The Indiana Hoosiers men's basketball team is the intercollegiate men's basketball program representing Indiana University (IU). The school competes in the Big Ten Conference in Division I of the NCAA. The Hoosiers play on Branch McCracken Court at the Assembly Hall in Bloomington, Indiana on the IU campus. Indiana has won five NCAA Championships in men's basketball (1940, 1953, 1976, 1981, 1987) — the first two under coach Branch McCracken and the latter three under Bob Knight — and 20 Big Ten Conference championships. The Hoosiers' five NCAA Championships are tied for third in history with North Carolina (5), trailing only UCLA (11), and Kentucky (7). Indiana's 1976 squad remains the last undefeated NCAA men's basketball champion. Indiana has intense rivalries both in-state, against the Purdue Boilermakers, and out-of-state, against the Kentucky Wildcats. The team is currently coached by Tom Crean.[1]

Facilities

Assembly Hall

The current home of the Hoosiers. The 17,472 seat arena has been the home of the men's basketball team since 1972. The basketball floor is named Branch McCracken Court after the legendary Hoosier coach. The south end of the arena prominently displays the program's five national championship banners. Assembly Hall's unusual construction makes it extremely loud; Duke men's basketball coach Mike Krzyzewski stated after a narrow victory in 2005 that "when they [the Hoosiers] went ahead that was about as loud as any place I've ever heard outside of Cameron [Indoor Stadium]." Indiana Daily Student News Story 12/1/2005

Cook Hall

Completed in 2010, the basketball practice facility is located next to Assembly Hall and connected to it by an underground tunnel. It contains a museum, locker rooms, practice courts, players' lounges, training and treatment areas, strength and conditioning areas along with coaches offices.

Post-season

Indiana has won five NCAA Championships in men's basketball (1940, 1953, 1976, 1981, 1987) — the first two under coach Branch McCracken and the latter three under Bob Knight — and 20 Big Ten Conference championships. The Hoosiers' five NCAA Championships are tied with North Carolina (5) for the third-most in history, trailing only UCLA (11) and Kentucky (7).[3] Their eight trips to the Final Four ranks seventh on the all-time list.[4] The Hoosiers have made 35 appearances in the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Tournament (fifth-most in NCAA history).[3] In those 35 appearances, Indiana has posted a 60-29 record (.681) (seventh all time).[3] Its 60 victories are the sixth-most in NCAA history.[3] The Hoosiers also won post-season tournaments in 1974, the Collegiate Commissioners Association Tournament, and in 1979, the National Invitation Tournament. The 1976 Hoosiers remain the last NCAA men's basketball team to go undefeated in both regular season and postseason play.
