We’re coming off of a pretty eventful weekend for Indiana.
On one hand, Fernando Mendoza was named the winner of the 2025 Heisman Trophy on Saturday night, becoming the first player in Indiana program history
to win the award. On another, the men’s basketball team fell to Kentucky on the road following a second half collapse for the ages. It was the first matchup in a four-game series, not exactly getting the rivalry restarted on the right foot.
