The team played its home games in the Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana, and was a member of the Big Ten Conference.

What followed was a surprise run to the National Championship game, earning the program its eighth Final Four appearance.

Though the Hoosiers lost to Maryland in the final, they upset top-seeded Duke in the Sweet 16 and took down future Indiana head coach Kelvin Sampson's 2-seed Oklahoma Sooners squad in the Final Four.

The team was led by Bloomington-native sophomore star Jared Jeffries.

Other members of the team included seniors Dane Fife and Jarrad Odle, as well as another former Indiana Mr. Basketball Tom Coverdale.
