Darian DeVries builds Indiana roster with international recruits
Summary

Darian DeVries continues to shape the Indiana Hoosiers' roster with international prospects. This trend includes the recent commitment of Felix Kiehlneker, following previous additions like Aleksa Ristic and Andrej Acimovic. In his second season, DeVries has emphasized international talent, despite mixed results from prior recruits. The addition of Clemens Sokolov, a seven-foot center from Germany, adds depth for the coming season, while eligibility questions surrounding Sam Alexis complicate the center position. As scouting international players presents challenges, DeVries’ strategy may allow for potential development over time.
