The Hoosiers are yet again in the same position they have been in the past couple of years, out of bowl contention. For the Hoosier Huddle staff, here’s what we’d want to see for the Hoosier program as it comes to another close.
Redshirt Freshman Omar Cooper Makes His Mark
Written by: TJ Inman
The 2022 season was a highly-frustrating one for Indiana football coaches, fans and players. Among the frustrated individuals was surely Omar Cooper. The former four-star recruit was a freshman that was not seeing the field for an offense that was struggling mightily with quarterback Connor Bazelak and a lackluster offensive line.

The Hoosiers special teams unit could be one of the best in the Big Ten in 2023 if coordinator Kasey Teegardin can put all the pieces together. The Hoosiers have some potentially great pieces at every position of this phase of the game headlined by All-American kick returner Jaylin Lucas.

Heading into the 2022 season there were two really intriguing true freshman wide receivers that could have been labeled as sleeper picks to be a breakout star for the offense. However, that never materialized as both Omar Cooper and Kamryn Perry retained their redshirt seasons and played a combined five games with zero catches. The Hoosiers are hoping that they can have the break out seasons that fans envisioned in 2023.

2022 IUFB Positional Previews: Special Teams
Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle)
For teams like Indiana who are trying to spring upsets or get back on track special teams plays a vital role. Just ask Scott Frost at Nebraska who onsides kicked his way onto a seat hotter than the sun in Week 0.
Last season, IU was either great or terrible in the special teams department. Placekicker Charles Campbell was one of the best kickers in the Big Ten early on but, like the rest of the team, tanked in the second half. IU had little-to-no return game after D.J. Matthews and Reese Taylor got injured and Punter James Evans was very inconsistent.

State of the Room- IUFB Wide Receivers
Written by Sammy Jacobs (@Hoosier_Huddle
The wide receiver group that the Hoosiers went into 2021 with was supposed to be one of the best in the conference, but by the end of the year it was almost unrecognizable. This unit was a major disappointment in a season where there were plenty of disappointments. After losing D.J. Matthews for the season during the Western Kentucky game, this unit disappeared. However, the 2022 wide receiver room will look vastly different for the Hoosiers.
