Indiana’s football program soared from surprise contender to national champion in just a few seasons, but now faces a major rebuilding challenge as key stars depart—quarterback Fernando Mendoza, top running backs, and elite receivers are gone. With the 2026 season looming, the Hoosiers are leaning on transfers and returning talent to fill the void. Josh Hoover is poised to lead passing stats, Turbo Richard looks to dominate rushing, and Nick Marsh should see the most targets. On defense, Rolijah Hardy is expected to again lead in tackles, Stephen Daley could explode with sacks, and Amare Ferrell is primed to intercept more passes. Can this revamped roster repeat their magic—or even rise higher?
