NCAA Waivers Delay Indiana Basketball Roster Decisions

Indiana men's basketball coach Darian DeVries stated that veteran guards Luke Goode and Anthony Leal are awaiting NCAA waiver decisions that will determine their eligibility for the 2025-26 season, with the process delayed by a significant backlog. DeVries said there is no timeline for when these decisions will be made, leaving both the team and players uncertain about their future roles. He is keeping roster spots available for Goode and Leal while continuing to recruit for potential openings. DeVries expressed satisfaction with the team's improved shooting and positional size, and is enthusiastic about starting team workouts as players arrive on campus. The team plans to use extra pre-season practices to help integrate new players and develop chemistry. DeVries emphasized that converting the roster's potential into on-court results remains a key focus.
