BLOOMINGTON — Indiana basketball will serve up this weekend’s dessert Sunday, when the Hoosiers bookend a monumental IU sports weekend with an exhibition against North Carolina at Gainbridge Fieldhouse in Indianapolis.
The second of three preseason games this month, the Hoosiers’ meeting with UNC might — if for brand reasons alone — be the one most alluring to fans. After last Sunday’s comfortable win over Butler in Hinkle Fieldhouse, coach Darian DeVries will want this one to serve as another step forward for his remade roster.
