com/8dVqoP6bwc — Sam Kayser (@KayserHoops) April 28, 2026 Indiana’s in it alongside LSU, Mississippi State (again), Seton Hall, NC State and UCF.

If the early returns on Indiana’s high school recruiting under Darian DeVries show anything it’s that the program could use more punch in the frontcourt.
