The '''Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball''' team represents [[Indiana University Bloomington]] in [[NCAA Division I]] [[college basketball]] and competes in the [[Big Ten Conference]]. The Hoosiers play at [[Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall]] on the Branch McCracken Court in [[Bloomington, Indiana]] on the [[Indiana University Bloomington]] campus. Indiana has won five [[NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|National Championships]] in men's basketball, ([[1940 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|1940]], [[1953 NCAA basketball tournament|1953]], [[1976 NCAA Division I basketball tournament|1976]], [[1981 NCAA Division I basketball tournament|1981]], [[1987 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|1987]]) – two coming under [[Branch McCracken]] and three under [[Bob Knight]]. Indiana's [[1975–76 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1976 team]] remains the last undefeated NCAA men's basketball champion.

The Hoosiers have 41 NCAA Tournament appearances and 68 victories, 8 Final Four appearances,<ref>[http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ind/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/2011-12/release/release_20120320aaa.pdf Indiana Basketball Game Notes] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304110828/http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ind/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/2011-12/release/release_20120320aaa.pdf |date=2016-03-04 }}, retrieved 20 March 2012.</ref> and 22 Big Ten Conference Championship victories.

==Traditions==

===Candy striped warm-up pants===
During warm-ups, Indiana players wear "candy striped" pants resembling the red and white stripes of a [[candy cane]].<ref name="pants">{{cite web|title=The Tradition of Indiana's Candy Striped Warm Up Pants| date=8 December 2011 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NQ9c4ryle6U| archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211117/NQ9c4ryle6U| archive-date=2021-11-17 | url-status=live|publisher=YouTube|access-date=2 April 2012}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

===Simple game jerseys===
[[File:Indiana-Hoosier-Huddle.jpg|thumb|200px|Players huddle before a game in their iconic candy striped pants]]
The team is widely noted for its simple game jerseys.<ref>{{cite news|last=Rovell|first=Darren|title=The shirt off the players' backs|url=https://www.espn.com/espn/sportsbusiness/news/story?id=1774259|access-date=2 April 2012|newspaper=ESPN|date=4 April 2004}}</ref> When coach [[Mike Davis (basketball coach)|Mike Davis]] succeeded [[Bob Knight]], he suggested adding names to the jerseys. However, the Hoosiers' minimalist look had become such a part of the program's brand that the proposal was dropped after considerable backlash from fans.<ref>{{cite news|last=Zillgitt|first=Jeff|title='Hoosiers 2' in the making|url=https://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/basketball/men/02tourney/2002-04-01-notebook-zillgitt.htm|access-date=2 April 2012|newspaper=USA Today|date=1 April 2002|archive-date=September 10, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120910222857/http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/basketball/men/02tourney/2002-04-01-notebook-zillgitt.htm|url-status=live}}</ref> Despite the long tradition behind the jerseys, they have undergone some slight changes over the years.

==History==

===Early years (1900–1924)===
[[File:1900-01-Indiana-Hoosiers.jpg|thumb|230px|The first Indiana basketball team (1900–01)]]
Indiana fielded its first men's basketball team in the [[1900–01 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1900–01 season]], posting a 1–4 ledger under coach [[James H. Horne]]. Their first game was in Indianapolis, where the Hoosiers lost to [[Butler Bulldogs men's basketball|Butler]] 20–17. Indiana's first victory was a 26–17 win over [[Wabash College]] that same year.<ref name="History">{{cite web | url=http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ind/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/0607-mg-142-167history.pdf | title=Indiana University basketball history | work=iuhoosiers.com | access-date=30 March 2008 | archive-date=11 April 2016 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160411101958/http://grfx.cstv.com/photos/schools/ind/sports/m-baskbl/auto_pdf/0607-mg-142-167history.pdf | url-status=dead }}</ref>

The Indiana Hoosiers began playing in the [[Men's Gymnasium (Indiana University)|Men's Gymnasium]] in 1917. Due to complaints from spectators seated behind the backboards about poor visibility, the arena installed glass backboards a few years later. These glass backboards may have been the first to be used in the United States.<ref name="Hiner2">{{cite book|last=Hiner|first=Jason|title=Indiana University Basketball Encyclopedia|url=https://archive.org/details/indianauniversit0000hine|url-access=registration|year=2005|publisher=Sports Publishing|location=United States|isbn=1-58261-655-8|page=[https://archive.org/details/indianauniversit0000hine/page/447 447]}}</ref>

===Everett Dean era (1924–1938)===
In 1924, Indiana alumnus [[Everett Dean]] became head coach. The Hoosiers won their first [[Big Ten Conference]] title in 1926, defeating [[Wisconsin Badgers men's basketball|Wisconsin]] 35–20, and won again in 1928 and 1936.<ref name="History"/>

===Branch McCracken era (1938–1965)===
When Dean left for Stanford, the popular selection to succeed him was [[Branch McCracken]].<ref name="Hammel">{{cite news|first=Bob|last=Hammel|title=1940 Championship Team|url=http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/sports/hh/1940/|work=heraldtimesonline.com|date=2006-03-01|access-date=2008-03-30|archive-date=November 20, 2008|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20081120192459/http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/sports/hh/1940/|url-status=live}}</ref> McCracken was another young alumnus and former player under Everett Dean.<ref name="Hammel"/>

McCracken's first IU team was led by All-American [[Ernie Andres]], later a McCracken basketball assistant.<ref name="History"/> In McCracken's first year, the team finished 17–3, splitting games with both Purdue and eventual NCAA runner-up Ohio State.<ref name="History"/> The following year the [[1939–40 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1939–40 NCAA title team]], led by All-American [[Marvin Huffman]], would take Indiana to unprecedented success: an NCAA title and a record (at the time) 20 wins.<ref name="Hammel"/> The 20–3 record by that team would not be bested for another 13 years until broken again by Indiana.<ref name="Hammel"/> At their home court at [[Wildermuth Intramural Center|The Fieldhouse]], Indiana saw six perfect seasons including a 24-game unbeaten home winning streak from 1938 to 1941.
[[File:1953_Indiana_Hoosiers_basketball.jpg|right|thumb|230px|The 1952–53 National champion Indiana Hoosiers]]In 1960 the [[Indiana Hoosiers football]] program was hit with devastating NCAA sanctions that impacted every varsity sport at the school, including basketball.<ref name="1960violations">{{cite news|last=Spegele |first=Brian |title=History repeats itself: Violations reminiscent of 1960 scandal |url=http://www.idsnews.com/news/NewStoryPrint.aspx?id=59444 |access-date=9 April 2012 |newspaper=Indiana Daily Student |date=22 February 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20101211184502/http://www.idsnews.com/news/NewStoryPrint.aspx?id=59444 |archive-date=11 December 2010 }}</ref> The violations only occurred within the football program.<ref name="1960violations"/> Nevertheless, McCracken did manage to successfully recruit twins [[Dick Van Arsdale]] and [[Tom Van Arsdale]], both of whom would earn All-America honors in 1965.

McCracken ultimately coached IU for 23 years, amassing 364 wins and 210 Big Ten wins.<ref name="History"/> His teams also won four regular season Big Ten titles and went to the NCAA tournament four times, winning two national titles.<ref name="History"/> He was inducted into the National Basketball Hall of Fame and the court now at [[Assembly Hall (Bloomington)|Assembly Hall]] is named in his honor.

===Lou Watson era (1965–1971)===
Sandwiched between two iconic coaches in [[Branch McCracken]] and [[Bob Knight]], McCracken's longtime assistant and former lead scorer Lou Watson coached Indiana from 1965 through 1971, with a leave of absence in 1970 where [[Jerry Oliver]] stepped in as acting head coach. The 1966–67 team, which won a Big Ten championship, was known as the "Cardiac Kids" because of their many heart-stopping finishes.

===Bob Knight era (1971–2000)===
[[File:1976 Indiana Hoosiers nets.jpg|left|thumb|230px|All-American Scott May cuts down the nets after winning the 1976 NCAA championship.]]
In [[1972–73 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1972–73]], [[Bob Knight]]'s second year as coach, Indiana won the Big Ten championship and reached the Final Four, but lost to [[1972–73 UCLA Bruins men's basketball team|UCLA]]. Indiana won the Big Ten championship again in the following season. In the two following seasons, [[1974–75 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1974–75]] and [[1975–76 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1975–76]], the Hoosiers were undefeated in the regular season and won 37-consecutive Big Ten games, including two more Big Ten championships. The [[1974–75 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1974–75]] Hoosiers swept the entire Big Ten by an average of 22.8 points per game. However, in an 83–82 win against [[Purdue Boilermakers men's basketball|Purdue]] they lost consensus All-American forward [[Scott May]] to a broken left arm. With May's injury keeping him to 7 minutes of play, the No. 1 Hoosiers lost to [[1974–75 Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball team|Kentucky]] 92–90 in the [[1975 NCAA Division I basketball tournament|Mideast Regional]]. The Hoosiers were so dominant that four starters – [[Scott May]], [[Steve Green (basketball)|Steve Green]], [[Kent Benson]] and [[Quinn Buckner]] – would make the five-man All-Big Ten team. The following season, [[1975–76 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1975–76]], the Hoosiers went the entire season and [[1976 NCAA Division I basketball tournament|1976 NCAA tournament]] without a single loss, beating [[1975–76 Michigan Wolverines men's basketball team|Michigan]] 86–68 in the title game. Indiana remains the last school to accomplish this feat.<ref>{{cite news|first=Dave |last=Dorr |url=http://www.sportingnews.com/archives/sports2000/trends/150673.html |title=A perfect season |work=sportingnews.com |date=1976-04-10 |access-date=2008-03-28 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20000229072546/http://www.sportingnews.com/archives/sports2000/trends/150673.html |archive-date=2000-02-29 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web | url=http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/sports/hh/1976/ | title=Hoosier Historia | work=heraldtimesonline.com | access-date=28 March 2008 | archive-date=June 6, 2007 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070606115814/http://www.heraldtimesonline.com/sports/hh/1976/ | url-status=live }}</ref>

The [[1985–86 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1985–86]] Hoosiers were profiled in a best-selling book ''[[A Season on the Brink]]''. To write it Knight granted author [[John Feinstein]] almost unprecedented access to the Indiana basketball program, as well as insights into Knight's private life. The following season, in [[1986–87 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|1986–87]], the Hoosiers were led by All-American [[Steve Alford]] and captured a share of the Big Ten title. The team won Indiana's fifth national championship against [[Syracuse Orange men's basketball|Syracuse]] in the [[1987 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|1987 NCAA tournament]] with a game-winning jump shot by [[Keith Smart]] with five seconds of play remaining in the championship game.<ref>{{cite news|first=Rick |last=Weinberg |title=60: Smart's jumper wins NCAA title for Indiana |url=https://www.espn.com/espn/espn25/story?page=moments/60 |work=ESPN |access-date=2008-03-30 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20050516141441/http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/espn25/story?page=moments%2F60 |archive-date=2005-05-16}}</ref> In the 1988–1989 season the Hoosiers were led by All-American [[Jay Edwards (basketball)|Jay Edwards]] and won a Big Ten championship.

Throughout the mid and late 1990s Knight and the Hoosiers continued to experience success with superior play from All-Americans [[Brian Evans (basketball)|Brian Evans]] and [[A. J. Guyton]]. The Hoosiers won a minimum of 19 games and played in the NCAA tournament each year. However, 1993 would be Knight's last conference championship and 1994 would be his last trip to the Sweet Sixteen. Moreover, his aggressive and combative actions and communication often brought as much controversy to the school as success. Allegations of abuse, along with his reputation and a strained relationship with then-University President [[Myles Brand]], resulted in Knight's controversial dismissal in 2000.<ref name="Knight fired as Indiana head coach">{{cite news |first=Andy |last=Katz |title=Knight fired as Indiana head coach |url=http://static.espn.go.com/ncb/news/2000/0908/729705.html |work=[[ESPN]] |access-date=2009-03-09 |archive-date=June 20, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110620211431/http://static.espn.go.com/ncb/news/2000/0908/729705.html |url-status=live }}</ref>

===Mike Davis era (2000–2006)===
Following Bob Knight's tumultuous exit from Indiana, assistant [[Mike Davis (basketball coach)|Mike Davis]] took over as interim head coach in the fall of 2000. In his first season, Davis led a team featuring All-Americans [[Kirk Haston]] and [[Jared Jeffries]] to a 21–13 record. The following year, in the 2001–02 season, Davis was named the permanent coach. That year the Hoosiers captured a share of the Big Ten championship and made an unexpected trip to the [[2002 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|2002 NCAA championship game]]. But after the Hoosiers lost to Maryland in 2002 and failed to make the NCAA tournament in 2004 and 2005 (for the first time since 1985), criticism of Davis grew. Following months of speculation, he announced his resignation in February 2006, saying the basketball program needed to move on with a new coach. He remained with the team for the rest of the 2006 season before leaving.

On March 28, 2006, [[University of Oklahoma|Oklahoma]] head coach [[Kelvin Sampson]] was named coach of the Hoosiers, despite a history of violating NCAA rules and sanctions imposed on him.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://iuhoosiers.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/032906aaa.html | title=Sampson Named Hoosiers' Head Coach | work=iuhoosiers.com | access-date=15 May 2007 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070615065201/http://iuhoosiers.cstv.com/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/032906aaa.html | archive-date=15 June 2007 }}</ref> Sampson fielded competitive teams and scored a major recruiting victory by persuading in-state star [[Eric Gordon]] to sign with Indiana.<ref>{{cite news|first=Jeff|last=Rabjohns | title= Prep star Eric Gordon changes mind, makes move to Hoosiers | url= https://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/mensbasketball/bigten/2006-10-13-indiana-gordon_x.htm | work=usatoday.com |date=2006-10-13  | access-date= 2008-03-30}}</ref> The Hoosiers, with Gordon and forward [[D.J.

However, in October 2007 Sampson was found to have violated rules again, this time by engaging in a 3-way phone conversation with a recruit. Indiana punished Sampson by denying him a previously scheduled $500,000 raise, firing one of his assistant coaches, and taking away one of his scholarships for the 2008–2009 season.<ref>{{cite news |first=Andy |last=Katz |title=Sampson barred from off-campus recruiting |url=https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/news/story?id=2457878 |work=[[ESPN]] |date=2006-05-26 |access-date=2008-03-30 |archive-date=November 30, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241130155644/https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/news/story?id=2457878 |url-status=live }}</ref>

In early February 2008 the NCAA informed Indiana that Sampson had "knowingly violated telephone recruiting restrictions and then lied about it." After launching another internal investigation, Indiana officials announced just 14 days later that Sampson accepted a $750,000 buyout of his contract and resigned as the men's basketball coach.<ref>{{cite news |first=Andy |last=Katz |title=Indiana, Sampson reach $750,000 settlement to part ways |url=https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/news/story?id=3258506 |work=[[ESPN]] |date=2008-02-23 |access-date=2008-03-30 |archive-date=November 30, 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20241130073158/https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/news/story?id=3258506 |url-status=live }}</ref> Former player and assistant coach [[Dan Dakich]] was named interim coach for the remainder of the season. A number of college basketball pundits believed that Sampson's tenure at Indiana had effectively ended once the allegations broke. ''[[Sports Illustrated]]'' college basketball columnist [[Seth Davis]] noted that the NCAA had given Indiana 90 days to respond to the notice of allegations. Indiana officials said their internal investigation would only take a week, leading Davis to believe that they had already decided Sampson was guilty.<ref>{{cite news |first=Seth |last=Davis |author-link=Seth Davis |title=End of a sad saga |url=http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/seth_davis/02/22/kelvin.sampson/index.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080226071343/http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2008/writers/seth_davis/02/22/kelvin.sampson/index.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=February 26, 2008 |publisher=[[Sports Illustrated]] |date=2008-02-22 |access-date=2008-02-23 }}</ref>  ESPN's Mark Schlabach suggested that the only reason Indiana did not fire Sampson right away was because his contract did not allow the school to suspend him immediately.

===Tom Crean era (2008–2017)===
On April 1, 2008, [[Marquette Golden Eagles men's basketball|Marquette]] head coach [[Tom Crean (basketball)|Tom Crean]] was hired as head coach and inherited a thoroughly depleted team.<ref>{{cite web | url=http://sportsline.com/collegebasketball/story/10717204 | title=2008 Coach search | work=cbs.sportsline.com | access-date=28 March 2008 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080325141131/http://www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/story/10717204 | archive-date=25 March 2008 }}</ref> Between Crean's hiring and the start of the [[2008–09 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2008–09 season]], freshman [[Eric Gordon]] opted to leave early for the NBA and star forward [[DJ White]] graduated. Two other players transferred, one player was dismissed from the team and two others previously dismissed by Dakich were not allowed to return.  As a result, Crean began with a roster consisting of two walk-ons who had scored a combined 36 points in their careers.<ref name="Carpenter">{{cite news|last=Carpenter|first=Les|title=Tom Crean pulled Indiana from unthinkable depths to the NCAA tournament in four arduous years|url=http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/news?slug=lc-carpenter_indiana_tom_crean_turnaround_031212|work=Yahoo Sports|access-date=20 March 2012|archive-date=March 29, 2012|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120329063356/http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/news?slug=lc-carpenter_indiana_tom_crean_turnaround_031212|url-status=live}}</ref> Crean's first three seasons saw losing records of [[2008–09 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|6–25]] (the worst in school history), [[2009–10 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|10–21]], and [[2010–11 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|12–20]].

The [[2011–12 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2011–2012]] season was a watershed one for Crean and the program. The arrival of [[Indiana Mr. Basketball]] [[Cody Zeller]] brought higher expectations for year four. The team earned wins over the #1 ranked [[Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball|Kentucky]], the #2 ranked [[Ohio State Buckeyes men's basketball|Ohio State]], and #5 ranked [[Michigan State Spartans men's basketball|Michigan State]].

They again advanced to the Sweet Sixteen, the first time since the 1992–93 and 1993–94 seasons that the Hoosiers advanced to the Sweet Sixteen in back-to-back seasons. As national player of the year, Oladipo and Zeller both left for the NBA after the conclusion of the season.

After a rough start, the [[2015–16 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2015–2016]] Hoosiers finished the season 27–8 overall and 15–3 in the Big Ten to win the Big Ten regular season title outright. They received the #1 seed in the [[2016 Big Ten men's basketball tournament]], where they made an early quarterfinals exit. As Big Ten Conference Champions, the Hoosiers received an at-large bid to the [[2016 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA tournament]] and beat [[2015-16 Chattanooga Mocs men's basketball team|Chattanooga]] and [[2015-16 Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball team|Kentucky]] to advance to the Sweet 16 for the third time in five years; however, they fell to [[2015-16 North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball team|North Carolina]] in the next round. Despite the highs of the previous season and being ranked as high as #3 in the nation, the [[2016–17 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2016–2017]] team faced a troubling and disappointing year; they finished 18–16 overall and 7–11 in Big Ten play. After tying for tenth in the Big Ten, the Hoosiers missed out on the NCAA tournament and lost in the first round of the [[2017 National Invitation Tournament|NIT]], their first appearance since 2005. On March 16, 2017, the Indiana Hoosiers Athletic's Department fired coach Tom Crean.<ref>{{cite magazine |title=Tom Crean fired by Indiana|url=https://www.si.com/college-basketball/2017/03/16/tom-crean-fired-indiana-basketball-coach|magazine=Sports Illustrated|access-date=March 16, 2017|date=March 16, 2017}}</ref> He ended his tenure with the Hoosiers with an overall record of 166–135 (.551), three Sweet Sixteen appearances, and two regular season conference championships.

=== Archie Miller era (2017–2021) ===

Early in the season, Miller stated practices were 75% defense, 25% offense.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://247sports.com/college/indiana/Article/Transcript-Archie-Miller-at-IU-media-day-108128981|title=Transcript: Archie Miller at IU media day|access-date=June 12, 2018|archive-date=July 9, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250709183127/https://247sports.com/college/indiana/Article/Transcript-Archie-Miller-at-IU-media-day-108128981/|url-status=live}}</ref> That scheme showed early and often, as the Hoosiers struggled mightily throughout the season to find any flow or rhythm on offense, despite the defense making leaps and bounds in the overall rankings of Division 1 basketball.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.insidethehall.com/2018/04/10/thats-a-wrap-team-defense-6/|title=That's a Wrap: Team defense|date=10 April 2018|access-date=June 12, 2018|archive-date=June 12, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180612234424/https://www.insidethehall.com/2018/04/10/thats-a-wrap-team-defense-6/|url-status=live}}</ref> With a surprising early second round loss in the [[2018 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament|2018 Big Ten tournament]] to [[2017–18 Rutgers Scarlet Knights men's basketball team|Rutgers]], 76–67, and losing enough games to keep them out of both the NCAA tournament and NIT, including games in which they were favored, such as [[2017–18 Indiana State Sycamores men's basketball team|Indiana State]]<ref>{{Cite web|url = https://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2017/11/10/16636112/indiana-state-hoosiers-archie-miller-embarrassment-blowout|title = Indiana State embarrasses Indiana in Archie Miller's debut|date = 10 November 2017|access-date = June 12, 2018|archive-date = June 12, 2018|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20180612232917/https://www.sbnation.com/college-basketball/2017/11/10/16636112/indiana-state-hoosiers-archie-miller-embarrassment-blowout|url-status = live}}</ref> and [[2017–18 Fort Wayne Mastodons men's basketball team|Fort Wayne]],<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.news-sentinel.com/news/local-news/2017/12/18/fort-wayne-mastodons-knock-off-iu-again/|title=Fort Wayne Mastodons knock off IU…again|access-date=June 12, 2018|archive-date=June 12, 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180612232952/http://www.news-sentinel.com/news/local-news/2017/12/18/fort-wayne-mastodons-knock-off-iu-again/|url-status=live}}</ref> IU's first season under their new coach came to a disappointing close. They finished with an overall record of 16–15 and 9–9 in the Big Ten.

In 2018, Miller landed his first five star recruit when [[Romeo Langford]] committed to Indiana University. Langford, a [[McDonald's All-American Game|McDonald's-All American]] and 2018 [[Indiana Mr. Basketball]], was (according to ESPN) the 6th ranked player in the nation and number one high school player in Indiana. Despite getting off to a strong start of 12–2, which included 3 conference wins, the [[2018–19 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2018–2019]] Hoosiers struggled down the backstretch of the season. Riddled with injuries and the inability to shoot, IU lost 12 of 13 games before turning things around and finishing the regular season with a 4-game winning streak. Having put themselves back into the conversation for making the NCAA tournament for the first time in 3 years, the Hoosiers looked to knock off [[2018–19 Ohio State Buckeyes men's basketball team|Ohio State]] in the [[2019 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament|Big Ten tournament]]. However, the Hoosiers fell short and lost to Ohio State, 79–75. IU was deemed one of the Last Four Out in the NCAA tournament, so they earned 1-seed in the [[2019 National Invitation Tournament|NIT]], where they advanced to the Quarterfinals before losing to [[2018–19 Wichita State Shockers men's basketball team|Wichita State]], 73–63. Thus, the Hoosiers' 119th season ended with an overall record of 19–16 and 8–12 in the Big Ten. The Hoosiers started off another strong campaign for the [[2019–20 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2019–2020]] season by going 11–1 before dropping back-to-back games in late December 2019 and early January 2020. During the bulk of the conference season, IU was able to win most of their home games (7–3), while stealing a few road games (2–8) to end their final season with an overall record of 20–12 and a conference record of 9–11. Indiana entered the [[2020 Big Ten Conference men's basketball tournament|Big Ten tournament]] as the 11-seed where they faced the 14-seeded [[2019–20 Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball team|Nebraska Cornhuskers]]. The first round matchup ended in an 89–64 IU victory, staging a second round matchup with 6-seed [[2019–20 Penn State Nittany Lions men's basketball team|Penn State]]. However, on the morning of March 12, 2020, the Big Ten Conference announced that it would be cancelling the remaining tournament games due to the [[COVID-19 pandemic]].<ref>{{cite news|title=2020 Big Ten tournament canceled Thursday amid coronavirus pandemic concerns|url=https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/2020-big-ten-tournament-canceled-thursday-amid-coronavirus-pandemic-concerns/live/|work=CBS Sports|date=2020-03-12|access-date=2020-03-12|archive-date=March 20, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200320132226/https://www.cbssports.com/college-basketball/news/2020-big-ten-tournament-canceled-thursday-amid-coronavirus-pandemic-concerns/live/|url-status=live}}</ref> Following suit, that afternoon, the [[NCAA]] announced that it was cancelling all winter and spring championships.<ref>{{cite news|title=Coronavirus live updates: NCAA Tournament canceled; NHL suspends season; MLB to halt spring training|url=https://www.cbssports.com/general/news/coronavirus-live-updates-ncaa-tournament-canceled-nhl-suspends-season-mlb-to-halt-spring-training/live/|work=CBS Sports|date=2020-03-12|access-date=2020-03-12|archive-date=March 13, 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200313020831/https://www.cbssports.com/general/news/coronavirus-live-updates-ncaa-tournament-canceled-nhl-suspends-season-mlb-to-halt-spring-training/live/|url-status=live}}</ref> This announcement officially, and abruptly, ended the Hoosiers' season, where they were expected to make the [[2020 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA tournament]] for the first time in 4 years.<ref>{{cite news|title=NCAA tournament 2020: ESPN's Joe Lunardi has IU basketball in his final bracket|url=https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2020/03/15/march-madness-2020-iu-basketball-makes-joe-lunardis-list-after-all/5055920002/|publisher=IndyStar|date=2020-03-15|access-date=2021-03-28|archive-date=May 10, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210510183056/https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2020/03/15/march-madness-2020-iu-basketball-makes-joe-lunardis-list-after-all/5055920002/|url-status=live}}</ref>

The [[2020–21 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2020–21]] season was another disappointing one as the Hoosiers finished the regular season 12–15 overall, 7–12 in the Big Ten. Indiana closed out the season on a 6-game losing streak, leaving them out of the NCAA and NIT tournaments. On March 15, 2021, Indiana University officially parted ways with Miller and began its search for the next men's head basketball coach.<ref>{{cite news|title=Archie Miller fired after four seasons at Indiana|url=https://www.insidethehall.com/2021/03/15/archie-miller-fired-after-four-seasons-at-indiana/|work=CBS Sports|date=2021-03-15|access-date=2021-03-15|archive-date=March 15, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210315160034/https://www.insidethehall.com/2021/03/15/archie-miller-fired-after-four-seasons-at-indiana/|url-status=live}}</ref>

=== Mike Woodson era (2021–2025) ===
Just shy of two weeks after Archie Miller was fired, Indiana University announced on March 28, 2021, that former Indiana standout [[Mike Woodson]] would become the 30th head coach of the IU basketball program. In addition, former [[Ohio State Buckeyes men's basketball|Ohio State]] head coach, [[Thad Matta]], was hired on to be an associate athletic director in men's basketball administration.<ref>{{cite news|title=IU basketball to name Mike Woodson new head coach; Thad Matta will serve as associate AD|url=https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2021/03/28/indiana-basketball-names-mike-woodson-new-head-coach-iu-hoosiers-knicks/7037947002/|publisher=Indy Star|date=2021-03-28|access-date=2021-03-28|archive-date=March 28, 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210328200650/https://www.indystar.com/story/sports/college/indiana/2021/03/28/indiana-basketball-names-mike-woodson-new-head-coach-iu-hoosiers-knicks/7037947002/|url-status=live}}</ref> This was Woodson's first coaching job in the college ranks, having previously served as head coach for the [[Atlanta Hawks]] and [[New York Knicks]], serving as an assistant coach for the latter team when IU hired him.

Coach Woodson's first season at the helm saw a list of streaks come to an end for the Hoosiers. [[2021-22 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|Indiana]] finished the season 21–14 overall, and 9–11 in conference play. Along the way, IU ended losing streaks to [[Purdue Boilermakers men's basketball|Purdue]], [[Michigan Wolverines men's basketball|Michigan]], and [[Illinois Fighting Illini men's basketball|Illinois]]. as the No. 9 seed, they also advanced to the semifinals of the [[2022 Big Ten men's basketball tournament|Big Ten Conference tournament]], something they had not done since 2013. They lost to [[2021–22 Iowa Hawkeyes men's basketball team|Iowa]], 80–77, the eventual tournament champions. The Hoosiers also heard their name called on Selection Sunday for the first time since 2016. After a six-year absence from the NCAA tournament, IU was selected as a No. 12 seed to play in the [[2022 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA tournament]] First Four round in [[Dayton, Ohio]]. They knocked off No. 12 seed [[2021–22 Wyoming Cowboys basketball team|Wyoming]] to make it to the first round (Round of 64) where they lost to No. 5 seed [[2021–22 Saint Mary's Gaels men's basketball team|St. Mary's]].

The Hoosiers finished the [[2022-23 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2022–23]] regular season ranked No. 19 in the Associated Press poll. The team spent 16 weeks among the top-25 teams in the nation. The Hoosiers also captured a share of 2nd place in the Big Ten Conference with a 21–10 overall regular season record, 12–8 in Big Ten play, and the No. 3 seed in the [[2023 Big Ten men's basketball tournament|Big Ten Conference tournament]]. IU advanced to the quarterfinals before losing a close game to [[2022–23 Penn State Nittany Lions basketball team|Penn State]]. For the second year in a row, the team found themselves in the [[2023 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA Tournament]] this time as a No. 4 seed, where they improved upon their performance last year by making it to the Round of 32 but falling to the No. 5 seed [[2022–23 Miami Hurricanes men's basketball team|Miami (FL)]], 85–69. Woodson's third season didn't meet expectations as the [[2023-24 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2023–24]] Hoosiers finished 19–14 overall and 10–10 in the Big Ten. IU received the No. 6 seed in the [[2024 Big Ten men's basketball tournament|Big Ten Conference tournament]], where they beat [[2023–24 Penn State Nittany Lions basketball team|Penn State]] for the first time that season, 61–59 with a last second tip-in by [[Anthony Leal]]. In the quarterfinals, IU lost to [[2023–24 Nebraska Cornhuskers men's basketball team|Nebraska]] for the third time that season, 93–66.

The [[2024-25 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team|2024–25]] season ended up being Mike Woodson's final year as the head coach. On February 7, 2025, IU Athletics issued a statement confirming that Woodson would retire at the end of the season.<ref>{{cite news|title=Mike Woodson to step down at Indiana at season's end|url=https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/43738178/mike-woodson-step-indiana-season-end|publisher=ESPN|date=2025-02-07|access-date=2025-03-16|archive-date=March 18, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250318171627/https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/43738178/mike-woodson-step-indiana-season-end|url-status=live}}</ref> For the second year in a row IU missed out on the [[2025 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|2025 NCAA Tournament]]. Turning down other post-season tournament invites, the Hoosiers finished with an overall record of 19–13 and 10–10 in [[Big Ten Conference]] play. Thus finishing the 4-year Mike Woodson era.

=== Darian DeVries era (2025–present) ===
On March 18, 2025, [[West Virginia Mountaineers men's basketball|West Virginia]] head coach [[Darian DeVries]] was hired as the 31st head coach of the IU program.<ref>{{Cite press release|url=https://iuhoosiers.com/news/2025/3/18/mens-basketball-darian-devries-named-31st-head-coach-of-iu-mens-basketball-program|title=Darian DeVries Named 31st Head Coach of IU Men's Basketball Program|publisher=Indiana Hoosiers|date=March 18, 2025|access-date=April 7, 2025|archive-date=April 7, 2025|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20250407091418/https://iuhoosiers.com/news/2025/3/18/mens-basketball-darian-devries-named-31st-head-coach-of-iu-mens-basketball-program|url-status=live}}</ref> Within weeks of the end of the 2024–25 season, all scholarship players with remaining eligibility entered the transfer portal, forcing DeVries to begin his first season with a completely new roster. The Hoosiers found themselves in a promising position to make the [[2026 NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament|NCAA tournament]] for the first time since 2023 by starting 17–8; however, IU lost 5 of their last 6 regular season games. Finishing 10th in the conference, IU earned the No. 10 seed and faced off against No. 15 seed [[2025–26 Northwestern Wildcats men's basketball team|Northwestern]], but fell 61–74. The Hoosiers' season concluded with an overall record of 18–14, and 9–11 in Big Ten play. IU missed the NCAA tournament for the third straight year, ending up in the First Four out. On March 15, 2026, IU announced that they would not participate in any postseason tournaments, bringing the first year under Devries to a close.<ref>{{cite news |title=IU basketball misses the NCAA tournament for the third straight season|url=https://www.insidethehall.com/2026/03/15/iu-basketball-misses-the-ncaa-tournament-for-a-third-straight-season/|publisher=Inside the Hall|date=2026-03-15|access-date=2026-03-15}}</ref>

==Facilities==

===Old Assembly Hall (1901–1917)===
Indiana played at the Men's Gymnasium between 1901 to 1917. Before the 1938 demolition, it became the Assembly Hall.<ref>{{cite book|last=Hiner|first=Jason|title=Indiana University Basketball Encyclopedia|year=2005|publisher=Sports Publishing|location=United States|isbn=1-58261-655-8|page=446|url=https://archive.org/details/indianauniversit0000hine/page/446}}</ref>

===Men's Gymnasium (1917–1928)===
[[File:Indiana University Gymnasium.jpg|thumb|230px|The Men's Gymnasium hosted Hoosier basketball from 1917 to 1928 and was the first in the nation to use glass backboards.]]
{{Main|Men's Gymnasium (Indiana University)}}

The Indiana Hoosiers began playing in the Men's Gymnasium in 1917.  Due to complaints from spectators seated behind the backboards about poor visibility, the arena installed glass backboards, which may have been the first to be used in the United States.The basketball team's last season in the facility was in 1927–28, when the team won the conference championship. Because of the growing popularity of basketball at the school and the growing size of the student body, the team moved to a larger arena.<ref>{{cite book|last=Hiner|first=Jason|title=Indiana University Basketball Encyclopedia|year=2005|publisher=Sports Publishing|location=United States|isbn=1-58261-655-8|page=[https://archive.org/details/indianauniversit0000hine/page/447 447]|url=https://archive.org/details/indianauniversit0000hine/page/447}}</ref> It is now part of the School of Public Health-Bloomington.

===IU Fieldhouse (1928–1960)===
{{Main|William Leon Garrett Fieldhouse}}

The Bill Garrett Fieldhouse or William Leon Garrett Fieldhouse (formerly known as simply the Fieldhouse) was named after [[Bill Garrett (basketball)|Bill Garrett]].

===New IU Fieldhouse (1960–1971)===
{{Main|Gladstein Fieldhouse}}

The New IU Fieldhouse (later named the [[Gladstein Fieldhouse]]) was originally intended as an interim home for the men's basketball team. However, NCAA sanctions on the football program hobbled the school's finances, and the "New" Fieldhouse ended up hosting the team for 11 years from 1960 to 1971. It now serves as a state-of-the-art track and field facility.

===Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall (1971–present)===
[[File:Assemblyhallindiana.jpg|thumb|300px|An interior view of Assembly Hall's Branch McCracken Court.]]
{{Main|Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall}}

The Hoosiers currently play at [[Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall]] (pronounced like Scott).  The 17,222-seat arena has been the home of the men's basketball team since 1972. The basketball floor is named Branch McCracken Court after the legendary Hoosier coach. The north end of the arena prominently displays the program's five national championship banners. Former head coach [[Bob Knight]] called the facility a "sacred place" for student fans and athletes.<ref>{{cite news|title=Bobby Knight speaks|url=http://www.indystar.com/videonetwork/605756439001/Part-1-Bobby-Knight-speaks|newspaper=Indianapolis Star|access-date=26 April 2012|archive-date=December 11, 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111211121540/http://www.indystar.com/videonetwork/605756439001/Part-1-Bobby-Knight-speaks|url-status=live}}</ref> Basketball sportscaster [[Gus Johnson (sportscaster)|Gus Johnson]] called Assembly Hall "the Carnegie Hall of basketball."<ref name="Indiana's Assembly Hall">{{cite web|title=Indiana's Assembly Hall| date=27 March 2012 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KwopEvM9Csg| archive-url=https://ghostarchive.org/varchive/youtube/20211117/KwopEvM9Csg| archive-date=2021-11-17 | url-status=live|publisher=YouTube via IU Athletics|access-date=28 March 2012}}{{cbignore}}</ref>

===Cook Hall (2010–present)===
Cook Hall is a basketball practice facility that was completed in 2010 and is located next to [[Simon Skjodt Assembly Hall]], connected by a tunnel.  Bill and Gayle Cook donated $15&nbsp;million to the "For the Glory of Old IU" campaign, out of which came Cook Hall where the IU basketball team is able to engage in day-to-day operations. It contains the Pfau Shine Legacy Court, a museum space that chronicles the history of Indiana basketball with photographs, artifacts, trophies and interactive touch-screen kiosks. The 67,000-square-foot, three story facility features two practice courts, two locker rooms, two player lounges, a strength and conditioning area, coaches' offices, and meeting rooms.<ref>{{cite web|title=2014–15 Indiana Hoosiers Record Book|publisher=Indiana University Athletic Department|page=11|url=http://www.iuhoosiers.com/sports/m-baskbl/archive/ind-m-baskbl-archive.html|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150316032257/http://www.iuhoosiers.com/sports/m-baskbl/archive/ind-m-baskbl-archive.html|archive-date=March 16, 2015|access-date=March 28, 2015|url-status=dead}}</ref>

==Postseason appearances==
Indiana has won five NCAA Championships in men's basketball (1940, 1953, 1976, 1981, 1987) — the first two under coach [[Branch McCracken]] and the latter three under [[Bob Knight]] — and 22 [[Big Ten Conference]] championships. The Hoosiers' five NCAA Championships are tied with [[Duke Blue Devils men's basketball|Duke]] (5) for the fourth-most in history, trailing only [[UCLA Bruins men's basketball|UCLA]] (11), [[Kentucky Wildcats men's basketball|Kentucky]] (8), [[North Carolina Tar Heels men's basketball|North Carolina]] and [[UConn Huskies men's basketball|UConn]] (6).<ref name="Tourney Records">{{cite web|url=http://www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/mayhem/history/tourneyrecords |title=All-time NCAA tourney win–loss records |work=cbs.sportsline.com |access-date=31 March 2008 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080516210449/http://sportsline.com/collegebasketball/mayhem/history/tourneyrecords |archive-date=16 May 2008 }}</ref> Their eight trips to the [[Final Four]] ranks eighth (tied) on the all-time list.<ref name="Final Four Seeds">{{cite web | url=http://www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/mayhem/history/finalfourseeds | title=Tourney History – Seeds in the Final Four | work=cbs.sportsline.com | access-date=31 March 2008 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080513090526/http://www.sportsline.com/collegebasketball/mayhem/history/finalfourseeds | archive-date=13 May 2008 }}</ref> The Hoosiers have made 41 appearances in the [[NCAA Division I men's basketball tournament]] (sixth-most in NCAA history).<ref name="Tourney Records"/>  In those 41 appearances, Indiana has posted a 68–36 record (.654).<ref name="Tourney Records"/>  Its 68 victories are the seventh-most in NCAA history.<ref name="Tourney Records"/> The Hoosiers also won post-season tournaments in 1974, the [[Collegiate Commissioners Association Tournament]], and in 1979, the [[National Invitation Tournament]].
