Indiana football’s NIL spending remains low despite prior success
Summary

Indiana football continues preparations for the 2026 season without being a top spender in NIL. Under head coach Curt Cignetti, the program is selective in recruiting transfers, signing notable players like Josh Hoover and Nick Marsh. Indiana wasn’t included among the highest-spending teams but remains competitive after winning the national championship in 2025. The Hoosiers also face questions about potential Memorial Stadium renovations. Current projections are being made about the team’s win total and roster effectiveness, as they seek to build on previous success.
