Indiana men’s basketball (2-0, 0-0 Big Ten) is set to take on Syracuse (2-0, 0-0 ACC) this evening at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
The Hoosiers, featuring an almost entirely new roster for head coach Darian DeVries’ second season leading the program, are 2-0 with blowout victories over Eastern Illinois and Bellarmine to open the season. This is a very different from from DeVries’ first group, looking to overwhelm teams with size down low rather than 3-point shooting volume.
The Orange are
led by first year head coach and program legend Gerry McNamara, who returns after a two-year stint as the head coach at Siena. Those two years represent McNamara’s lone prior head coaching experience but he did tremendous work with the Saints including a closely contested first round matchup against No. 1-seed Duke this past March.
This being at Gainbridge Fieldhouse will make it a semi-home environment for Indiana. Be sure to join our game chat for live updates and analysis from in the arena!
