The Coaches
• Archie Miller is the 29th head coach in Indiana men's basketball history. The 38-year old native of Beaver Falls, Pennsylvania, comes to IU after serving the previous six seasons as head coach at the University of Dayton, where he won Atlantic 10 Conference regular season championships in 2016 and 2017. He was Atlantic 10 Coach of the Year in 2017. He guided the Flyers to a 139-63 record (69.8) and a 68-34 mark (66.7) in the Atlantic 10. He took Dayton to the NCAA Tournament each of the last four years with the Flyers advancing to the Elite Eight in the 2014 Tournament. UD was nationally ranked in three of Miller's six seasons (2013-14, 2014-15 and 2015-16).
• Stan Gouard is in his 10th season at UIndy. He is 166-92 with the Greyhounds and has led his team to six NCAA Tournament appearances.
News & Notes
• IU has more former players in the NBA than any other school in the Big Ten (8). Currently active at press time are Eric Gordon and Troy Williams (Houston), Yogi Ferrell (Dallas), Victor Oladipo (Indiana), Thomas Bryant (Los Angeles), Noah Vonleh (Portland), OG Anunoby (Toronto) and Cody Zeller (Charlotte). Michigan and Michigan State each have six, Ohio State and Wisconsin have four, and Purdue has three.
• UIndy senior forward Alex Etherington is the brother of former Hoosier Austin Etherington.
• The Hoosiers will open the regular season on Friday, November 10 when it hosts Indiana State at 7 p.m.
Quick Hits
• Graduate forward Collin Hartman is back for a fifth year. The Indianapolis Cathedral product suffered a left knee injury in a non-contact drill and underwent surgery and did not play during the 2016-17 season. Hartman started 24 games for the eventual Big Ten champions in 2016, averaging 5.0 points and 3.1 rebounds per game. The injury wasn't Hartman's first knee problem in college — he tore the anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee shortly after his freshman season in 2014. He rehabilitated quickly enough to appear in 32 games during the 2014-15 season.
• Senior guard Robert Johnson has been in the Hoosiers lineup for 87 of the 98 games he has been healthy to play since joining the team in 2014-15. He averaged 8.9 points as a freshman and is close to joining the 1,000-point club at IU with 978 career points.
• Senior guard Josh Newkirk started 32 games a year ago and averaged 9.0 points and led the team with 108 assists. He averaged 10.3 points per game in Big Ten play.
• Junior forward Juwan Morgan started 20 games last year for the Hoosiers and averaged 7.7 points. He made a school record 14 straight field goals in a three-game span last season. Earned the teams second gold standard jersey.
• Sophomore forward De'Ron Davis started four games and averaged 5.9 points and 3.1 rebounds in his freshman year. Has lost 21 pounds since Clif Marshall came here.
• Sophomore guard Devonte Green was the only player in the country last year to hit two shots from beyond half court. He was the first player to earn the right to wear a gold jersey in practice. That is given to the player who has displayed a Gold Standard in his play.
• Sophomore guard Curtis Jones had 15 points, including five in the final two minutes to help the Hoosiers beat Kansas in the Armed Forces Classic in Hawaii. He won the Slam Dunk Contest at Hoosiere Hysteria.
• Despite a coaching change, IU was able to hold on to its entire 2017 recruiting class in center Clifton Moore, Aljami Durham, and Justin Smith. Forward Race Thompson was a late addition. The Minnesota native is expected to redshirt. Durham missed the Marian game due to a hamstring injury.
• The Hoosiers ranked among the top 10 programs in the country in average home attendance during the 2016-17 season, finishing ninth in the country with an average of 16,363 fans per game. It is the sixth straight season that the Hoosiers have ranked among the top 10 teams average attendance in the country.
• Since Assembly Hall was opened in November, 1971, Indiana has ranked in the top 10 in attendance in 39 of the last 46 seasons.
• Don Fischer begins his 45th year as the play-by-play voice of the Indiana Hoosiers.
• IU will face four teams that are preseason nationally ranked in non-conference play. The Hoosiers take on Seton Hall, Duke, Louisville, and Notre Dame.
• IU will play in the Gavitt Games for the second time in three years. The Hoosiers will travel to Seton Hall. IU hosted and defeated Creighton in 2015.
• The Hoosiers will face a Big Ten opponent, Michigan, on December 2 in Ann Arbor. It is the earliest time in history that IU will play a conference game. The Cream and Crimson also will play two days later at home against Iowa.
