The transmission of the key receives positive information about the ankle injury
The Indiana Hoosiers are looking to return to the NCAA Tournament in 2025-26. first season under new coach Darian DeVries who was hired from West Virginia. For a successful season, Indiana will rely on several key transfers including Nick Dorn who has been dealing with a foot injury in recent weeks.
But as Indiana’s season opener against Alabama A&M approaches, Darian DeVries hopes to have Nate Dorn approved for return from his injury soon, according to John Rothstein of CBS Sports. The team hopes Dorn will be cleared this week to resume all basketball-related activities, and will be officially questionable for next week’s season opener on Nov. 5.
Dorn committed to Indiana this offseason after entering the transfer portal from Elon. He spent his first two seasons of college basketball at Elon and is coming off his first sophomore season. Dorn appeared in 25 games last season, all starts, with just over 30 minutes per game.
He averaged 15.2 points and 3.8 rebounds while shooting 37.4 percent from the field, 35.1 percent from the three-point line and 80.5 percent from the free throw line.
Dorn is part of a large transfer group that has joined the Hoosiers for the upcoming season. That group also includes guard Jasai Miles, forward Josh Harris, guard Connor Enright, forward Tucker DeVries, guard Tayton Connerway, guard Lamar Wilkerson, forward Reid Bailey, guard Jason Drake and forward Sam Alexis.
Long considered one of college basketball’s blue bloods, Indiana has made just three NCAA Tournament appearances in the last ten years. This will be the first year of the DeVries era, after Mike Woodson stepped down at the end of last season.
DeVries spent one season as the head coach at West Virginia where he led the Mountaineers to a 19-13 record. Prior to that, he was the head coach at Drake where he led the Bulldogs to three NCAA Tournament appearances in five years. The tournament has been canceled during the 2019-2020 season.
