The women’s basketball team is looking to do Thursday what the men’s team did on New Year’s Eve: knock off a highly ranked Ohio State squad in Assembly Hall. Such an upset would be the Hoosiers’ first Big Ten victory of the season, as they are 0-7 in conference play and 5-15 overall.

As the adage goes, a picture doesn’t always tell the whole story.

At every basketball game, football game or athletic promotional event, there is something constant: the cheerleaders. The cheerleaders dressed in red and white — a staple at a school with no mascot — are now National Champions, as well. On Jan. 14, the Crimson all-female squad won the UCA College National Championship. That’s right. IU has a National Championship team on the campus again, but I’m going to go out on a limb and say many people didn’t even notice.
Men's basketball columnist Avi Zaleon shares his thoughts on players that have exceeded his expectations, and those who haven't so much.

IU (5-15, 0-7) fell to the Wolverines (16-4, 5-2) 66-48, marking Indiana’s seventh-straight loss this season in conference play.
While the Hoosier men’s distance squad is on the receiving end of national attention and publicity, it was the women’s distance runners who performed well this past weekend during the Gladstein Invitational at Gladstein Fieldhouse.
Led by a slew of top finishes, the No. 10 IU men defeated the No. 20 Boilermakers 166-134. The No. 8 IU women did the same, winning 169-130 against the No. 18 Boilers
The Hoosiers ultimately could not hang on as they were defeated 23-17. This is the team’s fourth consecutive loss of the season.
