The Big Ten's new rule prohibiting players from professional leagues from returning to college football does not affect Indiana's roster. Indiana added Stephen Daley and Kellan Wyatt back to their squad earlier this month, but a federal appeals court has since halted their eligibility for fifth seasons. Both players are recovering from season-ending injuries and had minimal interest from the NFL, meaning they are unlikely to return this season under the latest ruling. Additionally, Indiana football is preparing for the upcoming season with position previews and fall camp updates.
