Ep 1328 - IU Downs Oregon + Lamar Wilkerson’s Scoring Tear, Sam Alexis Breakout & Illinois Preview
Podcast: CrimsonCastPublished On: Thu Feb 12 2026
Description: Galen Clavio and Grace Ybarra are back with a midweek IU athletics update — and this one is all about Indiana men’s basketball finding traction.They open with the Hoosiers’ 92–74 win over Oregon, highlighted by another monster scoring night from Lamar Wilkerson and a huge efficiency game from Sam Alexis. The conversation then turns to what’s changing under head coach Darian DeVries (including how he’s adjusting Alexis’ usage), why Indiana’s offense is beginning to feel more sustainable, and the one looming concern: a defensive trendline that’s drifting the wrong way even as the wins pile up.From there, it’s a forward look at Illinois—matchup strengths/weaknesses, injury questions, and what Indiana needs to do to steal one on the road—before zooming out to bracketology and the Big Ten Tournament seeding mess (yes, including the dreaded 11 a.m. tips).
