Episode Details

Indiana basketball completely reloaded its roster for Year 2 under Darian DeVries, but could one of the Hoosiers' most important additions also be one of the least talked about?

SMU transfer center Samet Yigitoglu gives Indiana legitimate size at 7-foot-2 and 270 pounds, and his combination of efficiency, rebounding, defense and pick-and-roll ability could make him a difference maker for the Hoosiers.

After averaging nearly 11 points and eight rebounds per game while shooting 63% from the floor at SMU, Yigitoglu brings a physical presence Indiana simply didn't have at center last season. We break down why his impact could make life easier for the rest of Indiana's revamped roster.

Plus, we discuss the lawsuit filed by former Indiana men's basketball head athletic trainer Tim Garl against Indiana University, the Board of Trustees and athletic director Scott Dolson, including the allegations described in the lawsuit and why this is another situation to follow around IU Athletics.
