2025 IU football position preview: Linebacker

Related Topics: Zay Jones, Bryant Haines, Evan Turner

Indiana football was active in the transfer portal during the offseason, adding transfers at all but one position: linebacker. Even after losing Jailin Walker, defensive coordinator Bryant Haines kept Indiana’s linebacker unit intact around returning All-American Aiden Fisher.

The stability in the linebacker room has sparked optimism that last season’s dominant group can replicate its success in 2025.

First team: Aiden Fisher (Sr.), Rolijah Hardy (So.)
Second team: Isaiah Jones (R-Jr.), Kaiden Turner (R-Jr.)
