struggled away from Bloomington.

2016 Defensive Line Preview: Can The Hoosiers Be Disruptive Enough Upfront?

New defensive scheme? Check. New defensive line coach? Check. New defensive line starters? Check. Plenty has changed since the Hoosiers gave up 44 points to Duke in the Pinstripe Bowl, a game that was gift-wrapped and delivered a day after Christmas to the Blue Devils. Well, if Indiana is to avoid a similar set of events in 2016, change is necessary, but change in itself is not nearly enough. There has to be a greater level of execution, which starts upfront, in the trenches at the point of attack.
