Adam Howard, Indiana men’s basketball assistant director of recruiting and operations, was fired Friday. The Indianapolis Star’s Zach Osterman first broke the news on X.
An Indiana basketball spokesperson said there is no comment from the program at this time.
Howard was a four-year student manager at Indiana before he became a graduate manager over the past two seasons. In July, he was promoted to the position he held until Friday. He was with the team Wednesday during the Hoosiers’ victory over Southern Illinois University Edwardsville.
Howard serves as the president of men’s basketball operations for Grow The Game, a manager-run organization that provides student managers with resources to begin their career.
An Indianapolis native, Howard played basketball under his father, Todd Howard, at Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School. On Nov. 1, Indiana defeated Marian University, where Todd is an assistant on head coach Pat Knight’s staff.
Indiana returns to action at noon Nov. 10 against Eastern Illinois University. The contest will stream on Big Ten+.
