Indiana’s move to cancel a nonconference series with Louisville was a shrewd, almost essential move when it happened in 2023.
Per reporting from Michael Niziolek at the Herald-Times, the program has made another, similar move in cancelling an upcoming series against Virginia. There’s a few differences this time around, but it’s worth revisiting the previous series cancellation.
Indiana and Louisville were set to meet three times, each receiving a home game after an opening neutral site matchup in Indianapolis. Instead, only said neutral site matchup was played, resulting in a loss for a then-spiraling Indiana program.
