Podcast: CrimsonCastPublished On: Fri Feb 13 2026
Description: Galen Clavio drops a quick Friday “mini episode” with updates on Indiana football and a deep dive into what’s happening with Indiana men’s basketball under the hood.First: IU football news, including Broyles Award winner Bryant Haines and what it says about the credibility (and sustainability) of Indiana’s defensive identity. Then Galen pivots to hoops with a detailed look at the advanced numbers—why IU’s season has essentially become two different teams: an early stretch powered by defense, followed by a January run where the offense has become elite while the defense has slipped.Finally, Galen explains why those trendlines matter with Illinois and Purdue looming, what Indiana can realistically change late in the year, and how Big Ten Tournament seeding (and avoiding Wednesday) should shape the stretch-run mindset.
