In addition to being the second team in the Big Ten to suspend workouts, Indiana pushed the national mark past 10 while programs and conferences around the country work towards making a season possible and safe for those involved.
The Hoosiers’ scheduled opening day game against the Badgers is only 48 days away, though at this point it seems extremely unlikely the game will be played on time.
