Doyel: Tiny crowd for IU-Syracuse basketball? Purdue loss to Valparaiso? Here's what it all means.

The first week of the college basketball season brought two eye-popping results locally, one at Purdue and other at Indiana . Purdue lost Nov. 6 to Valparaiso, the Boilermakers ’ first loss to a mid-major opponent at Mackey Arena since 2014. The Hoosiers beat Syracuse in front of 5,047 at Gainbridge Fieldhouse on Monday, the smallest crowd to see an IU basketball game in Indiana since the global pandemic. Go ahead, if it makes you feel better, and consider those results unrelated. One team won, one lost. One played a mid-major, another a historically elite program from a powerhouse conference. One large crowd. One small. What’s the connection here? What’s the problem ? The NIL-and-transfer portal era of college basketball is the connection. The future is the problem. What happened to the crowd for an Indiana basketball game in Downtown Indianapolis – and what will happen to the Purdue roster, going forward – are related to the upheaval of college sports, an upheaval that hasn’t been good for anyone but the athletes. No snark there. No shade. Before the landscape changed in the last five years – before lawsuits forced the NCAA to go from indifferent to impotent – college

Why there was 'never thought' center would sit out Indiana basketball win after stitches

BLOOMINGTON — Indiana basketball's starter center Samet Yigitoglu scored a game-high 18 points in Thursday night's 90-66 win over Tennessee Tech despite missing an extended stretch in the first half. After scoring on IU's first three trips down the floor in the opening minutes, Yigitoglu got hit as he went up for another shot and stayed back under his own basket as play continued. The contact opened up a gash around his right eye, and he had to press a towel against his head to stop the bleeding as he walked back to the locker room. Yigitoglu spent the entire time with the trainers getting stitched up — about 10 minutes of game time — just itching to get back on the floor. "Even when I was bad, I was thinking I'm going to be back," Yigitoglu said. "I never thought I was going to miss the game. I was ready to go." The officials reviewed the play that left Yigitoglu shaken up for a flagrant foul, but announced it was just "incidental contact." He received an ovation from the crowd at Assembly Hall when walked up to the scorer's table with 7:14 left in the first half. Yigitoglu, who

Numbers that Matter: Indiana vs.USC

It’s one of football’s oldest truths: when the final whistle sounds, the scoreboard tells you who won, but the numbers often tell you why. A team may rack up more yards and still walk away with a loss, only for the turnover margin to reveal the difference. Another may control the ball, dominate time of possession, and quietly squeeze the life out of a comeback attempt. Whether it’s field position, third-down efficiency, explosive plays, or costly mistakes, the box score often uncovers the story beneath the result. In a game decided by inches, the numbers have a way of explaining what the eye test alone cannot.
