Locked On Hoosiers - Daily Podcast On Indiana Hoosiers Football & Basketball

Indiana football continues to recruit some of the best high school talent in the country, and another HUGE visitor is expected in Bloomington this fall. On today's Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins breaks down three Class of 2028 prospects expected to visit Indiana, headlined by Casey Barner, the nation's No. 1 safety according to the ranking discussed on the show. Barner has offers from programs including Alabama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia, LSU, Michigan, Ohio State, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas and Texas A&M—and now Curt Cignetti and the Indiana Hoosiers will get an opportunity to bring the elite defensive back to Bloomington. Jacob also discusses four-star Louisiana safety Jayden Keelan, with Indiana potentially positioning itself well early in his recruitment, plus highly rated in-state defensive lineman Sam Hirschy from New Palestine. Indiana isn't just expanding its recruiting footprint nationally—the Hoosiers are also trying to keep the state's best talent home. Then, TJ Pittinger of Big Ten Football Addiction joins the show to discuss the continued chaos surrounding college eligibility as players with NFL experience pursue opportunities to return to college football. Can the NCAA regain control? And where does college football go from here?

Indiana Basketball suddenly has another opportunity to look at the transfer portal as more college basketball players pursue additional eligibility — but should Darian DeVries and the Hoosiers actually make another roster move? On this bonus episode of Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins explains why Indiana's 13-man scholarship roster is likely complete after Sam Alexis received another year of eligibility. Even with major names becoming available across college basketball, Indiana may already have exactly what it needs heading into the 2026-27 season. Plus, what should Indiana fans expect from Trent Sisley in Year 2? After showing flashes as a freshman, Sisley's combination of size, versatility and defensive potential could give DeVries several ways to use him this season. Will he primarily play the 3 or the 4? And how large could his role become?

Indiana Football suddenly has another intriguing option at linebacker. Reigning Sun Belt Defensive Player of the Year Trent Hendrick has reportedly gained another year of college eligibility — and his history at James Madison creates an interesting hypothetical for Curt Cignetti and the Hoosiers. On today's Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins breaks down why Hendrick could make sense for Indiana, his production at James Madison, the Hoosiers' current linebacker depth and why Cignetti and Bryant Haines already have familiarity with the former JMU standout. Plus, Indiana's offense appears to be catching up with its defense midway through fall camp. Josh Hoover, Nick Marsh, Charlie Becker and the Hoosiers' offensive weapons continue to make progress as Week 1 approaches. Finally, we turn to Indiana Basketball, where ESPN's latest Bracketology dropped Darian DeVries and the Hoosiers to an 8-seed. Is Indiana being underrated again?

Nick Marsh is starting to look like the superstar Indiana Football expected when the Hoosiers landed the Michigan State transfer. Another Indiana fall practice is in the books, and Marsh continues to make noise. From impressive catches to growing chemistry with Josh Hoover, the talented wide receiver appears to be getting more comfortable in Curt Cignetti's program every day. Could Charlie Becker begin the season as Indiana's top target before Marsh eventually emerges as WR1? Jacob breaks down why Indiana could have two WR1-caliber receivers in Becker and Marsh—and why the Hoosiers' passing attack has serious potential in 2026. Plus, Paul Finebaum doesn't believe Indiana can win another National Championship. Is anyone surprised? We discuss the continued skepticism surrounding the defending National Champions and why Indiana doesn't need national media validation.

Then, we turn our attention to Indiana's current running back room. Turbo Richard and Khobie Martin landed on the Doak Walker Award preseason watch list, while Lee Beebe Jr. gives the Hoosiers another dangerous option in what could be one of the deepest running back rooms in the Big Ten.

Indiana Football had the best defense in college football during its 2025 national championship season — but could the Hoosiers somehow be EVEN BETTER in 2026? On today's Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins breaks down why Curt Cignetti's defense has a chance to be historically good this season. Indiana returns major production along the defensive front, added even more talent through the transfer portal and once again has one of college football's top defensive staffs. Could this become one of the best defenses college football has ever seen? Plus, we dive deeper into Indiana's No. 6 ranking in the preseason AP Top 25 and two fascinating historical trends that could point toward the Hoosiers having a legitimate chance to repeat as national champions. Finally, we react to a controversial reported comment from an NCAA Tournament Selection Committee member and discuss why subjective postseason selection continues to create problems across college athletics.

On today’s bonus episode of Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob breaks down Cignetti’s latest comments on Indiana’s position battles, including Bray Lynch taking 90% of the first-team reps at center, the competition behind Isaiah Jones and Elijah Hardy at linebacker, the possibility of Kellen Wyatt playing linebacker, and what Cignetti had to say about Indiana’s wide receiver room. The defense remains ahead of the offense, but Cignetti says the offense is beginning to make more plays as camp progresses. With no major injury concerns and plenty of upside throughout the roster, where does Indiana stand after its first scrimmage? Then, we react to the preseason AP Poll putting the defending national champion Indiana Hoosiers at No. 6. Is Indiana being disrespected again?

The defending national champion Hoosiers are preparing to host some of the country's most talented high school recruits this fall, including five-star safety Casey Barner, four-star corner Nakai Lambeth and offensive lineman Steven Caxton Idowu. Indiana is increasingly finding itself in recruiting conversations alongside some of college football's biggest programs. Jacob Goins breaks down why Indiana's recruiting momentum could be the next major step in building sustainable success in Bloomington. Plus, ESPN's early 2027 NFL Draft projections feature nine Indiana players, with Charlie Becker and Nick Marsh projected as first-round picks. We also discuss Elijah Sarratt's NFL preseason performance and what Indiana's growing NFL pipeline means for recruiting. Finally, Indiana Basketball commit Chase Branham continues to impress.

Indiana Football enters the 2026 season as the defending national champion — but is Curt Cignetti's team actually a lock to return to the College Football Playoff? On this Locked On College Crossover, Jacob Goins is joined by Zach Seyko and Spencer McLaughlin to debate the CFP chances for Indiana, Oregon and Penn State. Could the Hoosiers finish 10-2 and somehow miss the 12-team playoff? How much margin for error does Indiana really have? The guys also react to Spencer's preseason Top 25, where Indiana sits at No. 1 in the country. Is that exactly where the defending national champions belong? And should preseason rankings reward what teams accomplished last season or project what they'll become this fall? Plus, the show dives into the Jayden Daniels-LSU controversy surrounding his No. 5 jersey and whether winning the Heisman Trophy should automatically result in a number being retired.   Topics include: Indiana Football's College Football Playoff chances, Curt Cignetti, the Hoosiers' 2026 expectations, Indiana's path back to the CFP, Penn State's playoff chances, Oregon Football, preseason Top 25 rankings, Big Ten Football, Jayden Daniels and LSU.

Indiana basketball completely reloaded its roster for Year 2 under Darian DeVries, but could one of the Hoosiers' most important additions also be one of the least talked about? SMU transfer center Samet Yigitoglu gives Indiana legitimate size at 7-foot-2 and 270 pounds, and his combination of efficiency, rebounding, defense and pick-and-roll ability could make him a difference maker for the Hoosiers. After averaging nearly 11 points and eight rebounds per game while shooting 63% from the floor at SMU, Yigitoglu brings a physical presence Indiana simply didn't have at center last season. We break down why his impact could make life easier for the rest of Indiana's revamped roster. Plus, we discuss the lawsuit filed by former Indiana men's basketball head athletic trainer Tim Garl against Indiana University, the Board of Trustees and athletic director Scott Dolson, including the allegations described in the lawsuit and why this is another situation to follow around IU Athletics.

Everyone knows about Charlie Becker and Nick Marsh. But Indiana Football's wide receiver room might be much deeper than those two stars. On today's Locked On Hoosiers, we break down one of the most overlooked position groups in Bloomington and ask the biggest question facing the room: Who becomes Josh Hoover's third wide receiver? Becker returns after making some of Indiana's biggest catches during last season's championship run, while Michigan State transfer Nick Marsh brings another potentially elite weapon into Curt Cignetti and Mike Shanahan's offense. But the real intrigue begins behind them. Could Tulane transfer Shazz Preston become WR3? Can Michigan transfer Tyler Morris finally stay healthy and emerge? What roles could LeBron Bond and Davion Chandler earn during fall camp? Indiana's opponents are going to build game plans around stopping Becker and Marsh. Eventually, somebody else will have to beat them — and the Hoosiers have several intriguing candidates capable of doing exactly that. We also react to On3's preseason Top 25, where Indiana comes in at No. 6, and look around the Big Ten at Ohio State, Oregon, USC, Michigan, Washington, Penn State and Iowa. Finally, college football has made several rule changes for the 2026 season, including an important change to the punishment for targeting. We break down what's changing and why it's an improvement over the previous rule. Who do YOU think becomes Indiana's WR3 behind Charlie Becker and Nick Marsh?

The outside noise surrounding Josh Hoover hasn't stopped. Some believe Indiana Football is taking a step backward at quarterback after Kurtis Rourke and Fernando Mendoza. But after the early stages of Indiana fall camp, there are plenty of reasons for Hoosier fans to feel good about where Hoover stands entering his first season running Curt Cignetti's offense. On today's bonus episode of Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins explains why Hoover appears to be right on schedule in Bloomington — and why the outside doubt surrounding Indiana's new quarterback may be overlooking what Cignetti, Mike Shanahan and Tino Sunseri have built offensively. Hoover hasn't been perfect throughout his career, and his turnover history at TCU remains a legitimate question. But through the early practices discussed in this episode, turnovers and missed throws haven't emerged as major problems. Hoover has also shown the short and intermediate accuracy that could fit particularly well with Indiana's passing attack. And Hoover won't have to do it alone. Indiana surrounds him with a deep collection of receivers, running backs and offensive linemen, while the tight end competition continues during fall camp. The episode also discusses early impressions of Turbo Richard, Lee Beebe Jr. and Brock Schott as Indiana's offense takes shape. Then we dive into something that might help explain why Curt Cignetti keeps winning. Indiana's practices are short, intense, detailed and extremely efficient. Cignetti doesn't want his players or coaches wasting hours simply for the sake of being at the facility. Could that approach help prevent burnout, keep players fresh and even become another recruiting advantage for the Hoosiers? Are you buying Josh Hoover as Indiana's next successful quarterback?

Is college football really heading toward a 24-team College Football Playoff? The 2026 CFP remains a 12-team format, but the debate over future expansion continues — with potential formats involving 16, 20 and even 24 teams becoming part of the conversation. On today's Locked On Hoosiers and Locked On Nittany Lions crossover, Jacob Goins and Zach Seyko debate whether college football should stop dragging this out and simply embrace a much larger playoff. Would a 24-team playoff create more meaningful postseason games and massive matchups? Or would continued expansion water down the regular season, eliminate traditional bowl games and potentially change conference championship games? There's also one enormous factor driving the conversation: money. More playoff teams create more games. More games create more television inventory, ticket sales, merchandise opportunities and revenue. That's a major reason Zach believes expansion is ultimately inevitable. But Jacob raises another concern: are college football fans simply getting exhausted by the constant changes to the postseason? We also discuss an ESPN report about what starting players at Power Conference programs are commanding financially, including the incredible market for quarterbacks and premium positions. And later, we dive into an important Indiana Football fall-camp battle. Penn State transfer AJ Harris entered Bloomington looking like a potential starter, but returning cornerback Ryland Gandy is reportedly ahead in the competition opposite Jamari Sharpe. What does that mean for Curt Cignetti's secondary? Would YOU support a 24-team College Football Playoff? Or has expansion already gone far enough?   00:00 Is a 24-Team Playoff Coming? 01:41 Just Go to 24 Teams Already? 03:27 What Happens to Bowl Games? 04:44 The MONEY Behind CFP Expansion 06:51 Big Ten vs. SEC on Expansion 07:20 How Much Are College Players Making? 09:06 What Does a Starting Player Cost? 10:44 $1-3 MILLION for a Quarterback?! 11:43 Running Back Market Value 12:52 Offensive Linemen Are Getting PAID 14:59 What Kickers & Defenders Make 15:39 Will Player Salaries Ever Drop? 17:28 College Football's Spending Problem 19:01 $100 Million Rosters?! 20:33 AJ Harris May NOT Start at Indiana 24:08 AJ Harris vs. Ryland Gandy 25:28 What Happened to AJ Harris? 26:32 Is Harris a System Corner? 27:09 Why Indiana Shouldn't Panic 28:37 Can Harris Win the Job? 29:38 Final Thoughts   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!   KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get $10 when you trade $10. .   The Game Don't miss this chance to celebrate 40 years of The Game with 40% off your entire order. Visit https://TheGameCaps.com  and use promo code  LOCKEDON at checkout.

Curt Cignetti just gave Indiana Football fans a fascinating look inside the Hoosiers' plan for quarterback Josh Hoover — including why Indiana believes it can put the former TCU QB in a better position to succeed. On this bonus episode of Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins reacts to Cignetti's film-room session with ESPN's Rece Davis, where the Indiana head coach broke down film from the Hoosiers' championship season and explained what his staff saw while evaluating Hoover in the transfer portal. Cignetti acknowledged Hoover's turnover issues at TCU, but he also pointed to how much was being asked of the quarterback. Indiana plans to run the football more and provide Hoover with more support — potentially allowing the new Hoosiers quarterback to play more efficiently inside Cignetti's offense. Could Indiana's offensive system help unlock another level from Josh Hoover? Plus, Indiana Football is LOADED with preseason All-America talent. Six Hoosiers were selected to On3's preseason All-America teams, including first-team selections Rolijah Hardy, Carter Smith and Tyrique Tucker. But did On3 actually leave several Indiana stars off the list? Jacob explains why Josh Hoover, Nick Marsh, Amare Ferrell and several others could force their way into the All-America conversation by the end of the season. How much better do you think Josh Hoover can be in Indiana's offense?

Indiana Football quarterback Josh Hoover is already receiving criticism from opposing college football coaches — and Jacob Goins believes they may be making the same mistake people have made with Curt Cignetti’s Hoosiers before. On today’s Locked On Hoosiers, we react to anonymous comments collected by ESPN’s Adam Rittenberg about quarterbacks across college football. One Big 12 defensive coordinator questioned whether Hoover can come close to what Fernando Mendoza accomplished at Indiana, while a Big Ten coach offered a more measured assessment of the former TCU quarterback. Is Hoover really a step down? Or could playing in Curt Cignetti’s offense with Mike Shanahan and Tino Sunseri help unlock another level from Indiana’s new QB1? Jacob explains why Hoover doesn’t need to become Fernando Mendoza for Indiana to have another elite offense — and why he believes Hoover can finish among the best quarterbacks in both the Big Ten and the country. We also dive into the latest College Football Playoff expansion discussions, including a newly discussed 20-team model featuring four play-in games. Would that actually improve college football, or are television networks pushing the sport toward an unnecessarily massive postseason? Plus, Indiana Basketball has added Western Illinois to its 2026-27 non-conference schedule as Darian DeVries and the Hoosiers move closer to completing their full slate.

Indiana Football is entering its first full week of fall camp, and Curt Cignetti may already be giving us some clues about players who could be moving up the depth chart. On this bonus episode of Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins breaks down Cignetti's latest comments from Indiana Football practice, including an intriguing development in the backup quarterback competition between Tyler Cherry and Grant Wilson. Josh Hoover is Indiana's starting quarterback, but who will be behind him? Cherry received an opportunity to work with the second-team offense after Wilson handled those reps during the opening days of camp. Could the talented young quarterback be starting to make his move? We also dive into a surprisingly competitive Indiana tight end room. Miami transfer Brock Schott appeared to be a natural candidate to emerge as Indiana's top option, but Andrew Barker, Blake Thiry and Trevor Gibbs are among the young tight ends competing for roles. Plus, could Indiana's offensive line be deeper than expected? And we have the latest on Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt as Indiana continues to work its way through fall camp. What do YOU want to see Indiana do at QB2: stick with Grant Wilson's experience or develop Tyler Cherry for the future?

Indiana Football has one major position battle to watch during fall camp — and the early leader might not be who many expected. On today’s Locked On Hoosiers, Jacob Goins breaks down the battle between Ryland Gandy and Penn State transfer AJ Harris for the starting cornerback spot opposite Jamari Sharpe. Harris looked like an obvious candidate to replace D’Angelo Ponds when he arrived in Bloomington, but Gandy’s early work in fall camp has made this one of the most fascinating competitions on Curt Cignetti’s roster. Could Gandy actually win the starting job? What would that mean for Harris? And could this competition continue into the opening weeks of the season? We also catch up on a wild few days around Indiana Football. Purdue’s new athletic director took a shot at the Hoosiers that quickly drew attention, while Indiana added even more depth to an already loaded defensive front with Kellan Wyatt and Stephen Daley returning. Plus, we discuss the Protect College Sports Act, why action has been pushed into September, and what potential changes involving NIL, roster spending and college athletics could eventually mean for programs like Indiana. Who should start opposite Jamari Sharpe: Ryland Gandy or AJ Harris? Let me know in the comments.

Indiana football may have a bigger problem than Ohio State, Michigan, or Washington. The buzz around Bryant Haines and Mike Shanahan becoming future head coaches is growing, and if Curt Cignetti loses one—or both—of his coordinators after this season, it could completely reshape the future of Indiana football. I explain why this conversation is becoming much more realistic, why Pete Nakos' latest report matters, and whether Indiana can actually keep one of the best coaching staffs in college football together.   Then TJ Pittinger joins the show to predict Indiana's 2026 season, discussing: Nebraska as a dangerous trap game Ohio State and Michigan back-to-back Washington as a playoff-defining matchup Indiana's realistic College Football Playoff chances Final record prediction   Can Indiana survive coordinator departures?   00:00 Indiana Coordinators Leaving Buzz 04:31 Coordinator Loyalty & Motivation 06:22 Hoosiers' Season At Risk 11:18 Indiana Schedule Predictions 13:03 Nebraska Game Trap 14:14 Ohio State & Michigan Threat 16:01 Road Test at Washington 18:08 Win Total Floor 19:43 Playoff Outlook & Scenarios 21:39 Michigan Game Difficulty 24:28 Ohio State Loss Fallout 27:26 Michigan Schedule Analysis 30:02 Michigan Matchup Style 31:14 Closing Thoughts   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!   KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get up to $500 in bonus credits when you trade $25.   The Game Don't miss this chance to celebrate 40 years of The Game with 40% off your entire order. Visit https://TheGameCaps.com  and use promo code  LOCKEDON at checkout.

ESPN faces backlash over unchecked SEC bias, stirring questions about college football media narratives. The Big 10 Squad debates Peter Burns’ misleading SEC vs. Big Ten strength of schedule claims, examining how media giants influence perceptions and why networks like Fox and CBS hesitate to match ESPN’s promotional energy for the Big Ten. Ohio State’s and Penn State’s identical 9.5 win totals spark heated predictions. The roundtable breaks down Ryan Day’s daunting schedule—including Texas, USC, Oregon, and Michigan—and evaluates whether the Buckeyes can surpass lofty expectations or stumble amid fierce competition. Insights into Penn State’s revamped roster, key transfers, and Big Ten title aspirations add intrigue. Will Ohio State’s offensive line issues cost them a playoff shot, or does Jeremiah Smith’s star power make the difference? The hosts weigh bold over/under picks for the season ahead.

Indiana Hoosiers football eyes the nation's top offensive line as fall camp kicks off. With Carter Smith leading at left tackle and Josh Hoover behind center, can Indiana repeat its national championship run in 2026? The conversation focused on lineup changes, Curt Cignetti’s expectations, and the impact of recent transfers on the offensive front. Insights include how Josh Hoover’s performance depends on protection and what Indiana must do to maintain offensive dominance.

The discussion explored mistaken narratives about Indiana’s non-conference scheduling and dissected how USC’s rivalry impacted the move. Plus, Indiana men’s soccer makes history with a groundbreaking title sponsorship from IU Credit Union, raising questions about the future of college athletics funding.

Indiana football and Indiana basketball may have just caught one of the biggest breaks of the offseason.

Curt Cignetti gave Indiana football fans one of the biggest clues yet about the 2026 Hoosiers at Big Ten Media Days. After speaking about Turbo Richard, Khobie Martin and Lee Beebe Jr., Cignetti made it clear that Indiana plans to rotate all three running backs, just like last season. Could this be the deepest running back room in the Big Ten? Jacob Goins breaks down Cignetti's comments, why Indiana's offensive line makes this group even more dangerous, and why this position could be the biggest reason the Hoosiers make another championship run.   Plus: Big Ten Media Days recap Spencer McLaughlin joins the show Indiana vs SEC discussion Why Josh Hoover benefits the most   Subscribe for daily Indiana Hoosiers football coverage. #iufb #IndianaFootball #CurtCignetti #BigTen #CollegeFootball #Hoosiers   00:00 Hoosiers Media Days Recap 01:22 Indiana Running Backs Preview 03:30 Curt Cignetti Running Back Analysis 04:00 Running Back Rotation Plan 05:03 Offensive Line Strength 07:10 RBs Catching Out Backfield 08:05 SEC Hardships Clip Setup 09:58 SEC Narrative Debate 11:20 Big Ten vs SEC Argument 13:03 Coaching/Championship Gap 16:33 SEC Dominance Decline 19:00 Championship Banner Comparison 21:01 Media Days Takeaways 22:41 Personal Reflections & Thanks 24:41 Upcoming IU Football Camp   Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!   KALSHI For a limited time, Download the Kalshi app and use code [LOCKEDON] to get up to $500 in bonus credits when you trade $25.   The Game Don't miss this chance to celebrate 40 years of The Game with 40% off your entire order. Visit https://TheGameCaps.com  and use promo code  LOCKEDON at checkout.   Wayfair Patio season is here and these deals won’t last!

Indiana Basketball brought home gold for Team USA in Peru, but the biggest takeaway is what the trip revealed about Darian DeVries’ second Hoosiers roster. After watching Indiana go undefeated, Jacob Goins explains why this team has the depth, physicality, guard play and toughness required to return to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since the 2022–23 season. Aiden Sherrell earned tournament MVP honors, Bryce Lindsay delivered his strongest performance of the trip, and Indiana’s freshmen gained valuable experience before the regular season. The competition will become much tougher, but the Hoosiers already look more prepared to withstand the challenges of Big Ten play.   Plus: Indiana Football is picked to finish third in the Big Ten preseason poll Why Oregon—not Ohio State—should be the conference favorite Why USC will not finish in the top five What Tyrique Tucker, Isaiah Jones and Carter Smith can reveal at Big Ten Media Days How Curt Cignetti’s veteran leaders represent the defending national champions   Can Indiana Basketball finally return to March?
