Butler basketball prepares for exhibition game against Indiana

Butler basketball is set to host Indiana in an exhibition game on Sunday at 6:30 p.m. at Hinkle Fieldhouse. First-year coach Ronald Nored anticipates considerable learning from this matchup, as it will be the Bulldogs' first time competing against another team since welcoming 10 new players this offseason, including five transfers. Nored aims to assess how his players fit together and execute game plans, focusing on developing a disciplined defense. Following the game against Indiana, Butler will host Indiana State on October 18 and visit Ohio State on October 25 for their final exhibition before the regular season begins on November 2 against Lafayette.
