Five takeaways from Indiana’s regular season
Indiana concluded the 2021-22 regular season with an 18-12 record and a 9-11 mark in Big Ten play. The Hoosiers earned the No. 9 seed in this week’s Big Ten tournament in Indianapolis.
Here are five takeaways from Indiana’s regular season:
Indiana had the Big Ten’s best defense
Mike Woodson warned Indiana fans in the offseason that his team’s defense was far ahead of the offense. That proved to be the case for the duration of the 2021-22 regular season.
The Hoosiers finished the conference season with the league’s best defense at 1.008 points per possession allowed. That’s no small feat for a first-year coach in a conference with some of the best coaches and scouting anywhere.
