About Indiana Hoosiers
Indiana Hoosiers 2021: News, Schedule, Roster, Scores, Injury Report
The Indiana Hoosiers compete in NCAA Men’s Basketball as a part of the Big Ten Conference. Some notable opponents from the conference include Iowa, Michigan, and Ohio State. They were founded in 1901.
The residents of the state of Indiana are called Hoosier. There was once a contractor named Samuel Hoosier who preferred to hire only Indiana residents. So his workers were called Hoosier's men, and the name stuck on for the people of the state. So the university has adopted this as their nickname.
The Hoosiers have been consistent with their logo. It has always been a letter U, which has the letter I on top of it. While it has always been a 2D image, from 1982-2001, there was a 3D version. Then in 2002, it returned to how it was earlier, but with a chiseled look.
