IUFB 2026 Spring Depth Chart Preview: Defensive Tackle
I’m working under the assumption that IUFB is probably done in the portal and we’re nearly set with the current roster. I use this space to talk about the depth chart as I see it at this moment in time. Depth charts are extremely fluid, especially when practice starts so these are subject to change […]
Indiana Defensive Lineman Tyrique Tucker Will Return in 2026
The Indiana Hoosiers will return an important piece of the defensive line when Tyrique Tucker announced on X that he will return to the Hoosiers in 2026.

While the luster may be off the matchup, there is still going to be a collision of NFL talent on the field.
The Reactionary Take: IUFB vs UCLA
Not much more you can say about what Indiana is doing to most of it’s opponents.
