Indiana men’s basketball listed as a top NIL spender ahead of 2026-27 season
It’s no secret that Indiana Athletics has a pretty solid NIL operation going for itself. The Hoosiers aren’t one of the top spenders in just about any sport but you don’t win a national championship in football with chump change.

Indiana football: Breaking down Michigan’s quarterback quandary
Indiana football heads to Michigan on Saturday for a matchup with a Wolverines team that’s off to a shaky start to Kyle Whittingham’s tenure as head coach. In fact, it could look a lot worse if their first loss to Western Michigan was recorded as such – for now it’s a win by virtue of […]

Indiana football’s coming road matchup at Michigan may have gotten a bit clearer this week.

Indiana football must solve running game woes to reach its goals this season
