Indiana University has shifted from its historical prominence in basketball to becoming a “football school,” evidenced by the football team’s recent success, including selling out season tickets and reaching the postseason six times since 2015. Meanwhile, the basketball team is set to miss the NCAA Tournament for the eighth time in ten years after losing to Northwestern for the seventh consecutive time. Despite being a well-resourced program, Indiana basketball has struggled with its coaching choices and has not reached an Elite Eight since 2002. As donors and fans turn their attention to football, the basketball program faces an uncertain future.
