Hoosiers Through and Through

by Terry Hutchens

Overview

583 basketball players from the state of Indiana have gone on to play basketball at Indiana University in more than 110 years of competition. Amon the group are 26 players who won the coveted Mr. Basketball award as high school seniors. Also included are 35 players who went on to become All-Americans at IU and 10 who were Big Ten Most Valuable Players. IN 2000, Indiana released its All-Century team of the best players at IU in the previous 100 years. Nine of the players on that team were from the state of Indiana prior to playing at IU. All 583 of these players could be considered Hoosiers through and through. They grew up shooting baskets on hoops all across the state of Indiana and dreamed about someday playing for the state school. For these athletes, that dream came true. This book will acknowledge all of them while focusing on the top 50 players all-time in Indiana University lore that hailed from the Hoosier state.
