The 2008–09 Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team represents Indiana University. The Head Coach is Tom Crean. The team plays its home games in the Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana, and is a member of the Big Ten Conference.
The Big Ten Network included the team in a two and a half hour special that featured Midnight Madness events from several Big Ten campuses on October 17, 2008, the Indiana event to kick of the season was called "Hoosier Hysteria".[1] The Hoosiers defeated the Northwestern St. Demons on November 14th in Head Coach Tom Crean's opening game.
In November 2008, the NCAA imposed a three year probation on the Indiana men's basketball program and upheld the school's self-imposed sanctions stemming from the actions of former head coach Kelvin Sampson and his staff. School athletic director Rick Greenspan has resigned but is continuing in his position until a successor has been named. There is no ban for the program in television, scholarships or post-season play.[2]
